Gold Canyon Candles

"A candle is not dimmed by lighting another candle..."

As an independent demonstrator for Gold Canyon candles, my opinion might seem a bit biased, but I do have to say that I love them!! They are fantastic! Even if I decided to stop selling these wonderful candles I'd still have to buy them. It seems like they burn forever, and the scent holds strong all the way through. My favorite part is that they last all way to the bottom. When your finished there is barely enough wax left to cover the little metal piece that holds the wicks in place. If you haven't tried these candles yet then you're really missing out. :)

If I was doing a review for these candles I would definitely give them 5 stars LOL
