Even though the bottle says ok to use on plastic I won’t recommend using them on sunglasses – I’ve found the best way to clean those is just warm water and soap, that way you don’t ruin any protective coatings! If in doubt on what you can use this on, I recommend a small patch test. It’s relatively easy to find at a lot of places like Amazon or the Container Store. They have a few other products that helps remove fine scratches from plastics but I haven’t tried it. You can use a soft cloth to wipe it off but I find paper towels work just fine. It works on Truffle Pouches and The Daily Edited Clear Bags as well. My favorite cleaner I’ve used is the Novus Plastic Clean and Shine spray to clean makeup bags and acrylic makeup boxes and drawers. If you have any clear makeup bags you know they are finger print prone and it’s just a matter of time before you will see smudges from brushes or just dirty fingers in general.

How to Clean the Plastic on Clear Makeup Bags Some like to add boiling water but I’ve had the sticker labels melt off the sides from burning candles too long so I avoid using water that is extra hot. It won’t clean out the excess stuck on the sides and if you have any burned remnants it won’t come clean with freezing. You can definitely try it but freezing will only pop out the wax if you have a large chunk at the base. Others have suggested freezing the wax out. If you didn’t have a clean burn you might have to repeat the steps a few more times, this one didn’t have quite a clean burn: Sometimes stubborn remnants won’t come off the first round. If all the wax doesn’t come off just repeat until it all comes clean. Let it soak for a few minutes for it to soften then wipe out with a paper towel or re-scrape the sides (depending on how much wax there is). To clean out the sides and excess wax pour a small amount of dish soap into the jar and add hot tap water to soften the rest.

If the wax is too hard you can soften it by adding hot tap water and let it sit for a few minutes. Having a beveled tip makes it easier to hold and maneuver than a flat knife. I bought a set of four from Amazon and they work perfectly to get excess wax off the base and sides. If there are large chunks of wax in the bottom around the end of the wick you can scrape it out with a small rounded butter knife. What I do is quite simple! All you need is Dawn Dish Soap (although any dish soap will probably work), a small butter knife and paper towels or a small sponge. If you have a Byredo or Jo Malone candle or anything with a label that has a paper surface or doesn’t have that coating make sure you don’t get the exterior wet.

I’ve found the clear glass jars from Diptyque have the most sturdy labels so if you get them wet it will still stay in tact. There are many ways to clean out the excess wax from candle jars but with luxury candles like Diptyque, Byredo or Jo Malone you need to take a little extra care to keep the labels in tact. How to Clean Out Diptyque Jars Without Ruining the Sticker Label I’m asked almost daily about Diptyque candle jars, brush cleaning and clear bags I thought I’d cover those in a roundup today. I thought I’d cover some frequently asked questions for beauty cleaning tips. The struggle to keep things organized is very real and it requires a lot of constant re-organizing to prevent things from just staying in piles on the desk or floor.

I receive cleaning questions quite frequently even though truth be told I’m a messy person.
