Disclaimer/Disclose.
All wax I have purchased, or it has been sent to me in swaps that I do. I try and remember and disclose that information. I am never sent anything for free from the vendors
These are my opinions and mine only. This is not meant to influence your purchase just to share with you my experiences with vendors
I will never, won't ever and have never bashed another vendor. Sharing my experiences both good and bad is not bashing.
I do not believe in Ass wax. If the wax is going to throw it's going to throw. No wax should need more than 2 weeks from pour date to fully cure.
Yes, I am a vendor. I have been purchasing wax and candles for as long as I can remember. I do love to share my experiences. I enjoy wax and candles and will continue to make my own and purchase, but I will never review my own here
I have a tendency to yawn when I get talking. Not sure why I just do! I'm sorry in advance
Things that drive me crazy.
No vendor or scent name on labels. This is basically advertising and why wouldn't you do it? Plus, if I get or send to someone else and they or me want more, how do they know who to buy it from?
All over prices. I have been noticing vendors lately have 2 ounces of one shape for a certain price, then the same ounces of a different shape for a different price. This is a huge turn off for me
Restocks that only have certain quantities and the sell out right away. I have no tolerance for that and just won't order
Vendors who take a single scent and make it sound like a blend. I feel like this is duping your customers and shouldn't be done. People who do empty videos, who are also vendors, that review their own product.
Vendors who get involved in other people's drama.
I use the following warmers.
20-watt Happy Wax warmer in my office
20-watt glade warmer in my family room; Currently no warmer here
20-watt Happy Wax warmer in my kitchen
20-watt glade warmer in my son's room
20-watt Scentsy Stargazer warmer in my bedroom (Light Bulb)
25-watt Happy Wax warmer in my living room
15-watt scentsy warmer in the laundry room bathroom
15-watt scentsy warmer in the main bathroom
The opinions I put here are my opinions/experiences only. I fully urge each and every one of you to form your own opinions/experiences on vendors for yourself by placing an order and getting a DE-stash. Candles have many aspects to them and if I say I had a hard time burning one candle that doesn't mean the rest from the same vendor will be like that.
