Do i need to put water in an essential oil burner?

i got this burner and i know underneath goes the tealight candle and the essential oil goes on top...but do i need to add water first and then put drops of essential oil? thanks!Do i need to put water in an essential oil burner?
No water - just put about 5 or 6 drops of the oil and have it in a place that you can see it so you make sure the oil doesn't run out. It should last quite a while though. You'd be amazed how the smell fills up a room - they are great!Do i need to put water in an essential oil burner?
No. Water is not needed. Also note that water and oil don't mix with a heated source and can become a burn or fire hazard.
yes put the water in first then add a few drops of essential oil, putting the oil in direct will dry out too soon and possibly crack the burner
Yeah you fill it up with water about 3 quarters full and then add about 2 or 3 drops of essential oil. Enjoy!





P.S. My husband tried it with just oil, and it got black really quick and started stinking. The water heats up and helps the oils to evaporate, you don't want to burn the oil!
No
