jakalex Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I use CB135 and these scents have been hit or miss for me. :undecided So far the only one out of what I have ordered that have given me a hot throw is Mulled Wine. Mulberry Spice was very light and Silky V Vanilla had no hot throw. Ginger Bread no hot throw. This is after 2 weeks cure time. I just poured Girls Night Out so will see how that throws in a week or so. I still have a few more to test and will post my results. I add 8%FO around 175 and pour in the slushy stage.

They usually run until Friday/midnight & she usually posts a new sale on Saturday's. And they keep getting better & better!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SliverOfWax Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Why would you want to get in on a sale if the scents don't throw for you? There are a lot of suppliers who have good sales. I would try a different suplier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewOrleansLady Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 I use both JS's 50/50 blends (votives & containers) and tons of her oils...what I've discovered is they must cure about 7 days for the best performance. I use zinc wicks. Now some of her scents, like every other suppliers, are not meant to be strong throwers such as cherish & pink. Her vanilla nut bread, decadant pound cake, totally scrumptious, almond marzipan, lemon magnolia, rhapsody(grapefruit mint), waterlily melon are all super throwers. Becky recommends cure of 4 days but I found the extra 3 days makes a world of difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugtussle Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 I will not wait a week or more for a scent to cure. If it does not throw by the next morning, I won't pour it. When I get wholesale orders, I pour 1 day and deliver the next. I agree, there are a lot of really GOOD scent suppliers out there and it is not necessary to wait for curing.

Kimberly Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 I am with everone else here...no way will I wait a week for a scent to cure. I dont have the time! I buy FO from a couple different suppliers and not one of them do I have to wait for the scent to cure so it will have good throw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissMargie Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Ya know... Becky is an incredible person and has the best possible customer service. She should be the poster child for the correct way to deal with customers. However... I've tried many, many of her FO's and I've had poor performance on most. I make candles both in a soy and a parasoy with only a few of the poor performing oils throwing better in the parasoy. Because she's great, I still purchase about 6 oils from her exclusively (Sandalwood - excellent, Wild Cherry, Old Fashioned Apple Butter - very strong, Vanilla Buttercreme Crunch, Berrie Buttercreme and China Rain - but this one only in the parasoy)... but that's it. I order from Peak, Candlescience, MillCreek and Nature's Garden.Like the previous posters... I too can't wait days and days for curing.

scentsme Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Customer Service can't be beat at JS & her oils work wonderfully in bath & body products:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
