  1. Oops, I always forget that's more than one place that can be used in that abbreviation ! I actually meant The Candle Source
  2. I placed a tiny order to try them out and also because they were the only one offering a Funnel Cake oil with no cinnamon, lol. I am in loooove with these oils ! I only got an 8 oz Funnel Cake and 2 oz Candy Corn but both smell awesome and now I want to try more Any scent recs ? I prefer gourmand / foody or fruity but I'll consider any recommendation because I do like to switch it up here and there
  3. My fave pumpkin so far, and yes I have used it in soy is TCS Pumpkin Creme Brûlée.
  4. Is my new fave mint ? And I haven't even put it in wax yet ! It is sooooo delicious smelling. It smells like the mint part of Ande's Candies. I seriously need to make a batch of tarts in this today so that I can quit inhaling it from the bottle. That can't be good for me ?
  5. Yes, it is outstanding !! I can't wait to get it in some melts and see how it performs ?
  6. Okay I got them ! Now this is only an OOB opinion, since I just got these today, but I loooooove both oils ! The Cotton Candy Super Strong is awesome, smells like it should. The Cotton Candy Frosting is my favorite. It smells extremely realistic, even more so than the super strong ! i don't really smell much frosting in it, but, like I said, it's OOB only so far.
  7. I have Just Scent's Cotton Candy Super Strong & Cotton Candy Frosting on their way to me tomorrow...I'll update when I get them super optimistic, since I have and love their Blue Cotton Candy and they seem to be highly recommend here.
  8. All natural bubble gum ??? Lmao wow....I mean, how ?? Just...wow. I'm actually speechless
  9. I absolutely agree, I feel like it's deceptive and gimmicky
  10. Yes, it does. I am only a hobbyist so far, but if I ever sell down the line, I absolutely refuse to use gimmick style marketing ! As as someone who enjoys buying candles and tarts from etailers, I usually tend to shy away from sellers who use those tactics. I feel like, if you have a quality product with quality scents / blends, why resort to such things ?
  11. Yeah, I saw that when I was ordering It's just the regular Cotton Candy, not the twist one
  12. I was initially a bit annoyed because I used to experience super fast shipping from WSP, but the last few orders have been a bit slow for my taste. This time, for example, it said 1 to 2 days, but it wasn't shipped for 4. I definitely don't like to focus on the negative, though, and I usually love their oils. This order was no exception This is only an OOB review because I just got my order ! The hit of this order for me, if I * had * to choose, would be Coconut Rum Cake ! If this scent sounds appealing to you, by all means, get yourself a bottle ! It is divine and spot on. I've warned people here before about their Pink Sugar and Warm Vanilla Sugar, multiple times. They share this awful, odd note and smell nothing like the originals. So, I was hesitant to order Hello Sugar, which I loved back in the day, for fear of the same. I ordered the smallest bottle, 2 oz. I wish I ordered a lb ! Luckily, this is spot on ! Mmmm, how I missed you, Hello Sugar ? Green Apple is delicious, juicy and extremely realistic smelling. Their Cotton Candy is outstanding ! It smells almost exactly like MMS's ! Jelly Doughnut is so realistic, you wouldn't believe it ! You can smell the powdered sugar in it, even ! Blood Orange is pleasant, but I got the fragrance oil version and I like their essential oil version much more. Chocolate Devil Food Cake is kinda odd, lol. If you smell it from more of a distance, it smells great ! If you get to close to the bottle, it smells weird. I have a feeling it will be great in wax. I got it to blend with things like mint or coconut, anyway. So, initial disappointment over shipping aside, I am absolutely thrilled with my order ! Hope this helps anyone who is maybe contemplating any of these oils !
  13. Idk if my phone is acting up or what, just saw that my original reply to this posted, but now it isn't showing up, so I apologize if it is to everyone else, lol I use The Candle Source's Pink Sugar, it's my go to PS ! Yes for that blend, I do 50 - 50
  14. Thanks so much for the wick suggestions ! I will be looking into those
  15. Oooooohhhhh good to know, thank you so much ! Will definitely be ordering some soon
  16. I've only tried the Red Banana & the Ooey Gooey Caramel, other than VV...they are top notch ! I've always wanted to try some of their others too, Raspberry Cordial in particular. What are you thinking about trying ?
  17. Thanks for the reply ! That's a good point, I used a blend of Vanilla Voodoo & Pink Sugar
  18. Okay I am test burning my second attempt parasoy candle after last week's near disaster, lol. I only used the standard 6% FO & wicked down this time instead of up. while I am much more pleased this time than I was last time, the flame is still a bit haywire for my taste. Nothing crazy but not the perfect burn. Yet, if I wicked down lower, it wouldn't burn evenly, it might not now, as it is. in my last thread, someone ( so sorry, cannot recall who ) mentioned that they never use CD with parasoy because it burns too hot, so I'm thinking that's my problem right there. So if any of you can suggest a great wick for parasoy, I would appreciate it like you wouldn't believe. I really want to make this work, I love the perfect tops of these and how nicely it accepts color. For reference, I'm using ProBlend 600 container blend. Thanks in advance, guys !
  19. Yeah that's the only downside, they are way pricey ! That's why I'm hoping JS cotton candy will be a good alternative, lol. I feel you on the vanilla coconut ! That is a tough one to fine ( a good one anyway )
  20. I've only used their Cotton Candy so far, & it is by far the best I've tried yet. Very realistic, none of that fake, plastic note that a lot of others have ! I've tried it in palm & soy so far, good throw, especially for a cotton candy ! I especially love it in melts & it is DIVINE blended with a bit of blood orange ?
  21. Melts really are that easy ! It wouldn't be anything that's unsafe or ruin her warmer at all, just follow the wax's guidelines on fragrance oil load, temps, etc. They are so fun to make. Get yourself a wax made for tarts and some molds or little plastic jello shot cups with lids and you're good to go
