    I do hate the dimples. It does bother me. I thought I could deal with it lol but it isn't cute. I think it's just us that worry about it but it is bothersome. I am thinking of blending it with another wax. Trying to figure out what. What I mean by looking perfect is that it doesn't get weird like some waxes. I just want smooth.

    Hi I haven't been on lately so I'm just seeing this. I haven't had any trouble with fragrances. It does age well. Stays looking perfect and the throws get stronger. They are already strong but they intensify even more.

    Magnetic stirrer machines work great. I hate stirring.

    I use KY133 and it is matte. It has a great hot and cold throw bit is expensive.

    I know this is an old thread, but I have questions. Can you just ship all fragrance oils UPS? The price between the USPS and UPS is similar. I had no idea there was a certain way we had to do it. Someone told me it matters.

    Yes that's what I meant. You buy the bottles of dye and refill the tanks. It I'd Epson original ink. I don't buy thr offhand because it voids my warranty. I heard it could break the printer too.

    I have an Epson 4700 Ecotank. I use it a lot but haven't to replace ink yet. I print a lot of color too. I am going to buy the original tanks though because you can get it for like $30 for all the colors which shipping included. There's a trick to it you just look on eBay and put it in your cart and then they'll send you a discount. I get discounts all the time because of that. I thought that was weird but my daughter said nope they usually will send you a deal.

    I clicked the link and looked at the website. I had to see if they were really selling those crooked wick candles and they are for $26. It says they're sold out. That is insane. I get so upset when people do not learn how to make candles and just sell them. Candle making is an art and so many people cheapen it.

    I have that one too. I can't find anything close to it either. I am so upset with their clean scents. I won't use them. They need to bring our stuff back. I'm hoarding the Strawberry shortcake too.

    I have the Peak that Keystone doesn't have like Lime Cooler, Cornucopia, Cabernet Grapes and some others. I think Keystone doesn't restock it because ahe bought what was left. I heard several reasons on how she got Allen's fragrances. I never tried that scent but it sounds great. I love honey.

    I called AFI last week. The lady told me it is still 10 pounds you would have to buy. Are you talking about Peaks? I have a lot of them and Candle Science originals too. If there are any you or anyone else might want to get duped please let me know. I even have Candle Science, Mistletoe and Blue Spruce.
  13. ShelleyF
    Ok thank you.

    I did see that. I don't have that kind of money 50 lb is steep. I wonder why they're making it so hard? I'm glad I asked because I did not know that it would be entirely different. That's very disappointing but I do thank you for letting me know.

    Where do I buy Leubermuth fragrances? I know I can buy them on their website with a $600 minimum. I know the Chemistry Store and Bulk Apothecary sells them. I was told that Symphony Scents sell some of them. Does anyone know of any other places that does? Thank you

    These have a metallic front and back. They have a clear window but the sides are metallic and the backs are as well. They come in several sizes for each color. They would definitely be big enough for snap bars it's just a lot of people use the cheapest bags they can find. These are much nicer than what most people use.
  17. ShelleyF
    I would love the metallic bags at Clear Bags. I use them. They come in several colors.

    I'm in TN but am originally from New Orleans. I still have my accent. The food is so good there. I have the vanilla voodoo but don't like it much. It is like CS very vanilla. I have it too. I just use it as a mixer until I run out. I like BC Vanilla Extract. I am working on a New Orleans line. King Cake, Strawberry Daiquiri, Magnolia, Pralines, Beignets are a few I'm doing. Not sure how many yet.

    It smells like a very strong coconut cracked open. It's like the juice hits you in the face. It is kind of like pink Sands but different. Pink Sands has a strong hit you in the face too. It is not a wimpy coconut.

    Sweet Cakes has good fragrances. Mad always has good fragrances and so does muddy soap. The chemistry store does have great fragrances. Those are Leubermuth fragrances and they are top quality. A lot of people like candle cocoon but I don't find them very strong and impressive. I think it's a company you either love or hate. There's a smell in her fragrances that I do not like. You can usually tell where a fragrance is from after a while because they all have a certain undertone to them from different suppliers.

    I don't use fragrances that don't last long. I do hear you on that because it's important that the melts last. If a fragrance doesn't perform properly I get rid of it because there are too many fragrances that work great. One of the fragrances that is a huge Powerhouse is from Bitter Creek and it's called Coconut Bay. A lot of coconuts are not strong but that one is super strong.

    I have bought Bulk Apothecary and Nature's Oils before second-hand. I know BA is a manufacturer so it's cheaper. Is it the same strength as Nature's Oils? The fragrances I bought were all great. Nature's Oils is a lot higher and offers "free shipping". Pure Seduction from BA is $38 plus shipping and from Nature's Oils is $59 "Free shipping". I don't fall for free shipping but I do love the Nature's Oils one a lot. I haven't tried the pure seduction from BA yet. Anyone know?

    I hate Aztec. Maplestreet, Studio. I heard Midwest is weak. I haven't tried pure fragrance oils yet but plan to. WSP is strong. NG is too. I like Fragrance Buddy, Keystone, Essentials by Catalina, Muddy Soap and others. Brambleberry is great. I get scared trying new companies but heard Batch Escentuals is good. Nurture Soap is great. I hate Indigo.Flaming Candle has some I love but I don't find a lot of them super strong. But their Honolulu Sun is great and cocoa butter Cashmere is too. Virginia stepped up their game and I'm finding winners there too. Natures oils is great but expensive.

    Wax Drops

    ShelleyF replied to MommaD's topic in Wickless

    I did buy those little pastilles but the throw wasn't very good with them. I did like how little and cute the beads looked. But the throw wasn't there.

    I bought some silicone mats to try it out. It was actually pretty easy. You just take the scraper and move real fast to get all the holes filled. It was very fast and I laughed at how easy it actually is.
