Vanilla Lace (dupe)


Recommended Posts

Candles:

wax: CBL-125

fo load: 7%

wicking: went up one size

container: glass, 8oz jelly

cure time: about 48 hrs

CT: very good

HT: very good*

*This is a very nice dupe, subtle and lovely, but not weak. I like to mix it with just a bit of Amber or musk to give it some punch. I highly recommend it as a non-bakery or foodie vanilla.

 

Tarts:

wax: KY 133

fo load: 8%

molds: Sillicone shapes

cure: 48 hrs

CT: strong

HT: moderately strong, long lasting*

*great as a background scent.

Soap:

CP soap: about 40% animal fats, 60% veggie fats

fo load:5%

lye solution: 30%

cp op (I always do), no addatives

acceleration: no

discoloration: yes, dark beown

morphing: yes, plastic smelling after cure

dry throw: moderate (and yucky)

wet throw: moderate (and yucky)

I was so sad, this just didn't do well in cp soap for me. Luckily, there is M&P!

 

Soap:

M&P soap: NG crystal clear base (which wasn't crystal clear, btw)

fo load: 3%

addatives: 5% cocoa butter, 25% liquid oils, 50% raw sugar*

discoloration: dark brown

dry throw: super strong

wet throw: super strong

*This was an amazing solid sugar scrub. The sugar and the cocoa butter took the fragrance to the next level! Soooo good! I didn't even care that it turned a horrid brown!

 

lotion, perfume, etc. : yes, all of it! Super strong in lotion at 1%, wonderful perfume at 10%

Used in wax melts and home-made spray perfume (20-25% fragrance oil, 75-80% Everclear) also blend with Pure Seduction.  Second that, it's a great dupe.  It really comes alive in blends.  This seems to be a thicker oil than the other fragrances. I used to mix the VS versions of Pure Seduction and Vanilla Lace perfumes, and honestly the FO's smell about the same.  Tends to melt light in tarts though.  So far all the customers I've had that buy it say it's a dead-ringer for the original VS perfume.
