Overview of PartyLite

PartyLite Review 2

In the early 1900s, Mabel Baker, a schoolteacher from Cape Cod began experimenting with making candles as a hobby. She started by using her homemade candles as presents for family and friends. But the people in her community took notice and the demand for Mabel’s candles increased. 

After years of dedication, persistence, and patience, Mabel reaped the rewards of her hard work and her business took off. Now, the brand has over nearly 60,000 people worldwide selling PartyLite candles online and through home parties

The brand’s mission is quite simply: “Love it. Share it. Sell it.”  PartyLite not only produces more than 600 products but also fosters community and connection with their employees and customers alike. 

Before we check out the brand’s most popular products, we will give you the main highlights in this PartyLite review:

PartyLite Coconut Cove Universal Tealight Candles Review

If you like pina coladas and getting caught in the rain, then you’ll love the Coconut Cove Universal Tealight Candles

These tealights are the ideal size to transform your bathroom into a luxurious spa. Each one has a burn time of 4 to 6 hours

PartyLite Mulberry 3-Wick Jar Candle Review

Nothing beats the smell of grandma’s homemade bumbleberry pie. This sweet scent can make you feel warm, comfortable, and safe at any time. Why not emulate that feeling more often with a candle of the same scent?  

The Mulberry 3-Wick Jar Candle includes a mixture of blackcurrant, blackberry, mulberry and pomegranate notes. With a fragrance intensity of 4 out of 5, this candle will provide a powerful and bold smell. 

You’ll also get 25 to 45 hours of burn time with this 3-wick candle. Due to the size and potency, we believe this candle would be ideal for large spaces such as a living room or dining area. It would also make for a great piece of home decor with its elegant botanical glass jar vessel.

PartyLite After Dark Candle Lamp Review

A lamp that doesn’t require a power source? Could it be? 

The After Dark Candle Lamp contains your candle in a super chic black lamp exterior made from metal and glass. During the day this candle holder acts as a tasteful piece of home decor. 

Once it’s dark, you can light a candle inside of it to reveal an exquisite floral pattern. 

Measuring 9½” by 5¼”, this candle holder is the equivalent size to a standard lamp you’d place on your nightstand. Dare we suggest you replace your current lamp with this piece to save on your energy bill?

PartyLite Heirloom Sunflower Jar Candle Holder Review

The sunflower has been a star in many pop songs and movies of the past century—we’re looking at you Shrek. Why is it so popular, you ask? Well, this sunny floral symbolizes adoration and loyalty, with roots in ancient Greek mythology. 

That being said, the Heirloom Sunflower Jar Candle can be the cutest new addition to your home. Made from antique metal, this piece is neutral enough to camouflage with any interior design theme. 

We think this piece would especially appeal to gardeners and plant lovers. Adding an element of this coveted flower to your home decor will surely and subtly brighten the room and your mood. 

Purchase the Heirloom Sunflower Jar Candle for $15. At the time of this PartyLite review, this candle holder is on sale for $13

PartyLite Tricolor Taper Holder Trio Review

The Tricolor Taper Holder Trio looks as if it was stolen straight out of the Hogwarts dining hall. Or, perhaps a Lorde music video?  

Anyone who wants to dress up their dining table will enjoy these beautiful candle holders in silver, gold, and black. You could also incorporate this piece along with other candles for extra luminescence. 

This classy set is ideal for minimalists who want to add a bit of glam to a dull area of the house, without being too flashy. Use these holders as a staple piece in your home or take them out for special occasions like holiday gatherings.

Who Is PartyLite For? 

PartyLite Review 10

The brand seems to target older millennial and baby boomer women. Their shy social media presence makes it clear they aren’t interested in gaining the approval of the young-ins.

Those who enjoy candles and the comfort that comes with them will love the wide selection of PartyLite home fragrances and accessories. Unless you’re a child, these products can be used by anyone. Even those who are sensitive to scents can opt for one of the many unscented candles the brand offers. 

PartyLite Reviews: What Do Customers Think?

PartyLite Review 11

If you’re like most people, you probably rely on customer reviews before making a purchasing decision. We get it. After all, customers of the brand will know firsthand what the product is like and can share their opinions and experiences with others. 

That’s why this section of our PartyLite review will showcase the customer ratings from the brand’s website and third-party sources. We want you to get a well-rounded view of the brand by hearing from people who’ve been there. 

Although reviews on the brand’s site were scarce, we found positive feedback on the Mulberry 3-Wick Jar Candle which averaged a 5/5 star rating from 11 reviews. Lots of customers speak highly of the aroma of this item. 

One 5-star customer review from the brand’s site wrote: “I was looking for a good transitional candle from Summer to Fall and this was exactly what I was looking for! A sweet and soothing aroma that can be enjoyed whether you’re firing up your computer for a workday, or winding down on the couch. Will definitely order again in the future!” 

Another 5-star reviewer on the same thread commented: “These are the best air fresheners; I always get positive comments from family, friends, and the random delivery person about how nice my house smells!” 

On Chick Advisor the PartyLite tealight candles received an overall rating of 4.2/5 stars from 10 reviews. Many reviewers comment on the vast selection of scents available. 

A 5-star reviewer remarked: “Love that these are available in many scents. Sensual, fruity, cool and warm scents. These last quite a long time for the size. The scent fills the room and many of the scents are unique.” 

People are loving the way the candles make their homes smell. But does the scent hold up after time? We found out for this PartyLite review. 

From 59 reviews on Viewpoints, a 5-star reviewer stated: “Some coworkers had a PartyLite party over 10 years ago and I didn’t have a lot of money so I just bought a couple boxes of tea lights. They smelled so good I hated to use them often but recently I just used the last of the tea lights and the aroma is just as strong now as it was 10 years ago.”

It’s not all sunshine and rainbows though. Unfortunately, while writing this PartyLite review we noticed some complaints about the cost and quality of the brand’s products. Still, the brand has lots of discounts so maybe opt for a sale item before committing to something full-price. 

Is PartyLite Legit?

PartyLite Review 12

Yes, as far we could tell, the brand is an established company and operates ethically. 

We noticed a few common PartyLite reviews about online ordering with the brand. People were mostly unimpressed about the shipping and delivery fees. The brand is not super transparent about shipping costs on their website, so it makes sense some people were caught off guard. 

Is PartyLite Worth It?

PartyLite Review 13

Choosing the right candle can make or break the energy you’re trying to cultivate for the day. For example, you don’t want something too overpowering if you’re scent sensitive (scentsitive?), but on the other end of the spectrum if you enjoy aromas then you’ll want something with more strength. 

PartyLite provides customers with options by categorizing all their fragrances using the fragrance intensity system. Not a lot of candle companies do the same. 

As well, the brand has several deals and discounts in rotation making them competitively priced in the premium candle industry. 

PartyLite is also transparent about the ingredients used in their candles which are all cruelty-free and clean. No need to worry about filling the air of your home with toxic chemicals, parabens, or sulfates. 

For these reasons, we recommend giving the brand a go. 

PartyLite Promotions & Discounts 

PartyLite Review 14
