Lindsay Green is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to bath and candle products. When I opened my box from Lindsay’s Candles & Stuff it was a wave of unbelievably scrumptious smells!

I have always loved her packaging, it is simple clear cut and cute. Everything is clearly labeled which I really like. My box had a soap, three wax melts and a lip balm.

I took these products on the RV with me when we moved across country, and have toted them a long way. The Orange Lip Balm was a savior on the road as we moved from one extreme temperature to another, plus the AC blowing in your face for 14 hours a day, did not leave my skin in great shape. I don’t know what I would have done without this balm. When Lindsay says orange, she means ORANGE. It tastes fresh squeezed and provides great moisturizing while leaving just a little shine behind. For $2.50 Canadian, you really can’t beat this Lip Balm.

The most amazing bar of soap kept us both going through those long days. The Wake Me Up Soap Bar did just that each morning at the KOA! It has pure essential oils of eucalyptus, peppermint, lemon and wintergreen in it. It is all natural and provides just the right kick to get your day started right. This is one bar of soap that is on my must have list. The other bonus is that it doesn’t dry out my skin like other natural soaps I have tried in the past. So, an A+ to Lindsay!

Moving right along to my favorite addiction….Wax Melts! I actually burned these in the house the last few days right before we moved, and was super sad to see the last one go. The first one was Cinnamon Buns. WOW! It was strong and lasted all day (as in 24 hours) and filled the house up. Now this is a scent that is typically hit and miss with most e-tailers. Not so with Lindsay’s Candles & Stuff. It was dead on, and didn’t have any bizarre after scent. Next was the Warm Apple Pie melt. I am drooling thinking about that tart. It is on my MUST buy tart list. You can quote me when I say…It is so freaking good! Now, the Jamaica Me Crazy melt was intense. Very fruity/tropical. Again excellent scent throw that lasted into the next day. I would buy this one in bulk too. It was that yummy. The neat thing about these Wax Melts is you can actually get them color coordinated to your preference to match your rooms. LOL, how cool is that?

When it comes to service and quality, Lindsay’s Candles & Stuff simply cannot be beat. If you are balking at ordering from a Canadian company, do not hesitate, run to the border, cross and BUY people. If you don’t, you are missing out.

I am very excited about this great company! They have the most delicous product offerings around. Soapier has a variety of bath and body products to delight just about anybody.

The box of goodies I received had the most scrumptious Oatmeal, Milk and Honey Sugar Scrub in it. Now, you have all heard me say how much I LOVE a good scrub, but don’t like the oiliness of some that are on the market. This scrub has just the right amount of oil sugar ratio. Not too greasy but moisturizing. Thick but not so much that you can’t scoop it out easily. And this scent? O.M.G. This is probably one of the better OMH scents I have ever smelled, and friends, I have sniffed a lot of them over the last 10 years. The jar is HUGE too, 16 oz to be exact. I was shocked when I saw it (pleasantly so).

Next up I delved right into their Luscious Body Lotion. I am a lotion addict so, this was actually the first thing I slathered on as soon as I opened the box. The scent is coconut, mango & papaya and it is really nice. It is a perfect summer scent. I was afraid the mango papaya would over power the coconut, but that is not the case, it is perfectly balanced. It almost smells like some of those expensive tanning lotions without any fake notes to it. The texture is thick but not so much that it doesn’t come out of the bottle. Speaking of bottles, their packaging is VERY professional. I love the lotion bottles they are shaped like a smaller version of a wine bottle.

The only slight disappointment was the fact that they use excess packaging in the form of shrink wrap on the outside of the bottles and jars. I understand why they do it, especially in the summer months, so I won’t knock it too much. Though I thought that it took away from the look of the snappy packaging underneath.

Next come the soaps, I had help from Jaded reviewing two of the bars, I will include her notes here after mine. Of course like the magpie wanna be that I am, I took the brightest bars of the bunch! Orange A Peel and Lush Fruits. The orange scent is very bold and true to the real fruit. Lush Fruits is more tropical goodness with a mango papaya twist. The bars are a vary generous 5 oz and are little works of art as you can see from the picture. They are glycerin based which I love, because they leave a nice clean feel and a great lather and are not drying.

Jaded’s Review: I cut a slice of the “Lavished in Chocolate” soap by Soapier.com to try this morning. I cannot remember the last time I used a glycerin soap, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. The soap was sitting in our bathroom, and our entire room smelled of a rich, dark godiva chocolate. The aroma is decadent…..however, that was my first hesitation. I wasn’t sure I wanted to smell like chocolate all day. I started the shower and tried to lather up. I was pleasantly surprised by the smooth and soft application of bar to skin and the lather was fluffy and light. The scent travelled well in the shower but wasn’t overwhelming. I liked the soap so well, I did something I never do…..I applied it to my face. I almost never put anything but my preferred facewash on my face. I was surprised at how great it felt!

