logcabinmomma Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I just finished up a bottle of NG's Pink Sugar and I swear that stuff gives me the worst headache. It seems to get in my eyes and nose and do nasty things to me. I'm guessing if a Pink Sugar DIDN'T do this to me, it wouldn't be the same, huh.Oh well... it sells REALLY REALLY well and people love it. In the midst of all my Christmas madness, this was my second best seller of the season, just behind Pumpkin Souffle. Does anyone know of one that I won't hate? Grasping at straws here as I need to order more and don't want to! :lipsrseal -Kristi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8-GRAN-ONES Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I haven't tried the one you are talking about..I have used Flickers, and Indiana Candle Supply, and I like them both..I have never noticed a headache with them.My preferance is ICS, in Candles.My Pink S. from Flickers I have used in my Soap..even thoughit turns the soap brown..But they both smell lovely..HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carriegsxr6 Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Try a different one, they areally differ between companies. First try smelling the true perfume and then compair to the fragrance oil suppliers.IMO Peaks and ICS are the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camay Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 There was a thread about Pink Sugar a little while ago. It seemed that most people liked ICS the best, followed by Peaks.There are some FOs that give me wicked headaches. I try not to hang around in the pouring room too long when I am using those FOs, but it is hard to do when you want to get a lot of candles made. Taking a step outside and getting fresh air helps me.

Candlebuddy Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I also like Pink Sugar from BCN and The Candle Source. The one from TCS is the same as ICS, at least to my nose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logcabinmomma Posted December 12, 2007 Author Share Posted December 12, 2007 It would be awesome if ICS and TCS are about the same... I like ordering from TCS and have a couple other things I'd like to get from them...And I ALWAYS pour Pink Sugar last and then get the heck outta dodge... ICK. My mom and I have a joke about it... the last 2 shows I did I sold out and I was so happy to be done with it and then this morning at 9 am I get a call.... for Pink Sugar... :::chills::: ick.-Kristi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debscent Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I LOVE that scent...I could pour it all day. I use Peak's PS. I have the perfume and love it, I always get compliments on it. But don't ask me for a rose candle...I refuse to do them. Yuck!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ring of Fire Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Try Backwoods Blue (Blue Sugar) for a change of pace. I have been burning the same tarts for days now, no shit. I love that fragrance. I happen to love NG's Pink Sugar. Most of them smell the same to me, which includes ICS and TCS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Some how this just wasn't a thread for you to post in MA. I didn't picture you giving the scent any positives lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naughtybutnicecandles Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I dont care for any of the type of "sugar" smells. Blue sugar is fine as long as it is light for me in soaps. In candles I just dont like any that have a sugar note in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlelady Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I liked it at first and use Kangaroo Blue's Pink Sugar in my B&B and everyone just loves it! Not real fond of it now, for some reason, but it does sell! So, I'm keeping it. I also have BW Blue Sugar, it's OK, just a little diff version of Pink Sugar IMO. Haven't sold any of that.Just my 2 cents.Carrie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Pink Sugar doens't sell at all out here. I was surprised at that. Can't give it away let alone sell it. But I do like Flickers PS the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon in KY Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Maybe it's the musk in it that you hate. I know I hate that musk undertone to it and warm vanilla sugar has it too. Both stink to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waxwench Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Bleck! Pink Sugar is nasty stuff. I would have had to pay people to take it off my hands. Haven't tried the Blue Sugar.Sharon is right though.........musk......ew........... makes me gag. For being a die hard vanilla HO, WVS makes me want to ralph!

Both stink to me.OH yeah. It's the musk that stinks. I've got to be VERY careful which FO's I order cause I can't do musk at all (now white musk seems to be not so bad). I can't do Warm Van Sugar either... my dd got some for Christmas from a friend and I can't stand near her. ICK!That would be why I'm pretty sure I'm just stuck with headaches or I have to discontinue it... I always make a whole batch so I have extra and don't have to pour that one as often...-Kristi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candle Makin Momma Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 I used Bitter Creeks Pink Sugar and thought it was hideous. It made my head hurt so bad. It just smelled like musk, which I can't stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
