  1. BCN has one that is a room, body, hair spray! I sell a ton of this since it is a multi-purpose spray. It does need to be shaken before each use so I bottle it in frosted bottles so you don't see the separation. I just order the Js and I like that one as well but linen only.
  2. I wasn't happy with the Bear Claws. But I do like Chestnuts and Brown sugar Cherry Limeade Green tea Toffee macchiato Banana Berry Smooth Delightful berry Bergamont Lavender Orange Chiffon Cake Rhapsody Cotton Candy Vanilla Buttercream Watermelon Buttermint Candy Most of the Drink Oils are really good. Just to name a few!!! I am sooooo going to order more for only a dollar!!!
  3. I made tarts out of this and just pour my first candle with 70/30 and love it! I sold all my tarts and have request for more. But I have noticed I have two different groups of customers the one side that is my clean,floral and musk customers that would hate it. Then my fruit and sweet customers and they all love it. The scents I never want to pour again is Jasmine or citronella! I just about hurled. Suzanne H
  4. I just did my first pour with 70/30 and Joy Wax. I don't have a heat gun yet so I placed the jars in the oven. They were pretty hot when I poured the wax but I could handle them with my hands. The 70/30 turned out beautiful! Not wet spots beautiful tops and everything. The Joy wax was one big wet spot! The whole candle was awful. Then I realized I wicked the 70/30 wrong I used Zinc wicks instead of Eco. The 70/30 still had a wonderful scent throw with the Zinc wick but didn't get a full melt pool. I also tried the cb-30 but could never get it wicked right or get a hot throw! At-least I have mastered tarts! Suzanne H
  5. I use bcn suspending shower gel not the Aloe. Everyone seems to like it and it stays thick and holds the wax beads. I was checking out Essentials and they have the same pics for the products as JS I thought that was weird.
  6. Don't order from Mill Creek! They are really hard to close. I ordered from one company(can't remember and they were awesome) Then I ordered 100 from Mill creek and hate them. They are really hard to close so you mess up the wax trying to get the lids down.
  7. I wish I had your strength. I can never order less the 10 Fo but I am usually up around 20. Then I come on here and see the sale and buy more! I have fo pouring out of my cupboards.
  8. As I was ordering a sample pack from Daystar I found Vanilla Coco Type. It says in the description it is vanilla coconut! I also order the coconut macaroon and the coconut vanilla from Nu scents. One of these three have to be a good one. If not I guess I will try mixing. Thanks everyone!
  9. I will try that company, do you recommend any other scents? I have a really good sweet vanilla I wonder if I could just add a REALLY strong coconut. So far I haven't found a good coconut either! Any one have a good Strong coconut???
  10. I have had a few people request this scent. Its a dub from Bath and Body works(white barn) Thanks Everyone! Suzanne H
  11. those are wonderful! I love the Olive Blossom. I am still trying to master container's! Scared to venture out to mold candles but when I see how beautiful they are its tempting.
  12. I love NG Ginger Peach!! I can't say as far as the dub though since I have only smelled it form NG.
  13. I really like the scent as well. I use the one from NG and just renamed it Monkey Bubbles. It seems to pull everyone in to smell it and it is a big seller for bubble bath. Suzanne H
  14. I most of the Bnc bases and they are awesome. Especially the Body and Hair mist, I sell a ton of it. I have used some of their oils but only in B&B, tarts and simmer pots. For the most part I have been very pleased with them. Suzanne
  15. I just started doing these and love them! I get my bears from Micheal's for $2.00 and sell them waxed for $20.00. I forgot to add they are 12inch short hair adjustable bears. They also have long hair for just under $5.00 non-adjustable.
  16. Does it have to be EO to work or is it the scent and a FO and be used? I have a pregnant mom that wants nothing to do with EO's.
  17. I only do one pour but I use a different wax. You will have to do a batch and decided if you like how they look. Suzanne H
  18. That is a lot i shipping! I tried the Green-leaf 70/30 it was good but the shipping would have been to much for me. I kinda feel like a pay a lot to ship from Swans but I figure when I start making a lot I could just drive there. of course with gas prices right now not sure if I would save that much What are RRD's??? I got a same kit from Peaks that had CD, Zinc, HTP and LX So far LX and HTP are my favorites but after awhile I just get them all messed up! I have a hard time trying to figure out which one is better. I honestly still haven't done good with containers 3 inches or more! Do you both add vybar to the wax as well? Thanks I really need the help!! LOL
  19. I have tried a couple different waxes and also love the cb-30 I use it in my tarts! Swans claims their shipping is really good to places all over. If you don't mind me asking I have been trying to branch out and make container candles and I just can't seem to find a good wick for the cb-30 wax. Any help would be appreciated. Suzanne H
  20. I just bought some oval votive holders and wanted to make some votive that would fit in them. I was wondering if anyone has ever seen a mold for these? Thanks! Suzanne H
  21. The only reason I haven't tried WSP is because their shipping cost and I don't order anything else from them. So it is really double the price. Here are my findings so far. Bnc bubble bath turns very watery and doesn't bubble well. The BNC Aloe shower gel bubbles ok but doesn't last long. It does hold the FO and color and doesn't thin, so I will just stick to it as a shower gel. The JS LIQUID GLYCERIN SOAP BASE Bubbles really nice and they last long and it stays thick after FO. Thanks for all your input!! Suzanne H
  22. I just received my bubble bath from BCN and it is so runny after I add FO and doesn't bubble:mad: . I was wondering if any one has tried Natures Garden or Just Scent?? Thanks Everyone Suzanne H
  23. I get my Cb30 from Swans and love the wax. I am test burning my candles I made today. I did Pink Sugar in the Triangle jars and Blueberry muffin in the Square 3 inch. So far the LX 30 worked the best in the triangle but I had a huge mushroom! Still haven't found a good wick for the square ones I have tried HTP 104, C-85, C-70. Just can't seem to get a good melt pool. I currently have the LX 30 burning in the Square since it seemed to do good in the triangle. How long should it normal take until you can really smell the candle? Suzanne H
  24. That makes perfect sense. I just tried it and it worked perfect. Once you have the wick-container-wax figured out do you really need to re-test with every scent?? Suzanne H
  25. Thank you so much, Since I have already have the wicks tabbed I will just cut the tab off? This is a really great idea! I can't wait to start.
