New Additions - PART THREE!

Our last collection for the year-

SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY COLLECTION
Texans are proud of their Southern heritage. Remember the slogan Don’t Mess With Texas! We are full of pride for our dear state of Texas yet very hospitable to newcomers as we Texans are known for. In keeping with the spirit of the South, we are offering a small-tailored collection of Southern-themed fragrances to you.

Southern Cape Jasmine
Growing up in South East Texas my great-grandmother had a treasured gardenia bush. This bush would grow as tall as the house with the most-fragrant, large, white blooms in late May each year. My family always referred to this as a Cape Jasmine rather than Gardenia. The scent of this bloom is headier than the smaller gardenia blooms that you find these days. We are very excited to have found the perfect Cape Jasmine scent. This is truly a treasure to sniff!

Southern Fruitcake
Just in time for the holidays! This is so good that we will continue to offer this all year! So many people turn their noses up at the dreaded holiday fruitcake! An old joke about just HOW OLD IS THE FRUITCAKE? or how many times has it been passed on to the next person? No chance of this yummy creation aging! Our blend begins with opening notes of roasted nuts mixed in a yellow cake batter, hints of diced cherries and dried raisins with a splash of rum and vanilla. Delicious!

Southern Gentleman
Wowzers! This scent is so handsome! Tall, dark, and handsome to be exact!! Close your eyes: picture this - a rugged cowboy fresh from the shower with a hint of cologne.

Southern Hospitality
Nothing says Down-Home Southern cooking better than the warm goodness coming from the kitchen! This scent captures the notes of a true Southern kitchen baking … hints of delicious vanilla, nutmeg, and various spices. Yum!

Southern Iced Tea
Nature’s Cauldron formulation
Nothing says South better than a glass of ice-cold sweet tea! Believe it or not, but this fragrance is just that! Fresh, clean scent of tea without any lemon or honey. Just like your granny used to make! This is a very homey and unisex scent. (Formerly known as “Black Tea”, but we think this name fits even better!)

New Additions - Part TWO

Hey all!

Told ya that we had more goodies to be added ... our awesome web designer is updating the site now with our newest fragrances.

In the meantime, here is what is being added:
REGULAR LINE:

Holiday Pomander
Too good to offer only once a year! This scent is nothing less than an orange pomander with prickly cloves for decoration!

SPA COLLECTION

Ambre en Bois
This fragrance is very hard to pinpoint exact notes, but we can tell you that is begins with rich amber notes and ends exotic woods background.

Bamboo Cedar
This is a very unique blend of true cedarwood on a background of green bamboo notes. Truly a very nice and different fragrance!

Bois de Vetiver
This fragrance is the essence of the rich and luxurious scent of vetiver. This is very nice, upscale scent – a great offering to any line!

Citron et Fleur
This fragrance begins with complex and intriguing notes of fresh citrus on a soft floral-woody background.

Energie
This is our interpretation of a famous shampoo known for relaxation and renewal of energy.
Very soothing and relaxing fragrance!

Maravu
“Maravu” translated means calm and tranquil. Let the spirit of this soft, glorious fragrance transport you to a calm and tranquil place. This has top uplifting notes of lavender with a special blend of tranquil notes. Let your mind take a journey to peaceful serenity.

Pear Tranquility
This doesn’t sound like a “spa” scent, but wait until you sniff it! This opens with a peaceful, scent of a juicy pear – so refreshing that you will swear that the juice is dripping down your chin! It ends on a note of “mystery” – is it a hint of spice? It’s just good!

Sacred Tranquility
A slightly medicinal scent with refreshing and clean notes that will bring blessed tranquility to your life as you lay back and reflect on the day’s end.

Sweet Oblivion
We’ve pondered and pondered on describing this unique scent, but each time we smell this it has a bit more depth. This fragrance is clean with soft floral notes, but has more depth that we can describe. We adore this scent and think “Ah, sweet oblivion!” when each time we sniff it!

Uninhibited
As you relax with hints of eucalyptus and soft mint notes you will begin to unwind and forget your troubles with this relaxing scent. Let go of our inhibitions and become as one with your body and soul!

TONS of New Fragrances!

