someone at candlescience is having a laugh sending this many packing peanuts with like 2 gallons of items

oh absolutely! Flaming Candle is local to us thankfully, and the store pick-up has been a lifesaver. 😭 I'll gladly take pick-up > $60-$100 shipping for my large orders. I wish Candlescience was closer to us because HOLY have I fallen in love.

Soy wax with the CandleScience fragrances. I like putting herbs and stones to decorate them all pretty like 😍

There’s a black liquid dye I like from CandleScience. If you’re using soy, it still won’t make them truly black (more dark gray) BUT when they melt, the melt pool is black and looks really cool.

There are a number of other fragrance oil suppliers, but CandleScience is top-tier in my book. A lot of scents from other suppliers tend to smell a bit 'soapy', while CS's are always sharp, pure, and strong.

Their customer support and shipping times are excellent, too.

Ohh that sounds lovely. It'd be fun to try some blends of hay/grass and honey fragrance oils to see if you could get in the ballpark. Candlescience has inexpensive testers if you'd want to try it out sometime.

holds up my heat gun threateningly

give me the fucking tins, candlescience.

Here's a low effort/cost solid perfume recipe:

1:1 Beeswax to Jojoba Oil
8-10% fragrance with an oil from CandleScience, (check skin-safety, Category 4, on the IFRA report).

(Measure all by weight!)

Gently melt together in double-boiler. Boom. Done. Smell.

candlescience dropped their spring-summer FO line and I want to try ALL OF THEM

Yeah, we're in PA so Candlescience is too far away. Candles & Supplies has been wonderful here. Their scents are great and they carry our wax too.

Candle making day. Trying out my new Candlescience wax melter too! Making 15 candles to sell for donations to my WalkMS. #candlescience #walkms

I just finished another small group of black candles. Gorgeous! And they smell so good! I blended Candlescience fragrance oils Rosemary & Sage, Nag Champa, and Obsidian in a favorable ratio. Love this! #witchsky #pagansky #candlemaker

My purple “bleeding” pillar candle. Smells like Cs Nag Champa. So good! #CandleScience #witchsky
