dirtybirdsoaps Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 I am getting ready to place my first order with them and was wondering everyones opinions. They will be used in 100% soy and cp. So far Im looking at the pumpkin cornbread and maybe the woodland breeze, and the cinnamon buns but didnt know if it actually smelled like cinnamon buns or not? Any advice would be appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel91805 Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Would you smack me if I said to just buy one of each? I don't use soy....but I do CP and paraffin.

dirtybirdsoaps Posted August 27, 2007 Author Share Posted August 27, 2007 OH NOOOOO!!!!! Thats not a good thing LOL I see myself going broke and my husband turning red I have such a problem with the "what if" factor that I always wonder "well......what if I really like it?" so I have such a hard time buying samples so I usually end up buying 8 oz or 16oz LOL Do they offer discounts if you buy a certain amount?

Angel91805 Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 I don't think so...at least not like Peak does where if you order 5 bottles you get "x" amount off.....But, Connie always seems to have a sale of some sort going...I think there's one going on still now. That's why I ordered the three I did! Check the supplier postings down below....Always happy to feed an addiction!Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DosGardenias23 Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Speaking just for the fragrances (not for their performance, as I've only used them in bases so far), my favorites of those I've tried are:pink pepperberrypear vanillagreen tea rosered currant & thyme teawhite willow & tea Hmm, noticing I'm gravitating twd the "tea types" ... anyways, I think these are all great.Sarah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LovelyLathers Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 I only do cp and have tried a lot of them. I love them all. I love the honey gingerbread, backwoods blue, pumpkin cornbread, pink pepperberry.. I could go on and on about Connie's FO's. Great customer service also.

CBE Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Tropicali Tango ROCKS in CP. It's a grapefruit scent, with vanilla base notes. Awesome. Discolors to a light tan though. Did not accelerate on me, it actually seemed like it took FOREVER to trace. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DebbieTX Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 I am so in love with Backwoods Blue!! I'm hoping it sells like crazy because I love pouring this scent and burning this scent. I haven't felt that way about a scent in a long time. I love the Pumpkin Cornbread also and have added that to my line. I also added her Pink Sugar and it's great as well. I use a paraffin blend. All are super strong throwers for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moca Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 I make HP soap and paraffin container candles, votives, and tarts. I love the following from Backwoods. Lemon Tart, Breeze in the Keys, Tropical Tango, Tropical Fusion, Honey Gingerbread, and Pumpking Cornbread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luci Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 I've found her descriptions for the fo's to be very accurate in regards to testing in cp, etc. I also notice that a good many of them now have reviews written by customers that are helpful. Those of you that have been around for a while will recognize some of the customer names and know that these folks are being helpful and honest. As a newbie to cp, I'm playing it safe right now with fo's that behave, and I depend on being able to trust the reviews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