We have added a TON of new fragrances to the website! As you may have already found some of these ... so here are the newest additions:

Our Regular Line:

"Berry Crazy"
Berries! Berries! And more berries! Our fragrance smells just like a fresh bucketful of ripe berries ready to eat! If you love fruity scents, this one is for you!

"Berry Twist & Shout!"
This is a juicy boysenberry blended with a hint of dirt and green goodness! Fresh-off-the vine boysenberry!

"Butterfly Garden"
Bees softly hovering atop the gentle blossoms of the flower garden; butterflies fluttering in the air; and the crickets singing their magical songs in the distance all the while you are laying in the hammock swaying with the gentle breeze of the afternoon. This fragrance captures the moments of the spring afternoon with hints of soft floral notes and is sweetened with a touch of fruit.

"Butterscotch Kisses"
Rich and delicious butterscotch! Hurry! Grab a handful of candies and dig in!

"Coco d’Amande"
This is the perfect blend of rich coconut with almond. It’s an even blend with a true to its name coconut! You’re going to love this!

"Ethereal Daydreams"
Daydreams under a fluffy clouded-sky… the hum of crickets; chirping of birds; this fragrance is airy, light, but so completely wonderful! It’s a lazy day with nothing better to do than snooze in the hammock! Our fragrance opens with notes of a crisp garden cucumber; hints of a sweet melon, juicy pears, and freshly cut green grass ending on a heavenly note of white musk. A heavenly combination that will surely leave you wanting to daydream!

"Ginger Pumpkin Snap"
Great addition to any bakery line! This is such a yummy dessert cookie with a twist – traditional gingersnaps with a hint of pumpkin added. Yum!

"Holiday Pomander"
Too good to offer only once a year! This scent is nothing less than an orange pomander with prickly cloves for decoration.

"Lahaina"
A gorgeous fragrance that opens with a floral explosion of tropical flowers including top notes of island gardenia and tuberose blossoms with a touch of powder notes ending on hints of exotic woods.

"Lemon Sugar & Candied Violets"
Amazing! This scent is gorgeous! It is true to its name! Hints of lemon sugar with sweet, sticky notes of candied violets! This scent has just a touch of perfume to give it an added “upscale” note. We are in love with this!!

"Petal Sprinkles & Shea"
This delicate blends starts with hints of soft floral; middle notes heady sandalwood; ending on notes of delicious white musk all this with just a hint of sugar sprinkles! This is such a lovely scent – we are sure that you will agree!

"Sugar Bubbles"
This is a sticky sweet, effervescent scent that will be a fun addition to any line! It is really hard to describe – it reminds me of an old-favorite bubble bath scent that I used as a child. Fun! Fun!

"Sun-Drenched Raspberry"
Ahh! This is a super-summer or anytime fragrance! Juicy ripe raspberries with a hint of citrus! Excellent interpretation of the famous raspberry that is on everyone’s tongue! Try it – we know that you will agree that it is awesome!

"Sweet Pea Petals"
Our fragrance is the soft scent of sweet pea petals with notes of fruits and soft musk. This is a beautiful scent and will be a great addition to any line!

We are also working on a two NEW custom-tailored collections for you! Stay tuned!

It's Official!

Day-Star is officially a blogger now!

http://www.daystarsupplies.com/

Thank you for stopping by and visiting our website! We are now offering a blog to keep you up-to-date on the latest "happenings" here at Day-Star Candle & Soap Supply. I will try to post daily to keep updates on any out-of-stock or just arrived goodies!

We will have quite a few new fragrances debuting over the next few weeks. For those of you that took advantage of our "Spook-Tacular Sale" on Halloween received a taste of some of the new oils that will be debuting very soon!

On a serious note, I've received many emails questioning our fragrance ingredients ... specifically about Diethyl Phthalate (DEP). In regards to DEP, please visit the following links to read concerning "Diethyl Phthalate":

Per our manufactuer: "It has been proven to be the only phthalate that is safe for use in fragrance products. DEP got a bad rep in the press 5 years ago due to association and people failed to follow up on the science afterwards. So there is still some buzz about DEP but it’s been proven to be safe."

http://www.epa.gov/IRIS/subst/0226.htm
http://www.epa.gov/EPA-TRI/1995/September/Day-05/pr-23.html

I will be posting a list of our fragrances very soon here at the blog that do contain diethyl phthalate.

Thanks again for your continued support! Have a Great Evening!
