How many times have you, or your teenager, placed a hot curling iron down on a surface that can't handle high heat? In high school, I used to do my hair and makeup on the floor in front of a large mirror, and burned my bedroom carpet in several different places. When I finally upgraded to a vanity, my curling iron set it's sights on the plastic top, which quickly deteriorated.
There are tons of heat safe mats for hot tools these days, but we've found using a countertop sample protects your surfaces while adding some texture to your space.
For $29 from a countertop haven like Cambria where the sky is the limit in terms of design, you can add some dimension to your vanity or bathroom counter to protect your surfaces from your hot tools. Granite is a highly durable material that can withstand high temperatures, while heat on marble and quartz surfaces shouldn't exceed 300 degrees.
