I third Berts!!.....smells great in 6006 and palm wax(HT and CT) and you surely can't beat the price
-
OMG...48.50 for a lb of the yuzu FO?????????? theres no way I would spend that kind of money for any FO...no matter how good it is...yikes!
I feel for ya Lyndsay...you could end up going broke trying to make this one customer happy.
-
I agree with xxxx ...at least it's what i would do...i would make her a whole new order but ask her if she could please send the other back since she doesn't like it you may be able to sell it to someone else.
I made a yuzu room and linen spray for someone in the wsp scent and she actually liked it so everyones sniffers are different....what one person loves the other will say ewwww lol
wsp does have some really nice scents and then theres a few I can't stand and was totally dissapointed in...thats why I always get the 2oz bottles to try out becuase the prices are pretty high to begin with even with the free shipping.
I wish CS had yuzu...they are pretty much my favorite place for FO's
-
I baught a small 2 oz bottle to try a few months ago from wsp and I don't like it at all.
I thought yuzu was supposed to be a Japanese grapefruit scent but this stuff smells nothing like grapefruit at all...kind of a chemical smell to me.
-
WSP's is really nice but I can't get a super great HT in 6006 wax.
Smells great in a room and linen spray.
I'm gonna have to give BCN a try...I love Home Sweet Home scent
-
oooooo they are so pretty! I love the bling
-
CMS has an Orange Dreamsicle that throws great in 6006 and I also made a room and linen spray with it using his room and linen spray base which I had sprayed in my car and it lasted for a very long time.
It's one of my favorite scents and his is the yummiest I have found so far.
WSP has a good one too but CMS is stronger and better imo
-
pretty sure it's candlemakerstore
-
Looks like quite a few of them sold out pretty quick. I prefer the fruity and spicy stuff.
I got...
Lemongrass(can't wait to try that in candles)
Cinnamon Plum
Granny smith Apple(anything apple seems to be a big hit around here)
Fig Pear
does anyone know how any of these oils perform in 6006 wax? or glassglow palm?
and some wicks
I wanted to get a few of her regular priced oils but airhead me forgot
-
Yep! it's working now....get them while they are there!
some are already sold out
-
I couldn't find a phone number anywhere on her site. If she did her phone would be riging off the hook right about now lol
Can you imagine how she must be getting bombarded by emails right now? I sent her one at around 12:15 ....no response yet
oh well.....hopefully if its not fixed today she will extend the sale
-
That sure can be annoying.
CS is another really good one. They give pretty good descriptions of the oils and I love the leaf rating they use on the strength of the FOs.
ps....if ya got any extra happy pills..please pass a few this way LOL
-
hmmm i see what you mean, i clicked on apricot which was showing at 3.99 but when i clicked on it for 16 oz it is saying 6 something.
then when you go to put it in the cart it's up to 11.48 lol
-
Yes....I'm sure she will fix the problem....just hope I can get back on in time before all the good ones are gone
I hear good reviews on the lemongrass, I really want to give that one a try along with a few others
-
The sale prices are showing up on the first page with the names and discriptions...it's when I click on a particular scent and try to put in the cart is where the probs are happening...
-
Thats what I did Dee....not working
Well at least I know I'm not going nuts and the only one having a problem with the site lol
-
It's just the limited supply oils on sale? I can't seem to get the sale prices on any of them.
I tried for the lemongrass....supposed to be 4.99 a lb but when I go to click on the put into cart part it says 6.49 and then when i add to carty it goes up to 11.48????? huh???
I logged in thinking that may have made a difference...no go
I cleaned out cookies and such...no go
I did try to email her to see whats up.
I love her FOs....prices are great even at regular price but really wanted to stock up at the (EDITED == Please stop putting specifics of sales in posts.)
anyone else have probs with adding to cart?
-
They are all so pretty!
I especially love the Angel.
-
I tried the crushed corn cob a while back and personally I did not like the turn out. The oil just didn't seem to soak all the way through and even after a few days soaked right through my sachet envelopes.
Thecandlemakerstore.com has a sachet base very cheap. They are lightwieght greyish looking granules that work very well and soak in the FO pretty quick and perfect for sachet envelopes or bags(that you can't see through becuase they are not very pretty looking).
Aroma beads work great and perfect for jelly jars and organza bags but they are a bit more expensive.
I just recently made my own sachet envelopes and used this base and so far it working out great...holds the scent very well.

I test burned my tester this morning.
Good news and bad news for me....no fuel smell on these! lol
bad news....not much CT or HT and it really doesn't smell much like a nice pepperminty candy cane scent....has almost a coconut smell :rolleyes2
I used 6006 in a 2 oz and a 6 oz tin. HTp 41 in the 2oz and cd 6 in the 6 oz...they burned well...not too high a flame or anything but dissapointed that I didnt get that peppermint scent I had hoped for.
Going to try Berts again and use less fo as suggested. I have some 6006 wax, glassglow palm wax and also 464.....
back to the drawing board!
-
I wish it were just my sniffer soylights but everyone else here said the same thing....ewwww that smells nasty! lol
I'm really crossing my fingers the cc from RE is a winner.....will let you know within the next week...I want to try and be patient and let it cure for as long as possible
until then...it's tarts and Room and linen sprays for me
-
oooo dixie that sounds like a great scent
I usually like adding extra cinnamon to the pumkin souffle but the coffee scent idea...yummmm
CS hazelnut coffee fo is another good one....very strong HT and CT in 6006
-
Thecandlemakerstore sells glassglow at a pretty good price....well it was cheaper about a week or so agao and the prices just went up recentley but you can buy 1 lb sample sizes...5 lb bags and up
-
Same here for me.....just test burned my candle with berts CC using IGI6006 ....1oz fo to a lb wax ....small 4oz hex jar with 2 inch diameter top and no dye....waited about 5 days for it to cure. also used a cd # 5 wick and another one a htp 41....no luck oh and also a votive with an htp41...same thing...yucky fuel smell
My tarts smelled beautiful also soylights....what a great scent this is....for tarts and sprays I had no problems. A perfect not too overpowering peppermint and I was so sure it would work but nada.
I have an order coming today from Rustic essentals and am getting 2 free 1oz fo samples which one of them I picked the candy cane...it claims on the website that it throws great in soy....but who knows....I'm about ready to give up on making candy cane candles and thought it would be a great xmas scent.....well at least the tarts smell good but not everyone likes using those burners...some just like candles.
I'll let you know in a few days of curing on the sample....I have a little bit of palm wax, I may try doing a palm wax candle and see how that goes.
What I really really loved from Berts and it throws great in the 6006 is the Dark chocolate mint....don't smell much mint(mostly chocolate) but yummmmm does it smell great
