  1. I just found Aztec Candle and soap supplies today. Has anyone tried FO or anything from them? They have a special 5 1oz for $5 so I thought I'd order some to test out.
  2. It just helps to know where to start from more experienced people's input. In reading through other discussions on here I've learned quite a bit and made some orders based on reviews and advice I read on here. I just can not recall anything about Northstar Candle Supply.
  3. Has anyone used FO from this company, Northstar3c Candle Supply? I see they have soy based and ultra strong FO. I use 464 so am wanting to try different suppliers to see what works well. So far the best have been from Candlescience. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
  4. I just found the suppliers and abbreviations post! So figured out what BB, RE and SOS is. I used to make melt and pour goats milk soap with FO from Brambleberry. I didn't realize they could be used in candles as well. My favorite from them is a tobacco FO I used in a melt in pour shave soap and the goats milk. It doesn't smell like tobacco how people would think it's a very fresh masculine fragrance.
  5. Jenni Wix- What is BB, RE, and SOS? I'm still learning all the different suppliers so don't know all the abbreviations yet. And thank you for sharing your experiences with the 444 and Cocowax. It's all extremely helpful. There is so much more to learn than people realize and definitely a lot of trial and error but I'm enjoying learning! Forrest- I have not heard of Community Candle, I will look them up. And I have seen a lot of people talking about Natures Garden so have looked at their fragrances but haven't ordered yet. Thank you!
  6. Hi everyone, I've been making and testing soy candles for a few months now. I've been using 464 and FO from Candle Science with CS 8oz tins with Eco wicks, eco 10 seems to do best. I've also made a few 464 melts that I haven't tested yet because they are curing. Some of the FO have good CT and barely any HT. Some neither. I tried to pick which ones I tested by reviews left by people using 464. I want to try some other suppliers and would love to hear others feedback of what suppliers they like for 464 and why. Thanks! Also if anyone has blended another type with the 464 for better HT they would share would be great too. I've read some people blend 415 with 464 for better HT and also some people blend coconut wax with 464 for better HT. Hoping to get some insight from others experiences.
