Reed Diffusers are a popular and easy way to scent your home naturally, but you might be wondering how do reed diffusers work? Are reed diffusers safe? How long do reed diffusers last? Which reed diffuser is best? We've got you covered and we're answering all of your top reed diffuser questions so you can learn everything you need to know to feel confident using the best reed diffusers in your home.
Q: How do reed diffusers work?
A: Reed diffusers work by the natural rattan sticks soaking the oil up the stick and then diffusing the scent into your space. Every Brightfield Reed Diffuser Kit includes a glass bottle with natural diffuser oil and rattan sticks. The reed diffuser oil is a blend of non-toxic soya-based glycerin, essential oils, and fragrance. To use a reed diffuser, simply open the diffuser bottle and insert the rattan reeds into the liquid. Flip the reed sticks once wet, and then leave them inside the bottle. Allow 1-2 days for the fragrance to soak up the reeds and scent your space. Flip the reeds once a week or as needed to refresh the scent.
Q: How many sticks do I put in the reed diffuser oil?
A: It's up to you! Our Reed Diffuser Kits come with 8 natural rattan sticks. You can either put all of the sticks in the oil at one time or less sticks, depending on how strong or subtle you want the scent to be, or on the size of the room.
You may adjust the strength of the scent depending on how many reeds you use. Use all of the reeds at one time for the strongest scent. For a more subtle scent, use half of them at one time and then replace the reeds when the liquid is halfway done. For example, put 4 sticks in the oil and then 3 months later, remove them and add the other 4 sticks.
Q: Are reed diffusers safe?
A: Brightfield's reed diffusers are safe for people and pets because we only use natural, non-toxic ingredients. Our diffusers are vegan, dye-free, sulfate-free, paraben-free, and phthalate-free. While our reed diffusers are safe, this isn't the case for all reed diffusers out there. Traditional reed diffusers with conventional ingredients are usually filled with chemicals and irritating fragrance, which is why it's important to buy natural reed diffusers. We're proud to make natural reed diffusers that you can feel good about using in your home and with your family. We love using them in our home too.
Q: How long do reed diffusers last?
A: Our natural Reed Diffusers last 6 months with proper care, depending on humidity levels. To help your reed diffuser last, keep the reed diffuser out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources, which can evaporate the scent, change the scent profile, and impact how the diffuser performs. Always keep the diffuser reeds free of dust which can clog them and prevent proper diffusing.
Once your reed diffuser is done, you can get a reed diffuser refill on Brightfield.ca
Q: Which reed diffuser is best?
A: Our natural reed diffusers come in a variety of scents so you can discover which scents you love the best. We love choosing what reed diffuser to use based on our mood, how we want to feel, and what room we're using it in.
