Warmed Wax: Glitterati and Lasting Scent Candles


Lasting Scent Candles Snow Globe threw medium in my bedroom and smells like candy sweet vanilla to me. Maybe a little creaminess but not a whole lot. I enjoy it for its sweet simplicity. I try to get a scent shot of it anytime it pops up but it would not be brittle bag worthy for me, personally. Repurchase.


Lasting Scent Candles Pink Sugar Vanilla threw medium-light in my bedroom. Another simple blend of Pink Sugar and vanilla. Simple, yet good. I would repurchase but probably not in a Brittle Bag. I think I like Coco Pink and a few other Pink Sugar blends form LSC better. 


Glitterati Pink Marshmallow Fireside from my custom order last year. I ordered two scent shots in this scent and fell hard in love so I had been hoarding them. My sweet friend Sunnee sent me a couple chunks from her stash recently so I decided I could splurge and melt these. They threw medium-strong in my kitchen and living area. The gooey sweet and slightly smoky aroma of Bath  Body Work's Marshmallow Fireside with the extra cotton candy and musk haze from Pink Sugar makes this a wonderful blend. Repurchase for sure. Hoping I can pop on the customs list next go 'round.



Glitterati Violet Sugar Cookie threw medium-strong to strong in my living room and kitchen. Insanely delicious. I can see why this has a cult following. I will say it is very sweet like vanilla dusted cotton candy blended with cupcakes. I really don't get the tale tell Parma violets scent at all from this but it is still a scrumptious scent. Not floral at all. I would repurchase this absolutely.

I have a Kitty's Konfections order waiting to be photographed and blogged, and orders from Beezy, The Bathing Garden and Lasting Scent Candles that are waiting to be filled. I would like to order Dessa's new fall and holiday scents and possibly order from Sugar & Spice and Candles From The Keeping Room. Are you waiting on any orders? Plotting any orders? I think once the ones I am waiting for roll in, I should be good for a little while. I will still place small orders here and there but nothing substantial. I do have a new-to-me Etsy vendor that will be featured during the fall. And speaking of fall, starting in September I will be happily participating in a Fall Fun Series with quite a few bloggers and I hope you join in. If you are a blogger and would like to join our series, please email me in the contact form at the bottom.

  1. Hi Julie, Seems like I need to revisit Glitterati. I'm waiting on my LPL and Shayz Scents. Like you I'm hoping to get it on CFTKR, HHS, S&S and a small order from Dessa. I'm currently loving Ava's and she's having another "huge" restock on the 28th, I'm hoping to get it on. LOL After all that I'm going to buy a few candles and be set until I'm thinking Oct at least.

    1. Hello Yasmine! LPL and Shayz! Nice! They both have quite a few scents I love. I feel like it has been eons since I have ordered from Shayz. Hoping we both can get our hands on Carol's Pumpkin Cream Soda. I am dying over the thought of that one. I loved her cream soda. Thanks for the info on Ava's I like quite a few of her scents but the last time I went on her site there really wasn't much to buy. I need a few candles too. I *should* be done with wax but we will see. Good luck on catching CFTKR!! I need it too!

  2. My tiny Beezy order is the only thing I'm waiting on at the moment. I'm keeping an eye out for new fall/winter scents from Sweet Fixations but other than that I think I'm done ordering for a while. I have WAY too much fall wax and keep grabbing more when I go to Walmart.

    I hope others do join the fall series, and I especially hope readers chime in and make it even more fun. =)

    1. What did you get from Beezy? I forgot too and I kinda don't want to peek at my email invoice so I can keep it a surprise. I never quite feel like I have enough fall wax until after Thanksgiving then I realize I have only melted half and need to save the rest for next year. Doh.

      I hope others join us too! I am really excited about it! Reader involvement is always the best. Hoping to get some fall chatter going too.

  3. So much waxy goodness! I love the few LSC scents I've tried and would love to get my hands on the waxy unicorn that is Glitterati! That violet sugar cookie blend sounds wonderful.

    Sounds like you have a lot of great waxy posts and hauls coming up! I look forward to drooling over them. I posted about my Kitty's Konfections circus order a week ago and shared my Candy Panda Aphrodite's Sun Room (tea) sampler today; it's divine! I'm waiting on a KK Mean Girls Preorder and The Scented Squirrel fall scents and Mythical Creatures sampler. Very excited about those.

    1. YAY! Love waxy goodness! Glitterati is for sure the wax unicorn. And I hope we can both get on some Glitterati lists next time they open up.

      I hopped over and read your Candy Panda post! Love the sound of that tea sampler. I seriously need to get on that Kitty Konfection post. I just have had such a hectic past two weeks that I am barely functioning. One kid gets food poisoning and the other now have a cold/fever. I am a little overwhelmed but thankfully I have a few posts lined up so I don't have to take pics or much for now.
