    Where are you located?

    Do I need a Sales Tax ID to purchase from Day-Star?
    If you reside in the state of Texas, you will need to provide a copy of your sales tax and a copy of the Sales Tax Resale Certificate. You can find this form at: www.window.state.tx.us/taxinfo/taxforms/01-3391.pdf
    Please fill this out and return to Day-Star via fax or mail. Please contact us at (936) 653-8979 before sending fax or you may mail it to:

    Day-Star Candle & Soap Supply
    320 Robison Road
    Coldspring, TX 77331

    Otherwise, you will be charged state sales tax.


    If I need an MSDS sheet for any Day-Star oils that I purchase, can I obtain this from you?
    Yes! We will get the necessary MSDS sheet out to you as soon as possible!

    Please remember that although we do test in candles; we do not test in all wax types. Therefore, we recommend that you purchase a sample for your particular wax before purchasing larger amounts. We have not tested our oils in Gel: please do your own testing for compatibility and polarity.

    Our oils are uncut, highly-concentrated, and manufactured for use in paraffin wax blends, soy wax, cold-process soap, and skin applications (unless noted otherwise). Due to the complexity of our oils, please remember that “Out of the Bottle” reviews are not the best way to judge the oil. Always test in your particular application for the full-bodied results of the oil: many times the complex notes do not come to life until it is in the application.

    Our fragrances are formulated for Day-Star by a master perfumist. Our fragrance manufacturer is required to follow the standards and guidelines set by IFRA (International Fragrance Association). This Association tests all aroma chemicals and determines which ones are considered skin safe and can be used in fragrance formulations for skin product applications. And, in the case of some aroma chemicals that are questionable, they determine the acceptable percentage that can be used in the formula to maintain a "skin safe" status. Our fragrances comply with IFRA standards.


    If I do not like the oils purchased, can I return them?
    No. We cannot accept returns on Fragrance Oils. Please keep this in mind and order samples for testing before making a large purchase.

    Do you have a storefront?
    At this time, we are only a home-based internet business. We will keep you updated if this changes in the future. If you are in the area, we may consider making an exception… by appointment only to help you save on shipping!
