Erin Lea Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 I'm glad you posted this as I just visited their website. Do they only offer 1 oz. samples and 16 oz. sizes? That's a little strange... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nmhoneybear Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 The ones I have poured recently that are awesome are Buttercream Frosting, Lavender Basil, and Coffee Bean. Also renamed All Hallow's Eve and just got a big order for votives. All of their oils smell great OOB! Super strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candlebuddy Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Maybe it's the wax I use ... but they seem to need a longer cure time than other fo's I use. I like to use fo's that only need 4-5 days to cure, with ICS, they seem to need a couple of weeks to cure. Customer service is great .... so is the price.

Scented Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 I like the scents I've used from there and have a few more to test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leisa2003 Posted February 15, 2007 Author Share Posted February 15, 2007 Nice to here good reviews about ICS. I ordered their Vanilla Smoothie, Key Lime Pie. Can't remember the other one! They do have great prices, and I LOVE the fact that they offer Priority Mail....shipping was just $5. Thanks All !!! Leisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to use fo's that only need 4-5 days to cure, with ICS, they seem to need a couple of weeks to cure. Customer service is great .... so is the price. Is this just with soy candles? Or do their oils need cure time in paraffin as well?I'm thinking of placing an order, I don't like bakery / buttery ones (not even a lil bit) but what other ones would you recommend?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erinmfritz Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 I use them mainly, they are in Indiana and I usually get my order the next day. Great service. I have only been dissapointed with one scent from them, Cukes & melons, not at all what I expected. Thay have alot of great scents. I also don't have a problem with scent throw from them.

Candlebuddy Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Sugarysweet95 ... I use a 50/50 soy-paraffin blend ... not sure about 100% paraffin. Based on the performance in my wax, I would suggest Pink Sugar. I did just test Peach Ambrosia aka Coconut Milk & Peaches, and it's very nice ... but it took a 2-week cure time. I found this to be true with the Marshmallow Ambrosia that I recently tested as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
