Canadians.... Canwax?
Linnyeg replied to BrandNewToCandles's topic in General Candle Making Discussions
I've only ever had one small problem with canwax (wrong lids to the jars) and even with that they went above and beyond in fixing it. I'm very happy with their customer service. I've only ever dealt directly with S.J (which stands for Sarah Jane). -

There's a co-op going on on Soapsaver right now http://www.soapdishforum.com/soapsaver/auctiondetails.php?id=112649 for cocoa butter, mango butter & kokum butter. The minimums havent all been met yet, and i'm in desperate need of more cocoa butter! If you have any questions, direct them to coop@unicornsoaps.com and Patsy will help you out!

Looks like an expensive marble counter! I like it!

Looks good!!! I didnt mind you talking my ear off, really!!
-
Fruit slices from Peaks really smells like fruit punch to me!
-
Back when I used V, I found that 36-24-24 C worked well (it burns hotter than the zinc)
-
www.etsy.com might be a better place to check (I havent actually searched there for candles though) It's similar to ebay, but for only handmade items and supplies.
-
it sounds like m&p to me, but it's mislabeled still. That's not all of the ingredients.
-
I do an emulsifying scrub, so no it doesnt leak.
-
I use the condiment cups. You can get them at sam's club for dirt cheap and they're awesome!

I buy from both Canada and the US. It's not always about price, it's also quality, how fast I need the scent etc. Sometimes my orders from the US can take 6 weeks to get here.

I've used fo's from Peaks, Canwax and VCC without problems.

I've got a Canadian shea butter co-op going on right now if you need to stock up! -
I've got that one too!! it's the greatest thing EVER!

I have to disagree that if it says delivered it is delivered. I ordered from one of my regular suppliers just over a week ago (she's about an hours drive away) It was shipped in 2 boxes and I got the second box today (it was shipped yesterday) the first box was shipped last Friday. She checked the tracking today and apparently the first box was delivered on Tuesday and REGO signed for it. Who's REGO!? I dont know but he sure doesnt live here. So now im waiting to see what happens next, but I really wanted that shipment for my show this weekend!

I use the little condiment containers for my samples. I got them from Sam's Club and they were dirt cheap!
-
Was this directed at what I said?
-
I find it's much easier to weigh all of your ingredients. It weighs the same melted as it does solid.
-
yep, peppermint eo in lip balm works. Dont use too much though!
-
I wholesale! check out my site www.lindsayscandles.com and pm or e-mail me if you're interested in more info.

Unrefined for me! and only from Agbanga Karite.

If you're looking into doing any print advertising I really recommend www.indiefinds.com i've already done an ad in BUST with them, and will be doing one in NEET shortly. There really are some awesome opportunities.

I love your labels! They look awesome! It looks like your weight says "4oz container". You have to have the weight of the product on the label, not the weight including the container. So put an empty container on your scale, tare it, and then put on a container with your product in it and it'll give you your product weight. hth!

I personally dont have anything against lard in soap. I dont use it though, because my local bulk oils supplier doesnt sell it. They do however sell palm. I also dont want to turn away any potential customers!
