    Body care will always be my first love, but I only got candles if someone gave them to me when I was younger. In my late 20s I discovered the appeal. The soothing flame, the scents, and I fell in LOVE for the very first time with I believe it was called Caramel Brûlee Latté (the jar had wildlife all over it, I actually kept it and I keep my hand creams on my vanity in it!!) and then a Champagne Toast candle.
    I want to say it was Fall 2021. Candles were Buy 2 Get 2 Free and I had (miraculously it seems hah!) a coupon for a free 3 wick.
    And there starts the full throttle 😂🤣

    I’ve swapped to a candle warming lamp instead of burning them since they keep bringing back the same scents. I only need one, two max, of a candle. They still spread throughout the house, but I can reuse them for years.

    There were quite a few candles I was interested in this year, as a freshie lover. I just didn't get that many candles this year because frankly times are tough these days and its easier to focus just on body care. If i got all the candles I wanted I'd be broke and have to stack candles on my bed.

    2023 was not the best year for Bath and Body works. I’m a gourmond girl and aside from ILPC, I wasn’t terribly excited about much.

    The online shipping charges are absolutely ridiculous for consumers who are unable to get to stores. It really deters someone for making purchases. I have also been disappointed by the labels, they are just becoming generic looking.

    Ooo a saved video of yours I never watched! For me it was the opposite kind of. I always prefer winter and fall over spring and summer scent wise but for whatever reason spring and summer I was getting great throws. Once fall came I Wasn't smelling any of my candles. No one in my house could smell anything. Since candle day I've been getting way better throws again! Yay
    Favorite new candle was pink lavender and espresso.

    I know for sure I will be going to candle day next year since I skipped this year just because I want to work on my stash a little longer it can get overwhelming so I have wax bars and bricks to make more space and donate my empty jars for schools that want them for craft purposes as well so I don't think as myself a collector I do burn all my stuff but having alot jars does make person look like a collector but I do let go of the jars .

    • @apresmoa
      @apresmoa 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      This is a much better and kinder idea than throwing away the jars. At the very least, people could donate them instead of tossing them. So much waste. I'm new to my candle journey so I haven't finished a single candle yet but I plan on doing similar for used candle jars.

  • @MarniMedia
    @MarniMedia 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Candles are always hit-or-miss, so I accept that and it's fun to try new things. The only candle from Candle Day that I was annoyed with was Into the Night because I wondered why it smelled so perfume-y (with none of the sweetness that the other Into the Night products have). Then I checked the candle notes, and it has "creamy musk" instead of the "mocha musk" that's in all of the other Into the Night products. I have no idea why they'd change the scent of the candle, but I'm returning the 4 that I got for Candle Day.
    My favorites of the year were Luminous and Crunchy English Toffee, which was such a surprise for me (it's a true delicious toffee scent without the weird note that scents like Pumpkin Pecan Waffles has for me).
    The only other random complaint I have is that the new candles that launched on Saturday for Candle Day arrived with quality issues. Many had the wax falling out of the jar in an entire block, and Candy Cane Colada arrived with the wax loose and smeared all over the jar.

I would only need 1 Christmas candle to use now. I’ll be returning more than a few candles. I ordered online because they closed the store in my mall (in a big city by the way…the 2nd largest in CT) and moved it to a new mall in a town 15 mins away. 👎🏻

    I loved the sweet tea and lemonade candle that they had for summertime too.
    I hope they bring it back too I stocked up on soap and candles for that one.

  • @ButtermilkandCream
    @ButtermilkandCream 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Bought this year because of your videos. Then I found out my sister does buy these and burns them. I don't burn candles but I may start. Haha
    I live out in the country so it's really too far for me to drive to the store so I ordered online during the $9.95 sale I got so many candles that were not poured right. I got the jolly elf broke which they replaced and the perfect season with the reindeer on it seems like they couldn't get that sent poured right? It looked messy in the back of the jar. Oh, and I got 2 of the hot Coco candles. They were totally ruined in the back meaning they weren't poured right It was all smeared inside the candle.
    I was disappointed because I waited so long for these and then they look like this. They made him good but by the time I called the next day to we get a replacement. A lot of them were out of stock. So was disappointed on this because I had planned on giving some out for gifts.
    But let me tell you Bath& Body Works wouldn't be having issues if they would learn how to package their candles right when they ship them. They just throw them in a box. Toss them. May throw in a puff bag that is totally worthless and it's a wonder at Halloween. When I started buying these I didn't get any broke then.
    The cartons that each of the candles are in are very thin and flimsy they are put in there. We're like you can see the bottom of the name but you can't tell with the candle is till you open it up. Really they should consider having the open cartons like Goose Creek does that would be the best for them?
    I wish I live closer so I could shop at the store but anyway they need to rethink their packaging and shipping these out.

    Wasnt a fan of the latter half of this year..
    Even though fall and winter is my favorite. I had good throws through spring and summer. come fall i couldn't smell any of the new candles. They switched to those skinny pencil dick wicks and started dudding out like crazy. I hope this isnt going to continue. But i know they dont listen to their customers.. hence they are discontinuing mason jars and going wide with signature single wicks even though everyone hates them and cant smell them at all 🤦🏻‍♀️ they dont care.. until they notice they lose money from their decisions!
    Scentwise it was okay, lot of repackages.. pink lavender and espresso was the stand out. Then again its pretty much just lavender marshmallow 😂 vanilla and musk and sunset desert were my favorite repackages this year:) i hope they bring more woody musky scents out like that
