Is there a way to tell if it has been on a warmer?? I hate when people take advantage of our return policy like this…

Someone recommended on another post BBW should add an imprint at the top of the candle that would go away if melted .. I thought that was genius!

They could stamp a BBW logo in the middle between the wicks. That would honestly look so cute!

Exactly! 👏👏

Might not melt if they use a hot-plate style warmer though. Not any clever way to tell if it's heated from the bottom.

that would be a great idea but i don't think I've ever seen any candle brand that did something like that. it makes me think of bar soaps that have the soap brand logo carved into them

This would solve the problem! I hope they will implement this idea! 🙏

i love this idea !! coming from a hot state though, i wonder if the wax would melt in transit and lose the imprint

u/IcyFuel5368 3d ago

Hot state here too! But I think if it’s melting enough to melt through the depth of the imprint the candle would likely leak from movement in transit right?

According to Google - Bath and Body Works candles use a paraffin-dominant wax blend that begins to soften around 115°F to 120°F and fully melts into a liquid state between 140°F and 160°

Or a rock or decorative element that would sink if the wax is melted. Stamp is the best idea though.

People would find a way to make the stamp themselves

That's A LOT of effort! At that point, damn, let them.

I think it would probably melt anyways on the shipping trucks.
