Returning Used Candles

Over the last few months, I have seen post after post of people returning used candles to the store and getting brand new candles using the stores 100% Guarantee.  Per the Bath & Body Works website their returns policy is “We just want you to love it! Return anything, anytime for any reason. 100% Guaranteed.

If at any time you’re not completely satisfied with the quality of our products, you may return them to any of our Bath & Body Works or White Barn Stores in the US for a full refund, subject to the terms of our Return Policy.”

The key to the policy is if you’re not completely satisfied with the product.  If you are burning the candle till there is nothing left you were satisfied with the product.  You have used it for its intended purpose and liked it well enough to use all of it.

I am all for returning items that are defective or if it can’t be used for some reason.  However completely using a product and then returning it is completely wrong.  That is abusing the system. 

What is your opinion on this?

As a result of my reflection I came up with the following on things that I am going to work on in 2022.

1.  Continue to give back to both my online and local community.

2.  Post 2 TikToK videos a day making sure to include one that is informative to my TikTok Channel.

3.  Send informative emails weekly along with special offers.

Don’t Be A Shipageddon Victim

What’s Shipageddon?  Shipageddon is when the shipping carriers get overloaded which causes delays.  We experienced it in 2020 and it is expected to return for this holiday season due to an employee shortage.  

What does this mean for you?  It means that if your planning on ordering your holiday packages at the last minute they more than likely will not arrive in time.  In order to get around this you might be considering purchasing locally at the last minute.  This isn’t going to work either because the stores are having the issue.  Their stock won’t be arriving on time either therefore making your instore options limited.

What’s your best course of action?  Order early.  Money an issue?  Try spreading out our holiday shopping out over the a few weeks but still order early.  Don’t wait till the last minute.

As an incentive to do your shopping early I am offering free shipping plus a free mystery gift with your order. No minimum order required. Use discount code Shipageddon expires 11/25/21. (US customers only)

What’s the difference between face scrub and face wash?

Face scrubs have a gritty texture to wash away dead skin cells that lie buried deep in your pores. They have a thick and creamy consistency for smooth application. However, most dermatologists discourage the usage of face scrubs on acne-prone pores and skin. Recent products have offered super answers for this problem. They use soft microbeads that don’t irritate the skin. A stellar product that you can attempt is the Honeyskin Organics’ Organic Microdermabrasion Facial Scrub Exfoliator which makes use of undoubtedly charged microbeads to tug pollutants and dirt from your skin. On other hand, face washes have a creamy or foamy texture, which without difficulty glides over your skin. They lack the gritty texture of face scrubs, which can put off dead pores and skin cells. The foam is intended to smooth the dirt from the floor of your skin.

Some of the benefits of frequently using face wash are

Removes Build up
Washing your face helps get rid of the dust and oil that accumulates at some point of the day. The great way to dispose of them is to use a face wash that fits your skin type.

Boosts hydration
The ordinary use of face wash can help maintain the right pH tiers of the pores and skin. If you’ve got an imbalanced degree of hydration, then you emerge as more liable to dry or oily skin.

Maintains clear skin
Removing the dust can inhibit the increase of acne-causing bacteria.

Here are the benefits of face scrubs:

Removes toxins and dead pores and skin cells
The exfoliating agents help remove toxins and dead pores and skin cells that are buried in your pores. As a result, you get sparkling and radiant skin.

Improves blood stream to the pores and skin
As the face scrub allows stimulates the pores and skin, the blood stream on your face can be improved. This effects in younger looking skin.

Removes deep-seated dirt
Using face scrubs can help put off the dirt that can’t be eliminated by way of face washes alone. This leads to blemish-free pores and skin.

Most Asked Question

#1 Question Asked

The most asked question I get concerning the website is why is there only 1 item available in any certain product.  Those who have been shopping with me for along time know that I personally shop for each product that is available on the website.  I shop by maximizing the coupons in combination with the many sales Bath & Body Works, Victoria Secret, and Yankee Candle offers.

By doing this in combination of the variety of different products available it is difficult to gather multiples of any product.  It is my goal to offer products in each scent that is offered at Bath & Body Works.  The products from Bath & Body Works are my number 1 most sold products on the website which is why I stock more products their company.   The limited quantities and low products is part of the fun with the website.   Many customers spend time watching the website and our Facebook pages so that they know when new products are added.  It has become somewhat of a game for some of our customers.  If they see something they want they grab it fast so that it doesn’t slip through their fingers.

You also might not be aware that there is a Facebook Messenger Group you can belong to and get advance notice of the daily new products added!  Click the link below to send me a private message in Facebook messenger to let me know you want to be added to the group for advance notice.

I am always willing to take requests on products and will restock products that are in demand so that more customers can share in the fun.
