due to job-related obligations. The business was started back up about three
years ago and is stronger than ever before.

· Where
to Order
o
Through Messaging on Facebook Group at Junky
Monkey Facebook Group
o
www.JunkyMonkeyWax.com (WORK
IN PROGRESS!)
· Availability:
o
It is not difficult to order at all. Customs
are always available. At this point, orders are done via messaging on Facebook.
The vendor then sends an invoice. They do have a website, but it is currently a
work in progress so I would not utilize that for ordering unless the vendor has
given the all-clear through her group. Not to mention, ordering through the
Facebook Group ensures that you can get in on any sale your order qualifies
for.
· Turn
Around Time (TAT):
o
The TAT is dependent on the current order load,
but the vendor tries to get all orders out within 2 to 7 days.
· Price:
o
$$$$
· Cure
Time:
o
The vendor recommends at least 3 days of cure
time for those who have difficulty waiting. The ideal cure time is two weeks,
especially for bakery scents.

Wax Melting Review:
· Detailed
Description of Each Smell:
o
Vanilla Bean Blast – A creamy fruit loop scent
that smells like a freshly poured bowl of cereal.
o
Pea-Fect Love – A beautiful delicate and subtly
sweet perfume scent. Pea-Fect for everyone who melts, no matter their scent
preference. This may be my favorite chocolate orchid blend I have tried thus
far.
o
Sassy Sweethearts – An effervescent cherry-dominated
fruit scent with a sweet-tart-like scent.
o
Aloe Vera + Cucumber – A refreshing spa scent
that is smooth with a cool cucumber scent.
o
Cherry Cream - A creamy cherry scent. It
reminds me of a bit of cherry ChapStick.
o
Lemon Pucker – A light crisp but sweet lemon
scent.
o
Lemon Unhinged – A sweet lemon scent with
subtle bakery undertones.
o
Lemon Poundcake- A lemon-scented bakery scent.
The bakery notes tone down the lemon intensity.

Sum Up:
· Overall
Impression
o
This vendor came highly recommended by wax
groups on Facebook! This vendor has something for everyone. The vendor has a
huge scent selection and a list of customer-created blends. Anything you can
imagine; you can create with this vendor. I hate naming my blends, and the
vendor created some very creative names for the blends I made.
· Pros
o
Huge scent selection.
o
Huge selection of customer blends.
o
Customs are easily ordered!
o
Great Communication with Vendor!
o
Deceptively strong scents that from cold smell
you would never suspect would be so strong melted!
· Cons
o
No pour date on the package.
o
No scent descriptions on the website.
· Overall

· Overall
Disliked Scents
o
Cherry Cream
· If it
ends up in a destash, why?
o
Lemon Unhinged – I prefer the other lemon scent
I got better, and as a wax addict I am selective on what I keep.
o
Cherry Cream – Out of all the cherry-based
scents I received, this was my least favorite. Although I love the smell of
cherry ChapStick, I don’t want it as a wax melt.
o
Lemon Poundcake – I like this scent, but I
prefer the other lemon scent I got, and again, as a wax addict I have to be
selective on what I keep.
· How could
the wax be improved? /Was it missing something?
o
I recommend having pour dates on packages to
help know when products are cured. Even if labels are pre-printed, a
handwritten pour date is beneficial.
o
Although some scents are common, I recommend
scent descriptions on the website.
· Was it
worth the money?
o
Absolutely
· Would
I purchase from this vendor again?
o Absolutely
