  1. I'm using NG & it sells out constantly. I think its dead on!! I have a candle poured I want to try using 415, I will post here after I test it.
  2. Thanks I will give both a try. I do like the idea one one ingredient for everything. The one I just tried from C&S did not work at all.
  3. Has anybody ever used BC van stablizer in lotion? It states its for soap just wondering if I can use it in lotion. If not can anybody tell me where I can find a good stablizer for lotion please? Many thank.
  4. Thanks so much Azure!!! This is what I have been looking for and never found. I ordered 10 just to see how easy they can be filled. Again thank you so much for your help.
  5. Thank you very much for the ideas, I will try some of those. I did try C&S, it gave off a burning smell. I asked different people what they smelled walking into a small bathroom and they said "hot candle or plastic burning". Off to order more samples. Thanks again )
  6. I have been trying to find a strong fresh oranges oil for some time now. I have tried so many and I keep getting the same results, awesome ct but week ht. Does anybody know a supplier that they have good luck with using in 415? Thanks a bunch!!
  7. Would you mind sending one onto me too? Thanks a bunch!! airyacrestables@dejazzd.com
  8. Never used a compatible brands, but always always buy my cartridges on ebay! Then I resell the empty ones on ebay later.
  9. I'm still trying to find some myself. I found some but don't like the red caps. If I find something I can let you know. I am using the malibu tubes now that are a harder plastic and I just thought people would like the squeeze tubes better. Good luck n thanks for the reply.
  10. Did you ever find a place that offers theses tubes?
  11. I noticed nobody listed NG or BCN. I have from both and have asked many people to which one smells like the real thing, they all say BCN. I'm not a patchouli person so I don't know how its supposed to smell, but NG smelled like dirt with some musky to it. Maybe I should try some from another supplier.
  12. I have always got my Chestnuts & Brown Sugar fo from Gelluminations, it has always been a great all year round seller. It is very strong and is a great thrower. They no longer carry it so I'm trying to find another company that has one similar, please help! I did try from 2 other companies and they were not near as strong oob. Thank you so much for your input.
  13. I contacted the company 3 days ago and still no response. I think if a company is going to make a huge change like that we should be notified or the box should be marked. This could really hurt my business.
  14. Oh boy your not going to be happy with your new wax. I got mine from C&S. This is my second shipment of it, and I'm just not happy with it. It has a ivory creamy color, the tops are rough not smooth and shiny and the tops also have a lot of frosting, not pretty at all. Good luck!!
  15. I have been using ecosoya pb for some time now for tarts. Recently the label changed from blue to orange but they are both supposably the same thing. The only change was the label color. I see a huge difference in my tarts, they are frosting and don't have the shiney smooth tops. Is anybody else having the same results as I am?
  16. Do you use mica coloring to get that dark or the liquid? It seems like I can't get real dark colors with the liquid.
  17. Wow awesome job! They look beautiful.
  18. Wow isn't this crazy...When I pour at lower temps I get wet tops. I'm talking sweating that bad I have to store them with a napkin in there for a couple weeks. Then on the other hand if I pour them too cool at slushy stage then the tops get a white powdery top. I already went through adding all the additives and keeping the one that looked and smelled the best and changed nothing since then and now it's changing on its own. I guess it's the soy, it has its' own personality. Back to the drawing board.
  19. For some reason my tops of my candles are turning a lighter color and the wax is like dry and powdery. It seems like the longer they sit the dryer they get. I have some that are older than a year and they look fine, but then I have some that are 6 months old and they are turning powdery. I did not change anything. I use 415 with coconut oil. Now what I'm trying is to not heat gun the tops and see if they stay creamy after a while. The only thing I'm not wild about is sometimes the tops are not smooth so I have to heat gun them. I pour at the slushy stage and the tops stay that way most of the time. Can someone please point me in the right direction please?
  20. How do you get your soaps such a dark color?
  21. I just received the maple walnut from Willow Woods. Boy this one smells awesome. I can really smell both the maple and the walnut. I think this one smells better than the maple walnut fudge, mainly because I can really smell the walnut in it. I'm going to have to look this place up they are out of the same state I am.
