AngelaVA Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 I am looking to place a sampler order with Daystar. I've fantasy shopped there before, but never actually bought anything, lol. But here is what I'm looking at, so any reviews would be great. I want to get two samplers - 10 total. Help me narrow down and feel free to suggest must-haves.

Scented Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 I can give you one. Blackberry jam cookies. Yummah!! Strong. Very strong in paraffin (cold). Haven't gotten to burn a tester yet, but this is definitely a scent to cheer about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutlandishLady Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 You MUST get the Blackberry Jam Butter Cookies I also like the Peach, Vaniglia, Vanille, Kitchen Spice, Brown Sugar & Fig. Ooh La La is yummy. The Indescribable is my new fave though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelaVA Posted August 8, 2006 Author Share Posted August 8, 2006 Thanks for all the reviews. I'm excited to place an order. Feels kinda like Christmas, lol.So, is the Stone-Washed Cotton similiar at all to Yank's Clean Cotton? Is it similiar to anything else you've smelled from another supplier? I don't want the CC that has that floral note in the background, like Mc High Cotton. I already have that. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sawyer's moon Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 I'd have to go home and sniff Stone Washed Cotton..it's been a while...Jen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WYJen Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 The only one on your list I've tried is Kitchen Spice- and it's yummy!!The two others I would suggest (I've only tried tried a few from there) would be the B&BW dupe of Honey and Shea and then Purple Mist. They're both great and do well in candles and b&B for me. If you want a suggestion of what not to get, stay away from Watermelon Martini. Doesn't smell like watermelon anything- smells like dirty feet/socks to me-lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimberly Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 OMG Blackberry Jam Butter Cookies..A MUST!I bought a pound of it at the Texas conference and it is already gone..not just in wax sitting on my shelf this one flew out to wholesale accounts and regular customers. My wholesale accounts have already called placing orders for more because they are out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debscent Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 As always don't judge OOB, I bought Hey Hey Cute Cabana Boy and hated it OOB and in wax, it's wonderful. Her oils take on a new life in wax...Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 LOL on the Starry Eyes. I go back and forth on that one. Then again I did that with any of the FOs I've gotten from her, sooooooooo I thought I would try some more ;P (Turquoise, Hunter's Moon, Mimosa Breeze and more BJC <- all of which I put back at the TCC - > ) A good description will likely hook me every time :rolleyes2 And I was trying to behave.

scentsme Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Daystar's Buttercream Frosting is the absolute best out there! It is scrumptious! You will stop looking for the perfect one, after you try this one.The Raspberries & White Roses is a beautiful combination. Really, really nice.BlackberryJam Butter Cookies: I agree with everyone else : GREAT!I did not like the Creme de la Creme, personally. Vanilla Bean Noel is awesome! Vanille Banane is SO Good! I didn't expect to like a banana scent, but this one is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissyK Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Hi everyone,I've been ordering from Stacy at Daystar for awhile. I started ordering candles and B&B products from Texas Charm and all of her FO's are awesome! I particularly love her Buttercream and Tres Magnifique in her body butters. Her buttercream is the best around! I also recently tried her Better than Sex Cake FO and it is awesome! You really can't go wrong with any of her oils although I haven't tried the Sophistication line yet. Here are some I love:Buttercream FrostingBlackberry Jam Butter Cookies - awesomeTres Magnifique - tried in body products - awesomeSpice Market Lace Gloves - very unique - You can actually smell the tea cakesParadise - Very strong - Makes me think of sitting on the beach with a margaritaSun Kissed Mangos - great mango scentBaby Bouquet - great baby powder scentBetter than Sex Cake - new fav of mineCake Batter - didn't think I would like but she sent me a free clamshellpack and it is good!

MissyK Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Texas Charm Bath and Body is Stacy's other company where she sells candles and B&B products. It is a cool website. www.TexasCharmBathandCandleCo.comThis is where I first discovered Stacy's products and oils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisajo Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Thanks for all the reviews. I'm excited to place an order.

I don't want the CC that has that floral note in the background, like Mc High Cotton. I already have that. ThanksTo my nose, Stone Washed Cotton doesn't have a floral note. It's just SUPER strong and clean smelling. It smells absolutely wonderful in CP soap. It's my daughter's favorite.Wood Coffee has awesome cold throw in 100% soy but the hot throw was only fair :undecided It's still a very delicious smelling scent.Black Vetyver Cafe is TDF in CP.Cohere de Vahine (you know what I mean, although I know I'm not spelling it right ) smells light OOB but packs a powerful punch in CP.
