Once again, Candledancer's Candle Corner on Facebook made me do it. They shared a 50% off coupon in the group and I decided to dive in and try out Colonial Candle. I've many people rave about their scents and how clean their burns were on the candles. I've many mixed reviews on their simmer snaps aka wax melts. I wanted to try them for myself.
I had got a mix of sale items and full priced products to try out. Their glass tealights are 1 oz for $1.98 USD with a burn time of up to 8 hours. Their votives are 1.7 oz for $2 USD with a burn time of up to 17 hours. Their simmer snaps are 2.4oz for $4 USD and come with 6 cubes.
All I can say is that after smelling all of these on cold sniff I am highly impressed! I loved every single one with the exception of one scent. Check out the haul video below!
Below I have listed all the scents and their descriptions so you can read them for yourself.
Yesss, yesss. I know back to back wax hauls, but I'm slightly obsessed. Wax anonymous much? Any who, here's my first of three (hides face) Yankee Candle hauls. Thanks to Candledancer's Candle Corner and Scented Wax Retails groups on Facebook I've found a new liking for Yankee Candle.
Yankee Candle had their $1 tart and votive sale, but that was in store -- however they did have some type of online coupon code so I used it to try out some of their products. I got a total of 18 tarts and 8 votives.
Votives and tarts both retail for $1.99 USD each. The votives are said to give up to 15 hours of burn time and you get 1.75 oz (49 g) of product. Tarts have a fragrance life of up to 8 hours and you get 0.8 oz (22 g) of product. I think since the votives and tarts cost the same that the votives would be better off used as wax melts because you get double the product and can make anywhere from 2-4 "tarts" from one votive. I'll be using mine as tarts. Check out the haul video below!
I have listed all the items I got below with scent descriptions as well.
Soft Blanket - Wrapped in sweet dreams . . . a lullaby of clean citrus, luxurious vanilla and warm amber. Sun & Sand - A tropical beach breeze of sweet orange flower, lemony citrus, fresh lavender and powdery musk. Angel's Wings - Spirits rise on this beautiful, airy aroma of joyfully sweet spun sugar, heavenly sheer flower petals and divinely smooth vanilla. Wedding Day - Always in good taste . . . a sophisticated and soothing blend of florals and subtle fruits.
Thanks to Candledancer's Candle Corner on Facebook I have learned about a "new-to-me" candle company called Goose Creek. I've heard many things about their wax melts having phenomenal throws, scents and being very soft. They had a 40% off wax melts and 50% off candle sale, so I jumped on band wagon to try them out for myself.
I wanted to try out their wax melts because they normally retail for $4 USD, but paying $2.40 USD was a much better deal. You get 2.1 oz of products, 6 triangle melts and an approximate 50-80 hours depending on usage.
In total I purchased 16 wax melts and I must say I love them all with the exception of 3 scents which on cold sniff make me wonder why I purchased them. I have already melted one scent -- Vanilla Wonderland -- and will have a review coming soon on that scent. Check out my haul below!
Below is everything I got from my first Goose Creek order ever! Check these out on their website for yourself, you'll love them all!
Here to share yet another wax haul with you all. Went to Walmart to food shop, but ended up buying wax melts and a candle. You know how that goes. You go for one thing and come out with every other thing you didn't intend to buy. That wax section was calling my name.
Excited to try out these beauties and get some of these burning. Especially that Cotton Candy candle. On cold it smells freaking awesome, so hopefully it burns amazingly since it has so much oil on the top!
Below I listed all the items I got for those who are interested in purchasing them too.
Today I am sharing my Walmart and Walgreens wax haul. I purchased a few candles, a new warmer and a ton of melts. I was on the hunt for a new wax warmer that was anywhere between a 12 to 18 watt warmer because I have some wax melts that dissipate with scent to quickly in my 20 watt warmer.
Of course while in the wax aisle, I definitely had to grab a few melts -- obviously. I also heard about a buy one, get one free deal at Walgreens on Patriot Candle items that a subscriber mentioned so I definitely wanted to go snatch a few candles I've been eyeing for myself and my mother.
Below I listed all the items I purchased in case you are looking to find these scents for yourself.
Today I'm here to share my Kringle Candle haul with you all. I'm super excited about sharing this with you all. I have already tried a few scents, so expect reviews coming soon! I placed this order earlier this month when I had a 30% off coupon courtesy of the Facebook group, Candledancer's Candle Corner, that the owner of Kringle shared it in.
I ordered a bunch of potpourri melts and daylights because I am new to Kringle and wanted to try them out. So far, I'm impressed with these scents on cold sniff and in my warmer.
