Sorry I misunderstood you I thought you were looking for a supplier that carried both skin safe and candle safe oils. I didn't understand that you wanted one oil to be both. I know that there are many out there are many that say candle and skin safe. I make both as well however I also have very senstive skin and pay particular attention to the oils I use in my Bath and Body products. I do use seperate FO's for candles and tarts.

Good luck in your search.

Am I missing something here?? Saveon scents lists all the different grades of oils as well as MSDS sheets with the flash points; information that is vital to candle makers.

From what I have seen they have the most extensive list of FO and Designer Types.

I am mostly interested in any info on :

https://shop.the-common-scents.com

Thank you

There are some similarities. never ordered from either. Looks like save on is less expensive, however, I am intersted in quality and consistency.

Skydreamer, will you let us know what you ordered and what you think of the scents? I was attracted by the number of "dupe" type oils.

Thank you,

Mary Lou

I am trying to find out if anyone is familar with this company. They have only cosemetic grade fragrances, and seem to have an enormous amount of "DUPE" type fragrances. From Victoria Secret to Clair Burke.

Has any one used The Chemistry Store Diffuser Base?

What do you think about it?

I would also welcome any comments on DPG or any other suppliers base.

Thank you so much,

Mary Lou

Bless you heart. Thabnk you so much. I have been looking for this for days.

Mary Lou

Does any one know of a supplier that carries a Green Tea FO (Elizaberth Arden Type) ? I have been searching for several days to no avail. Or does any one know of a Green Tea FO that is comparable?

Thanks so much,

Mary Lou

I've gotten both the 4oz and 6oz from acandleco. Had a problem with some of the 6oz tops - the wooden holder not separating from the inner metal cap. He quickly resolved the problem! excellent customer service at a great price.

Question??? Why would you want the metal to seperate from the wooden collar? It was my understanding that the metal collar was there to keep the FO from saturating the wooden collar. Please explain because I just purchased som of these and want to be sure I am using them correctly.

Mary Lou

I am sure that you can devide a scent individually. However, I only use one scent at a time because I start getting headaches when I try to work with different scents at the same time. Guess I am weird!!

I wrap my tarts no matter what I am putting them in. If you don't they have a tendency to scar...no matter if you are using soy or parafin or an combination. I just like them to stay pretty:grin2:

Shea/Mango Body Butter

Morning Glory's Shea & Mango Body Butter

Gloria Lewis, Morning Glory's Candles & Bath, Iowa

• 61% Distilled Water
  
• 3% Glycerin

• 5% stearic acid
  
• 6% E-wax
  
• 5% macadamia nut oil
  
• 2% soybean oil
  
• 5% apricot kernel oil
  
• 2% golden jojoba oil
  
• 3% mango butter
  
• 3% shea butter
  
• 3% cocoa butter
  
• 1% t-50 (Vitamin E acetate)
  
• 1% Germall plus

I usually make this a gallon at a time leaving it unscented. I take out what I need and then add .5% to 1% fragrance oil. I used 1% Cucumber Melon fragrance oil for this. I feel that I could have done with half of what I used. This is a very strong scent.

Bev, I just sent you a PM.

I have thought about these but after the idea of sweat soaking into them I don't like the idea. I guess it should be a one time use item because of the sweat,germs and B.O.

Thay are hand washable:D soap and water work well...then rinse very well.

Many of our local hospital's and large business have Vendors in their lobbies selling various products. I set up last week at our local VA Hospital and sold

$868 worth of candles, tarts and tart burners in one day. Their fee for allowing you to sell is 10% of sales. I am now on their Vendor list for 2 days per month. I don't know if I will sell that much every time I am there. But you never know.

Mary Lou

Their products are generally overpriced.

Does not say much for their business ethics.

Mary Lou

I do the same I try to make the outside match the fragrance.

At Christmas time I found some really nice (inexpensive) boxes

and used them for the holidays. Wrapping them with wired ribbon.

Mary Lou

That's not so far away. Actually we will be relocating to Citrus County, Floral City. We are in the process of Building a home.....then I can retire and devote myself ,full time, to all my crafts !

Mary Lou

Mary Lou, where in Florida are you?

St. Petersburg:cool2: ...where are you?

Check your Yellow Pages under paper products. I found one in town that I buy all my boxes, bags and other paper products from. If he does not have what I want he pulls out catalogs and orders for me. I find him to be very reasonable and I save on shipping.
