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.
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.
Candles.
Brand: Smoke Odor Exterminator Candle
Scent: Maui Wowie Mango
Thoughts: I actually really like these candles; they always smell great while burning. I'm honestly not sure if it actually takes the odors out of the air, but a good smelling candle is a good smelling candle. This one tunneled really badly at first, it took a while to get all the wax melted.

Scent: Imagene's Cafe
Scent Description: Serendipity Coconut Cream Pie Fresh Picked Strawberries
Thoughts: I don't believe the “Must cure for a year” with this vendor. This one is from 2017 and it had no scent. I truly believe that this vendor skimps on the fragrance oil on purpose. She was so popular that it didn't matter, people still buy.
