Nature's Garden or Peak Candles

 

[HoneyLady]

I like Peak candles. Super fast shipping, super nice people. They worked with me on wicks -- 100% beeswax takes larger wicks than recommended for blends. We went back and forth on sizes, materials, and cores, and they sent me stuff to try. I like their scents, their wicks, and their tech. Haven't tried Nature's Garden, but I do hear good things about them.

Good luck!

CS has the best fragrances, and labels whether they are phthalate free. MCsoywax.com (Millcreek) has all phthalate-free frags too and some AWESOME frags. I can pick up my wax at Peak... so I use them for convenience sake - but I personally hate their frags. Bleh! Wicks - CS. What else? Oh - pick up containers at Peak. Shipping is an awful price to pay for jars from anywhere. LOVE the wick stickers at Peak though!!! Nice and thin and adhere really well. Anything else? Now candles I know about everything on............Soap... well I am learning.

I've only made wax melts, but used candlescience, when I placed a fragrance oil order, 10 pounds of wax added to the order was about the same price for shipping, and with their new west coast warehouse I had the order the next day. I love their fragrance oils, haven't found one that doesn't really stick. I want to try peak for fragrances too, that is on my list.

If it says "Body safe" you can use it in soap. However, no matter what they say, confirm that they are free of the dirty 4 (propylene glycol, sulfates, parabens, and phthalates). I am surprised at what I find in some "body safe" frags!

CS is awesome. Period. So is Millcreek. Shalisk, yes, local - and yes, head over there and enjoy! (replied to your pm). I wouldn't waste my money on frags from Peak though... IMHO