After the shower I felt squeaky clean. The scent of chocolate blended with my own natural scent to create a scent that was no longer so chocolatey and very pleasant. Several hours later, I am still pleased with the light scent and the feel of my skin. I feel clean yet soft and moisturized at the same time. I would give this soap 4 stars. Oatmeal, Milk and Honey is the other bar I am reviewing. A wonderful, light-scented glycerin soap that makes gives you that squeaky clean feeling in the shower. Later in the day, I noticed that my skin still felt soft and silky. The oatmeal is a nice exfoliator while the milk and honey soothe and moisturize. I’ve been using it for a week and really noticed a difference in my skin.

All in all both Jaded and I agree that Soapier is definitely on our places to shop from now on! Be sure to sign up for our newsletter to read follow up product reviews of this and other great companies in the future.

I have been ordering products from Wylde Ivy for a few years now and have really grown to love a few select products and scents. This is a small family owned business in the wilds of Pennsylvania. Ashlee is a total gem, and has recently given birth to a set of amazing twin girls. While her pregnancy took her away from her business for a little bit, she is back in full swing. She had a nice little sale going on, of course I had to place an order! So I am not sure if all of the items I purchased will be in stock now or not. Be sure to comment here and tell us what your favorite Wylde Ivy products are, we love to hear from you!

A note on packaging and presentation. All the labels are professional grade and well presented. The soaps come in re-usable muslin bags which scores Wylde Ivy big points for trying to be eco friendly. They use minimal packaging which I really like.

I picked up a lovely scent that is new to me called Amber Chai. I purchased a bottle of silken body oil, soap and an all olive hand lotion. Both of these products are currently on clearance, so rush over and get yours. I HOPE that these products will be coming back. The Silken Body Oil is one of my favorite dry oil type formulations. It has calendula, rosemary and raspberry seed oils for an extra anti-oxidant boost. It is not oily at all and really helps the scent go further. You can use it in your hair and skin. I haven’t used my soap yet, but it smelled yummy out of the re-usable bag it came in. The scent is pretty strong, I really don’t smell any chai type spice, but the amber is divine. It isn’t over powering like some amber scents can be. This is a real winner.

I also picked up Lemon Cream Danish in the same combo of products as above. WOW, I am a big lemon curd fragrance fan, but this is a new favorite for me. I only see the perfume oil for sale on the site right now. I pray she brings this back. It really smells like the lemon filling they put in danish and lemon filled donuts. Fresh and sweet, it really doesn’t have any of the bready pastry scent, which is fine with me. This would make awesome hair products!

My absolute favorite new scent is the Black Tea Jasmine. I only got it in the all olive lotion. I don’t know what I was thinking, I really should have nabbed some perfume too. This smells exactly like jasmine tea. And you know I know my teas. *smiles* You can currently get this scent in several products including silken body oil, soap, spritzer and perfume oil. This is on my wish list now. Oh yeah, they have a convenient wish list feature that you can send to your friends. *hint hint*

Next up is the White Cashmere Silken Body Oil. This is an interesting scent of vanilla pods, orchid and sandalwood with a few other notes. It is really pretty and exotic. Not an overpowering floral, just unique and sexy. I am going to pick it up next time in perfume and all olive lotion.

Wylde Ivy almost always includes samples with each order which I really appreciate. This time was no exception. Included in my box were a sample of Ice Princess Perfume and Chocolate Mint Truffle Lotion. Admittedly, I am not a big mint fan. The perfume is a mint blend that has a great vanilla dry down. Creamy and good. The lotion smells just like an Ande’s dinner mint. Neither are scents for me, but if you like vanilla mint or mint scents both of these products would be right up your alley.

A note on Wylde Ivy Soaps. There is one scent that my husband and I really like and it is actually his favorite, Tuscan Garden. It is currently out of stock and should be coming back this spring / summer season. So far of the 15 or more scents I have tried over the years, this is the only scented one I like. We also use a bar of Sweet Oat Soap from the Classics Line on our face that is really nice and gentle. Now, that being said, and in all fairness, the soaps lather really nicely and don’t dry my skin out. My challenge is that they don’t have enough scent. I am a fragrance ho (as you may know), and like them strong. Their soaps get rave reviews from others, so don’t just take my word for it, try some out ourself, then come back and let us know what you think!

Over all the value of the products versus the price is excellent. Quality is top notch as far as ingredients. It is my opinion that their lotions and perfumes are their strongest products. If the soaps were stronger, I would shop here more often. Ashlee is extremely creative and provides excellent service and fast shipping times. Right at the moment she is gearing up for some new summer scents and is re-formulating some products. I cannot wait to see what she comes up with next.

Shopping Tips: Be sure to sign up for the Wylde Ivy Newsletter, this is where you will hear about some of the great specials and new products before anybody else. Also, they have a bonus points program, so for every dollar you spend, you accrue points that you can redeem towards your future purchases. Also, if you don’t see a product or scent that I have mentioned be sure to contact Wylde Ivy to see if they have some or when it will be back in stock.

This was a non sponsored post, meaning that I used my own money to buy these products for review, and I have received no monetary gain from this post.
