"I always feel safe ordering from here"
I’ve ordered from this site a few times now and honestly... I’ve never run into anything weird or sketchy. Everything just feels straightforward, which is nice. It’s one of those places where I don’t really have to second-guess it, I feel like I can trust them.

"Good supplies for a beginner"
Ordered a few fragrance oils and wicks after reading the notes. Helpful. The scent descriptions were close too. Not vague or confusing. Which I needed, honestly. Everything arrived packed well. Labels were clear. My candles burned way better than my first batch with other supplies. Still learning, but this made it easier. I’ll order again soon.

"Could’ve Used More Variety"
I was kind of expecting there to be more sample options, since that’s usually how these things go, but there were still a few good ones that seemed worth trying. Not a huge selection, but I did find some useful picks

"Pretty good order overall"
Got all the oils and jars I ordered, so nothing was missing which was nice. One of the labels was a little bent, but not a big deal. Overall good, I'd order again

"Consistently Good Wax"
I’ve ordered wax from candlescience a few times now, and it’s been really consistent. It arrives clean, melts nicely, and my candles come out smooth without all the random problems I’ve had with other waxes. some of the issues I dealt with before feel avoidable now that I’m using this.

"Good wicks, but not always consistent"
I’ve ordered wicks from candlescience a few times now, and compared to some other suppliers I’ve tried, they’re easy to order from and the shipping has been reliable. The wicks themselves are mostly decent, but the burn results haven’t been as consistent as I expected. A few jars burned really clean, while others tunneled even after I tested different sizes. I also wish the wick guide lined up a little better with what I was seeing in my own candles. Overall, they’re not bad at all, but compared to a more predictable setup, these definitely took more trial and error than I hoped.

"Good perks if you keep coming back"
I’ll say this, the rewards and discounts do make a real difference, especially if you shop there regularly. It kind of makes you wonder why the better deals seem to be tucked away for people already in the loop, but once you figure it out, the savings are definitely worth it.

"Made Candle Making Feel Way Less Intimidating"
I’m still new to making candles, but candlescience made the whole process feel a lot less confusing. I already had a feeling they were the better place to learn from, and after using their wick charts and fragrance info, I feel like I was right. The guides are clear, actually helpful, and way better than just guessing and hoping things turn out okay.

"I’ve liked the stuff I’ve gotten here…"
I’ve liked the stuff I’ve gotten here so far, so I’m assuming the quality is consistent. That said, the prices seem to run a little high across the board. I’d still buy again, just probably not as often unless there’s a sale.

"Not quite the quality I was hoping for"
I ordered a few of these jars, and while they’re usable, they weren’t as nice as I expected haha. A couple had slightly wobbly bases and some tiny scratches, and the lids didn’t fit as snugly as I’d hoped. They do the job, but for the price, I was a little disappointed with the overall quality.

"Nice once I figured it out"
The cold throw was really good right away. The hot throw took a little testing, but once I adjusted a few things, it turned out nice.

"Showed up eventually"
It took a bit longer than I was expecting, maybe a few extra days or so, but it did finally show up. Not a huge deal, just kind of slower than I thought

"I do like ordering from CandleScience, and…"
I do like ordering from candlescience, and most of the supplies I’ve gotten have been really good quality. My biggest frustration is the stock situation. A few of the fragrance oils and jars I use seem to disappear right when I need them, which throws off my small batches. Then I’m stuck checking back every day like I’m supposed to just patiently wait it out, that gets annoying fast. It’s not a bad site at all, I just really wish the popular stuff stayed available more consistently.

"My bulk order from CandleScience went…"
My bulk order from CandleScience went smoothly. Everything was packed well, nothing was missing, and the boxes arrived when they were supposed to. The scents and supplies were easy to go through and organize too. There was just something about it that felt simple and stress-free. No real issues at all, and I’d definitely order from them again.

"I feel kind of stupid for…"
I feel kind of stupid for trusting them. Some batches burn great and seem totally fine, but then others just feel off and don’t burn the same at all. It’s really inconsistent, and now I’m second-guessing the whole thing.

"Support helped, but why so slow??"
I had an issue with my order and had to message support a few times before it got fixed. They did sort it out in the end, so I can’t really complain too much?? It just took longer than I expected. Overall, not bad, but the process could definitely be quicker...

"I was going to place an order, but…"
I was going to place an order, but the shipping cost ended up being way higher than I expected. Not saying it’s a scam, but it definitely made the total feel a bit unreasonable. I would’ve been more likely to buy if the shipping was more affordable.

"Mostly Great Oils, but One Was a Bit Weak"
I’ve ordered a few fragrance oils from CandleScience most of them have been really good. They throw strong in soy wax and smell close to the descriptions, which I appreciate. One of the oils was a little lighter than I expected, so whoever runs this might want to double-check the strength on that one. Overall though, I’m happy with what I got.

"The scent really does stick around"
I wasn’t expecting much, but I can’t say it doesn’t last. The scent stayed strong for weeks, and I kept noticing it even after I thought it would’ve faded.

"Checkout Went Smoothly Today"
I didn’t have any issues checking out today, which was nice. I think the times I’ve had trouble before were probably just me catching it at a bad time, because today everything went through smoothly.
