Recently I have become absolutely addicted to prize candles. I have tried several different brands, and I LOVE them all. One of the most unique prize candles I’ve seen is Precious Gem Candles. These prize candles do not contain rings, earrings, or necklaces; they contain loose gem stones.
I recently got the orange creme and a tropical papaya Precious Gem Candles. I love these highly fragrant candles because they made from an all-natural and clean burning soy wax blend. What that means is that is safe to have in your home and there will be no black stuff every where.
Why is soy wax better than paraffin wax you may ask? Well I asked the same question when I started reviewing Precious Gem Candles and the Jewelry In Candles tarts I reviewed before. Here is what I found in my research. Candles that are made from paraffin wax contain petroleum, and when burned the petroleum smoke/exhaust can contaminate the air we (and our children) breath with toxic carcinogens. If you ask me, that is kind of scary.
Not only are Precious Gem Candles safe to have around your home, but they smell AWESOME too. I have to say that the Orange Creme, with it’s blend of orange sorbet and vanilla ice cream scents, it really does smell like a creamsicle. The Tropical Papaya, reminds me of Tropical Twist gum from Trident. Both of the candles smell AWESOME!!
When getting to your prize, you will need to have some patience. For me, the orange creme candle took about 6 hours of burn time to get to the gem, and the tropical papaya took about 4 hours. The burn time may be different for you, it just depends on where they have placed your gem.
Here is a video of my Precious Gem Candles gem reveal.
I would choose lavender lane!
Can't go wrong there! If I am not sure about a scent, I go to lavender every time. :0)
I think I might choose the Grapefruit Mint. It sounds really nice.
If you win, you will have to tell me what that one smells like.
I would get Lavender Lane – Luxury Soy Candle.<br /><br />janetfaye (at) gmail (dot) com
You can never go wrong with Lavender. :0)
I would choose the lemongrass–so clean!
I never thought about getting the lemongrass…until you mention it… I may have to add that one to my wish list. :0)
i would choose the Orange Creme – Luxury Soy Candle
Good Choice! That one is AWESOME!!
I would get the Tahitian Vanilla. Mmm!
I think this is the one I will try next. 😀
Would like to try the Hibiscus Cooler!<br />-Ashley Irby
I would pick the Island Breeze
I would definitely choose Tropical Papaya – HOWEVER – if I win I am letting my daughter-in-law choose the scent, because she really, really, wants one!
I'd have to second the Lavender scent. Lavender is my FAVORITE!
i probably would pick the island breeze candle.
