Hi China Girl, you should also have a look at the Iluma lids as they help to control the flame so not so much soot but they collect some too. I find them much nicer to look at than the shades and they are mor compact too. SianCan anyone tell me if using a shade really does stop sooting?
I used to like the melts, but they spat droplets of wax everywhere.
I've never actually used the jars, because I have pale walls and am concerned about staining from lit candles.
I have found some lovely fragrances in town, and would like to try them.
