    Default Electric Candle Warmer

    Has anyone used an Electric Candle Warmer to keep their soaps/lather warm? I was wondering how warm/hot it gets.

    I use one to keep my lather warm. I usually turn it off halfway through my shave, though. Starts to dry out my lather.

    I tried it briefly but I use a stainless steel bowl as a soap bowl (no extra lather bowl).

    Only issue was it got a little too hot and melted the soap! I'm guessing if I can find a smooth base ceramic bowl it will absorb an more evenly dissapate the heat.

    Haven't tried since but I have been looking at a "tart warmer" with a bowl instead. I was looking at these:

    We'll see. If these don't work, we can use them to make the house smell better....

    That tart burner looks like it would get hot if it will melt wax.

    I use a large soup mug with a matching 4" ramikin that nests into it to make a nice little Moss style scuttle. the whole thing looks pretty god and only cost about $8.00

    Hey Allen,

    I have found that a ceramic sugar bowl works nicely for lathering in. Walmart has some for pretty cheap, and more than likely would work with some type of warmer as mentioned. Just a thought...
