You know... until I moved out into my own place, candles weren't really on my radar. But when I did move out? Let's just say Mr. Sparkle and I quickly found that we go through a whole, whoooole lot of candles! He's always getting fancy with the spices in the kitchen, so that's a candle. Then there's the coziness of the living room, one in the bathroom for freshness, add one into the bedroom for a little romance, and you've got candles all. over. the. place. Some people are cat people. We are candle people.
So, when Jackpot Candles contacted me about reviewing one of their candles... it was a no-brainer! Their candles are 100% natural soy clean-burning candles, which is always a great thing. No funky soot marks on our walls, thankyouverymuch! And then there's the jackpot part of the candle, which is totally in line with the Seize the Sparkle mantra. Jackpot Candles contain a sparkly jewelry surprise! Hidden inside every candle is your choice of a necklace, earrings, or a ring with a possible value of $15 to $5,000, just waiting to be uncovered! Once you unwrap your treasure, you can log onto Jackpot Candles' website, enter your code, and have it appraised!
Scentwise, I gravitate toward fresh and floral scents. I debated over Sweet Pea and Ocean Breeze for a long time, but Ocean Breeze won out in the end! Jackpot Candles describes it as a "fresh fragrance with relaxing tones of clear skies, sparkling water, and sandy beaches." There are definitely a lot of layers to this fragrance. There's a fresh smell that's a mix between baby powder and laundry detergent that I just love. Then there's a tropical floral note in there that dances with a fruity, almost pineapply smell that is somehow not cloying in the slightest. It's absolutely delicious smelling, and the scent of a sunny, sandy beach is definitely in there. I'm not sure if there's a tiny bit of seaweed in there or what, but this candle definitely takess me right to a warm, sunny, gorgeous day on the beach. It's a nice relaxing vacation compared the snowy weather we've been having!
I burned my candle for a little over 4 hours the first day. The scent traveled nicely through my home, but wasn't overpowering. On the second day, the candle burned for almost 6 hours, and that's when I was able to get the foil package out of the melted wax. You've definitely got to have a little patience while waiting for the candle to melt enough to get your treasure out!
So................... what did I receive?!?
After letting the wax cool, I unwrapped the small foil package. I found a small, clear plastic bag inside the foil. My treasure was inside the plastic bag, which did a great job protecting my ring from excess wax. There were 2 stickers attached to side of my ring, one bearing the size, and the other with my appraisal information. My treasure was a very pretty silver ring with a sparkly pink stone, in the size I specified.
Appraisal time!
I entered my information into the website to find that my ring was worth $27.00! With a price point of $24.95 per candle, you're definitely getting a great value, considering the lowest appraisal will be $15. Knocks the price of the candle down to $9.95 when you think about it... :)
