Jewelry In Candles Review


OK, so the next candle on the review list is Jewelry In Candles. Please don't confuse it with Jewelry Candles, they are their own company and have no affiliation. That being said, I would like to note that though I enjoyed the candles I recieved, one of which was an accident but contained an 18k gold ring with diamonds I personally would like to see them change the name. If for no other reason than as is they risk having Jewelry Candles cause them problems because they HAVE trademarked their name. Thats all I will say on their name. I'm just here to evaluate their Candles on Quality. It's my mission to give you honest reviews and make my fans aware that they have options. You can check out their site at www.jewelryincandles.com 

                                        


The review:

I loved how fast I got the product. Honestly when I evaluate a lot of these candle companies there is quite a wait involved because they pour to order and don't always have stock available. As I previously mentioned I received two candles because of a shipping error, when I sent them an email to tell them I had received someone else's candle they told me to keep and and enjoy. That was very generous and nice of them. Unfortunately it was a scent I despise, Lavender  Now it had nothing to do with their scent personally it's simply that I do not like it. If you, however, like the scent of lavender I encourage you to try it. I burned it in my laundry room and could still smell it in my living room. That's quite a distance for one small candle to be able to throw a scent, so as far as scent and throw goes I really can't report a complaint on anything.
                                     

The Candle I ordered I loved. I got the Black Cherry and it was nice and strong. It smelled exactly as you would expect it to and I loved it. Both rings I received in the candles were real as well. The 18k from the Lavender is worth about $250 retail. The other has a fake stone but it was set in 925 silver and the band is very durable so I'd venture to guess about a $30-$40 range. They also offer for you to select a ring size which is wonderful. I do suggest ordering a ring 1 size larger than you really are as both the size 8 I ordered and the size 9 the other person had ordered were a size smaller than what it said.

I really enjoyed this candle and have very little negativity about them. My first wick was a bit floppy but I know how to fix that. (extinguish candle and mold it straight using the melted wax, repeat this several times as the wax cools if needed than just let it cool completely before relighting that fixes it) but the lavender wick was fine. Beyond the wick issue there was only one thing I was not completely pleased with and that was the way the melted wax looked. I don't know if it was a weird batch or if it's how it always is but the melted wax looked somewhere between a normal soy and a jelly jar wax. It didn't effect the sent in anyway, it's just an aesthetic preference. All in all I'd give this company a solid 7 out of 10, a rating that would go up expedentially by fixing the issue with the name I listed in the beginning. I would definitely consider buying more from them, especially once their scent list is expanded.

Now for the fun part! To all my readers who went through and read this, come back Friday for the giveaway for your chance to experience this candle company for yourself!

  3. I have to agree with you on the name, it is too much like the other company. The letting you pick your size is a great thing though, no more pinky rings if you dont want them.

  6. I concur, the name is very confusing...I honestly thought it was the same company. congrats on your happy accident on the 18k ring. I do have a question. I know that with some other type companies they have a way for you to value your ring. How do you know here how much your jewelry is worth? Thanks for your review.

    1. Hey Robin! Thanks for checking out my blog! Unless they're one of the select few who send a slip with the information you will probably need to run it in to a jeweler for an estimate. A lot of jewelers will tell you for free especially mom and pop places. But that doesn't mean you can't narrow it down. Always check for markings in the band. Silver is marked 925 gold of course is (x) k. Look at your stones for imperfections. This is desirable because it's much more likely to be real. Feathering like looking cracks,milky colors etc. I have a lot of helpful tips on my YouTube page to help you narrow down whether or not it is worth money. It's not definitive but it narrows it down.

  8. Holly ~ thank you so much for your honest review. I find it quite refreshing! I wonder if the wax is not 100% soy if that is at all possible. Some soy candles can be more expensive so I don't own many.

    1. Its possible but I didn't note any shelling so I don't think it has paraffin in them.
