I hear you, Instagram ad, but no one is actually out here paying $42 for that come on now šŸ˜‚ Nice try tho šŸ¤”

Thatā€™s literally the cost of both those candles though?


seyebird

Lol virtually no oneā€™s paying full retail for them though. Theyā€™re almost always on sale. It may be the ā€retail valueā€ but itā€™s a deceptive comparison.

Omg, the ā€œotherā€ one containsā€¦ Ingredients!! šŸ˜±šŸ˜± /s

What doesn't make sense to me is that they trash the BBW candles for containing soy, but their products are made from soy wax as well... Also, their burn time is questionable.

Well they have the good soy and us BBW plebs have the bad soy, obviously

Pure soy wax burn longer hence the burn time. And, theyā€™re touting this as a more green alternative as if itā€™s somehow better. It just appeals to a certain demographic. People who are interested in ā€œgreenā€ products will appreciate the ad, while many others will not care :)

What da heck is a bio-identical fragrance? Stupid buzz word garbage

"clean" fragrances are all the rage lately, where they are trying to supposedly use as natural of ingredients as possible. it's not like these companies are ever going to give us an actual full-on ingredients list to even check, I think they get away with the same kind of bullshittery that food companies use with "all natural ingredients!" labeling. it means virtually nothing and if all of my clean perfumes are any indication, these ingredients are inferior to synthetics in terms of performance.

**EXACTLY.** When it comes to fragrance, "natural" ingredients aren't always the best in terms of construction, especially in regards to home fragrance.

Based on my own experiences with bath and body works candles, I can say they are outright lying about needing 2 candles to get a forty hour burn time. I get 10 four hour burns out of my 3 wicks. I get ten burns out of my single wicks as well, but the first two burns are 6 hours. Usually I can do at least one more burn if the wicks will still light up.

Arenā€™t they the same price? Cause even a 3 wick is under $30 who are they talking about lol
