EARLY JANUARY Candle Chat: What are we burning after the holidays?

[@CaramelSundays-z3x]

Katie thank you so much for taking the time to review our candles! It means so much to us! All these amazing reviews have helped our brand grow so much!!❤

[@katiesjoyfullife]

You're welcome! I've been LOVING your candles and don't even get me started on that Plain Jane laundry detergent. :) I'm trying to narrow down my list to be within budget for the January drop, but my goodness, it's HARD.

[@Belovedbeauty-y9z]

Yes to a Caramel Sunday preview. My list for the drop is growing 😅❤🎉

[@katiesjoyfullife]

Oh man, my list HAS to be narrowed down because I honestly want like half of the fragrances in this month's drop. Haha. I will put a preview video on my list of videos to film :)

[@dsyauch]

You know I wanna see all the Caramel Sundays content! I have lit my 4-wick Truffle Butter Cookie and it’s really good, not overwhelming in my open space but fills the air with yumminess! Butter Rum Cafe is definitely on my try list, but I’m pumped for some new Kringle reserve, my favorite line! 😂

[@katiesjoyfullife]

Yes, I'm curious about how they do that Red Velvet Cake that we've seen leaked in the group. That Truffle Butter Cookie from CS was probably the strongest candle I tried in all of 2024. Such a good one!

Hi Katie, wow you are melting a lot of Caramel Sundae candles this month. I have never tried this company before. Katie almost all my BBW candles get puney wick syndrome when they get to the half way point. 😢 I have an air purifier and it makes a huge difference. I live in Nevada and we have a ton of dust and the purifier really seems to keep the dust at bay.

[@katiesjoyfullife]

I've been running my air purifier every night and already I notice a difference in the amount of mucous I have in the back of my nose every night. Yay! I'm definitely encouraged that we can cut down all of this dust from these hot, dry climates that we live in. Yes, I've really fallen for Caramel Sundays. A little pricier, but I'm pleased with the quality and will continue to purchase from them.

[@thefragrancefairy]

@ it’s crazy how much the air purifier makes a difference. 🤩 So I might have to try them out. That is how I feel about Kringle they are pricey, but man do they perform so I am moving more towards them than so cheaper not so great performing brands.

[@scottvanhille5688]

Nice haul. Snow Tipped Pine has been on my radar for a long time, fingers crossed that it will show up at the outlets. It was 44 degrees here last night lol. Hope to burn London Christmas Tea next year. WW has one called Tea Time, that you may be interested in. I'm pairing CB's Evergreen Cedar Leaf and YC's Cranberry which has a high flame with no wax residue and no tunneling which they've been known for. Red Velvet Cake is also on my list. I'll burn Black Tie New Year's 2026. I like it on cold, that one can simply be into the fictitious James Bond collection.

[@katiesjoyfullife]

Bust out the Black Tie now! It's so good! Haha.

[@WandaMerriamTodd]

Hi Katie, Butter Rum Cafe was back up worthy for me Banana Foster was another one. Slow and steady burning here. I may pick up a couple of Spring candles from BBW but the sale needs to be better than 10 off. Have a great weekend

[@katiesjoyfullife]

Oh, I definitely need a much deeper discount for BBW candles. They've really fallen to the bottom of my list over the last six months with the burn issues I've encountered. I'm finishing up Butter Rum Cafe today. I know you really love that one! You might see Bananas Foster in one of my upcoming videos. :)

[@stepneh]

Hi Katie! I'm with you, I really like Black Tie! Hopefully it goes on sale again in the Luxe. Something that made the Luxe candles better for me on the initial pools was to use a candle topper instead of foil or hurricane. I found one on Etsy by RiverDriveDesigns and the Voluspa one fits the HW luxe 80.

[@katiesjoyfullife]

Oh that's good to know! I definitely need to get my hands on the luxe Black Tie. It's one of the more unique fragrances that I have come across and I genuinely love it. I've found that my Spun Vanilla Sugar luxe that I've had for 2 years is pooling much easier now that I'm past the half way mark, but that's good to know about the toppers.

[@stepneh]

@@katiesjoyfullife I found the same to be true with my Harvest Leaves 80oz. Halfway through it pooled perfectly. But the soot....oh my.

[@EnyosRage]

I would love to see a preview video of Caramel Sundays. I’m interested in buying from them this year and could use more info on how their site works. Plus I enjoy hearing the reviews and seeing new-to-me candles. Thank you for reviews!

[@katiesjoyfullife]

Noted! I would love to share more about the brand as they've been one of the most exciting finds of 2024 for me.

[@AllAbootCandles]

I love Pistachio Toasted Vanilla as well. All the versions I’ve had do have issues with the last half though. 😢 Great video Katie! Happy New Year.

[@katiesjoyfullife]

I just put this one in the crock yesterday because it was getting so puney and sooty. Womp womp. The fragrance is so good that I just can't quit it. Clearly, I've got a toxic situationship going on with it.

[@AllAbootCandles]

@ hahaha a toxic relationship with a toxic candle

[@ReillyWilde]

Thanks for sharing Katie. 🎉My favorite Kringle orange fragrance is Reserve Orange-so delightful! 🍊Along with the after holiday sale, I picked up Kringle’s Tranquil Winter wax melts to sample (reminds me of Kringle Frosted Spice). It looks like it’s not available in medium jar size. As an ambassador, have you heard whether Kringle is keeping the medium jars? Enjoy your candles. R🍁

[@katiesjoyfullife]

I haven't heard anything for sure about the medium sized jars, but I did see Mick say that they will be phasing out the current 3 wicks as well as the Country jars. I have seen previews of what they're doing to replace the current 3 wicks and I'm excited for what's coming. Just filmed my Kringle post-holiday haul and hope to have it up in a couple of days to share with ya'll.

[@ReillyWilde]

@@katiesjoyfullife Too bad about phasing out the Kringle 3 wicks. The fragrance throws & clean burns are consistently good. Looking forward to seeing your next video! 🍁R
