  1. TallTayl I am amazed at the wealth of information you have - impressive to say the least. Now I have to Google to see what the heck ASTM is LMAO ! This is the first time Ive heard that . Thanks so much for sharing ! Im eager to test my new waxes + samples of wicks I ordered. I had intensions of doing so last week but life can be challenging tending to the needs of my sons disability - which is moderate -severe I have samples of GB464 + GB415 i have Premiere wicks - CD + CDN's + using the 8oz mason jars from CS .... If any has some input of what size or wick to try first - Im all ears lol ! Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend - looks like summer is here. My rose bushes overnight have gotten buds + my hydrangeas are starting to bloom
  2. Thanks kandkekrazy .... your right about waxes, they all have their quirks. Hmmm ... Im not crazy about Hippie type scents so Im glad I asked about it .
  3. You guys have my curiosity peaked now - maybe I should order a sample of C3 from Fillmore - i use the 8oz mason jars from CS what wicks/size are you guys using. Is Black Canyon really perfume -y though ?
  4. thats interesting ! Ive never used that wax or FO - what containers + wicks /size are you using if you don't mind me asking . thank you in advance
  5. That is so disturbing about the reaction you had - like you said , who the heck knows what companies add
  6. I know this is an old thread but who is MC - natural coconut votive wax ?? Did you ever test it -if so, what did you think of it ?
  7. TallTayl I bet your right about the fragrances not being what we buy retail. Im with you - I'll stick with mine too It really makes you wonder what the heck is in most of the stuff out there for consumers to buy.
  8. Thanks Karen I just received my sample pack of Premiere wicks, Ive heard they work well with the GB464 . Im going to use the 8oz mason jars from CS but noticed Fillmore carries the same ones. Im super picky and I have to say their customer service is great - packed well -quick shipping + they answer questions promptly, what more can one ask for Karen, do you mind if I ask what wax you've had success with in terms of the FO's. I also bought a sample box of the GB 415 - since I heard the HT is great with that one . I agree, the warm vanilla caramel is yummy Have you tried the rain or mountain leaves - those are next on my list to try.
  9. I think its the wax or rather the combination of waxes. I use a descent amount of FO in melts too but don't get the same effect - oh well , i guess thats why they're Scentsy lol ! i do think people view them as the Gold standard though .
  10. Let us know when you open your Etsy shop, how exciting ! Yes, her job is very rewarding - the same students that were once trying to push her away are now sad to see the end of the school year here All best wishes to you ... btw your drawing of the bird ROCKS !!!!!
  11. No matter what wax combo I try it seems that the die -hard Scentsy users in my family seem to always say they don't smell as strong or last as long as Scentsy I always wonder what in the heck Scentsy does/uses to get them strong but not obtrusive + the scent lasts so long - mystery I suppose :- I ordered Rustic Essentials parasoy tart wax so I guess I'll give that a go !
  12. Awesome - Thanks so much ! Cant wait to try this
  13. thanks ! I am for sure gonna try this - so do i melt the oils like in a body butter + slightly freeze then whip ?
  14. Painting is my daughters first love - well, actually painting and photography . She has her Masters in art education + now teaches youth that are emotionally impaired + are from severely dysfunctional homes. This was a huge adjustment for her not to mention a culture shock. The students were "feeling the waters" with her at the beginning - they took one look at her ) she's small + very hipster looking lol + figured they were going to "have fun with her " lol ! They now have an amazing relationship with her + they are all brought together by creating art She LOVES her job + her students ! How long have you been painting ? Thank you so much for sharing with us - very thoughtful of you Best wishes to you - would love for you to post some of your art !
  15. Thanks so much for sharing - I too love sugar scrubs + love trying new recipes. Ive been wanting to try an emulsified scrub - how different would you say they are from a regular scrub ? Hope everyone is having a nice holiday weekend. Today, it's a crappy, cloudy - humid day with rain in the forecast But tomorrow is suppose to be sunny + hot !
  16. Thanks so much AS a side note - i asked Lebermuth if Bulk Apothecary carries their oils , they said yes + BA does carry Patchouli
  17. TallTayl, is PFO Pure Fragrance Oils ? Ive looked through their selections but never ordered. You all have me intrigued about MW + wish I had ordered from them when they were around. They have a Black Vanilla - any one know much about that one in wax. What are the fav's you mention from PFO ? Hope we're getting close for the Tonic FO order Oh .... the PFO Sea Witch also sounds interesting . Hope everyones enjoying the holiday weekend !
  18. Awhile back ago i ordered Rose FO from Sweet Cakes based on great reviews I read about it -Sadly, I did not care for it at all A few others I didn't care for was Flower -bomb + Sweet Yellow Pear from Sweet cakes. The Gypsy rose does sound interesting though. One thing I can say about rose FO is use less than you normally do - in my experience they are STRONG , at least the ones I tested out.
  19. I use CS Cranberry Marmalade but not sure if it's considered a true -tart cranberry. Ive been wanting to try a cranberry + pumpkin pie from Rustic Essentials that Ive heard is really good. Type pumpkin FO in the search bar here + i know theres lots of great information on here.
  20. thank you my friend - your the best have a wonder + safe Holiday weekend !
  21. Thanks so much ! Ive never ordered from them. On a side - note i talked to Lebermuth a few days ago asking about samples + asked if Bulk Apothecary carried their oils - she did confirm that they do carry Lebermuth oils . Thanks again Candybee
  22. Same here..... do you use all soy or parasoy ?
