Debra Phelps Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 Oh, they got some good ones. Apricot has to be the strongest I have smelled in soy. Tested it today and it was strong. No curing this one. Exotic, White Coral and Pink Nectarine, nice, Tropical Nector, nice, Berry Bramble, had to add some strawberry to kick it up, but it smells good, Sex on the Beach smelled like flowers, wasn't impressed. Gardenia Lily was not even close to B&B, Poppy and Papaya was kinda nice. I love their White Cake. Hoping it is strong in soy. I will tell you when I test all of these. I love the Apricot. I can still smell that one. I am an apricot freak. It smells just like it. Just thought I would share, while I am going thru this change to soy thing. It is getting me motivated again. Maybe it will you too. Quote
Stella1952 Posted April 2, 2009 Posted April 2, 2009 I like Lone's Star's FOs a lot, but haven't tried the ones you listed. Time to go shopping... Quote
LeahRB Posted April 2, 2009 Posted April 2, 2009 I love, love, love their French Market and Hawaiian breeze. Awesome oils! Quote
Sylvie Posted April 4, 2009 Posted April 4, 2009 I'm glad to hear about the apricot; I've been looking for one for a long time. Some of the ones I've tried had a weird pukey note. Lone Star does have some good oils-I just wish they were closer to me for shipping. Quote
Debra Phelps Posted April 4, 2009 Author Posted April 4, 2009 Ok white cake and tropical nector is weak. The others seem fine. Yes try the apricot. It smells just like one to me. It will be a good blender too. Quote
Shawnee Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 Their cappucinno brulee is pretty good as well. Quote
tamese Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Stella you seem to know alot when it comes to the art of candle making. Just wondering if you could give few tips. What's a good container wax. I use IGI 4636, but I have a lot of wet spots, and I noticed that if I add vybar that my hot throw it better. Is IGI 4630 A BETTER WAX. I use 1.75 ozs. per pound of wax. Tried it with less, but it's not as loud. any help it appreciated. Sorry if this is the wrong place . Quote
