  1. I should not have ordered a lb of it before trying it. I have got to stop doing that!
  2. That's better than trying to explain it's real name.
  3. This is it at the end of it's 8th long burn. MP is 1/2" deep, may look deep, but it's just the pic. HT is getting really good. The wicks get little mush balls, I think they are from the 6% SCR, I'm going to try 4 & 5% next.
  4. I think we've agreed to send the 1ozer of gold to AFI, after OG tries it. I really, really wanted to send it to FCC, but I had such trouble getting HT with their fOs in my wax. Their scents are wonderful smelling OOB, strawberry is the best I've smelt, better then Sweetcakes Strawberry but can't get any throw. It's a shame, but not switching waxes at this point. I bought straight from AFI to see if their Sugar Cookie Royale is the Moonworks Dupe, it's very, very good at 6%, think could go down to a much lower %. My sniffer is really off right now, so I don't trust myself & will be getting opinions on it, as soon as I can get samples sent out. Which is looking far off from the way I'm getting things done. I'm taking some to puma, who will give to OG & then she'll get it done! OBTW, Sun & Earth from FB is not so good, I can't stand sniffing it, BLECH. At some point I'd like to send the 2 FOS to you to compare. If that's ok.
  5. The problem with using a big wick & trimming it shorter to make it work is: what happens if a customer doesn't trim the wick that short & the wick gets huge & something awful happens. It is a pain to keep testing, but customers don't always follow instructions to trim short. HTH
  6. Let them cure longer, or it could be the FO doesn't work with your wax. It's much easier to replace an FO than a wax system.
  7. How about a small amount of a pillar wax instead? Even beeswax, just enough to harden it up a little bit.
  8. Yes, it's awesome. I was going to send to FCC for duping but decided to wait until I'm done testing all of their fOs I bought..
  9. I blend it with 4786 because I've tried everything else with it. I tried almost every other wax & combo & this one worked.
  10. Yes, Sugar Cookie Royale. Such a different burn today, I lit it at 12:15 & still low MP & barely any HT. I may have trimmed wicks too short. Ecos are self-trimming so maybe I messed up.
  11. It looks perfect to me. Everything is beautiful!
  12. The depth & width of the MP is slowing down due to hardening & curing. Ht isn't overwhelming either now so may need to go up. Have to wait & see.
  13. What's new with your confuzzion, HEEHEE! I'm using 464 in the tureen, 4627/4786 in madisons, Palm in status. But of course that could change at any minute. i'm not the one that does parasoy. Thank-you again, it is so beautiful!
  14. Sweetcakes, Scentworks & Fragrance Buddy I get the peanut smell. They are all good but no.......
  15. This is after the 3rd 3 1/2 burn, got sleepy so I stopped it. The wicks did get tiny mushroom balls by the end, I don't care for those. Maybe with the richness of this SCR I need to lower FO%.
  16. She's really. really good. I don't care for all of them, but most are awesome. You really have to follow her %s because if you use too much, it can distort the scent.
  17. Maybe, my nose is screwed up, it's so light I can't catch the scent. I'll set these aside for awhile & then resniff.
