Other than Element B&B who carries SFIC suspension shower gel and m&p?
-
Selling online. I put my soaps in cello bags at first but it seems to me that it affects the scent? How about wrapping the soap in paper?
-
So I ended up getting the folllowing - IMHO OOB
Morning Glory & Honeysuckle - Nice
Clean Breeze - Not sure about this one
Sugar Cookie Brulee - Nice and strong
Angel Whispering - Light but nice
Fairy Dust - Does smell like much
Ice Capade - Nice Peppermint
Creme Brulee - Will be good in B&B
Tobacco Caramel - I don't smell the tobacco or the caramel but it is a nice soap scent men - Any other name for this?
Rockin the Star - Exact same FO I get from Daystar - Nice and strong
Mango & Mandarins
Vanilla Champagne - Really Stinks
Hawaiian Breeze - Reminds me of Origins Ginger
Wild Musk - Bad

I just bought some kraft soap boxes. Should I shrink wrap my soaps before putting them into the boxes?
-
I get these requests all the time. I don't think it is worth it in most cases the blog followers never buy anything. Everyone has a blog these days and wants to do review...it is just a way to get free stuff.
I got a request from a 10 or 12 year old just a few days ago.

I can assure you that I am extremely careful, I shred everything before putting it in the trash, I have security on my computer, no one has access to my credit card info but me, I don't answer junk e-mail.
I had to replace this credit card early this year for the same problem, since then I have used it only online at Nashville Wrap, e-Clamshell and SKS because they do not take Paypal.
I have ordered from Nashville Wrap many times before an never had problems but I just find it funny that I placed an order with them yesterday afternoon and over the night my card was charged 13 times?
-
Check your credit cards - Just got a phone call from my business credit card company, someone got my number online AGAIN.
My Paypal account is fine and I only use this credit card online for supplies.
Yesterday afternoon I made a purchase at Nashville Wraps. It is the only place I have used it recently since I pay everything with Paypal.

So far on my list:
Sugar Cookie Brulee
Downy Clean Breeze
Rocking the Star
I already have Baby Grace, Best Friends (fruity), Bermuda Triangle, Island Fresh and Satin Sheets
Their Autumn Wreath is very nice - Only made tarts with it. I have Aspen Winter but I have not use it yet OOB it smells a little weak.
I think I need an FO intervention.
-
I need to order from The Candlemaker Store and NG. I only have a gazillion FO but I am in the mood for something new.
Any recommendations on best selling FO good in soy and B&B.
-
I never had a problems with The Candlemaker, their oils are very good and strong in wax, they don't work for me in soy. However I no longer order from Creative Illuminations or what they call themselves these days. Their oils used to be very good a few years back but my last order over a year ago took 2 weeks and their oils were weak...and their prices are crazy.
-
I got Honey I from Daystar, I thought it was pretty weak and not cheap. I will see what NG comes up with.
-
I checked SOS but they don't have it any idea where I can find this FO?
-
Lemon Ginger from ICS is nice - For straight Lemon I like Backwoods Lemon Blush.
-
USPS has lost, misplaced, damaged my mail and packages more times then I care to remember. They even returned one of my package to the sender for no good reason. Talking to them gets you nowhere because they never have a clue.
I also had tracking numbers that did not update until the packages were delivered. I would give it a few more days.
You have 30 days to file a claim with Paypal.

I don't know if it is a success story but from 2005 to 2007 I did make as much money with my candle business as I would have working outside the home. It was not enough to support myself and my husband's job paid the bills.
But now in this economy my income has dropped by 2/3. I am glad for those who made it big but I don't think that there are that many in the candle and B&B business.
-
Their fo's are great but they never worked with soy. They make great wax tarts and pillars and worked well in 6006.
-
I convert the oz in ml
4 oz is 118 ml x FO %
-
I have it, VBN is a nice scent but JS is light...very light.
-
Lotion candles done right contains very little soy, they are mostly butter and oil, with no color added. You use the same fragrance oil you would use in a body lotion in the % recommended by the manufacturer.
This type of candle does not burn hot enough to burn a person unless they stick their fingers directly into the flame.
To give you an example the hot paraffin treatment you get at a spa is much hotter.
-
I could be wrong but after looking at their website I was thinking it could be gelluminations/creative illuminations. I recently placed an order with Onlyfragrance.net OOB the FO's all smell weak to me.
-
I have a lot and I do mean a lot of Pumpkin FO from many suppliers, can anyone recommend a good seller for Room Spray.
-
The Candle Source smells delicious (and works in Soy) but I have not tried KY.
-
Cure time varies from scent to scent. I stopped using this wax for tarts but I remember that at some point I was mixing 25% of container wax in it.
-
The Vanilla Hazelnut is very good - I also like the Hollyberry.
Ah/re favorite Christmas
