Please contact us at (936) 653-8979 before sending fax or you

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!
