How It Melts And Performs
When lit, the candle gently melts into a warm oil that reaches a comfortable 38 to 42 degrees Celsius on the skin. This temperature is ideal for soothing massages, enhancing relaxation without overheating. Available in three sizes, each offers generous burn times ranging from 15 to 65 hours, allowing multiple indulgent sessions.
The melt pool forms evenly, creating an enveloping fragrance experience that softly perfumes your environment while nourishing your skin with every use.
How To Use For Massage
Light the candle and allow the surface to melt into a warm pool of oil. Once a sufficient amount has melted, extinguish the flame and wait a few seconds for the oil to cool slightly. Test the temperature before carefully pouring the warm oil into your hands or directly onto the skin.
Massage with slow, deliberate movements, reapplying as needed throughout your session. Remember to trim the wick to about 5 mm before each use and avoid burning the candle for longer than three hours at a time to maintain optimal performance.
Who Will Love It
This massage candle is perfect for those who appreciate refined simplicity and a fresh, uplifting fragrance. Ideal for individuals or couples seeking a serene escape, as well as professional therapists who value high-quality, skin-safe products that elevate their treatments.
Best Moments To Use It
