How It Melts And Performs

When lit, the candle melts into a silky warm oil that reaches an ideal skin temperature between 38 and 42 degrees Celsius. This gentle warmth enhances the massage experience without ever feeling too hot or uncomfortable.

Available in 95g, 315g, and 550g sizes, the candle’s burn time ranges from approximately 15 to 65 hours depending on size. Each version is designed to provide multiple massage sessions, delivering a consistent and enveloping fragrance that lingers softly in the room.

How To Use For Massage

Light the candle and allow the surface to melt into a generous pool of warm oil. Once a sufficient melt pool forms, safely extinguish the flame and wait a few seconds for the oil to settle to a comfortable temperature. Pour the warm oil into your hands or directly onto the skin, then massage using slow, even strokes to fully enjoy the nourishing texture and soothing scent.

Remember to trim the wick to approximately 5mm before each use and avoid burning the candle for longer than three hours at a time to maintain optimal performance and safety.

Ingredients

The base is a carefully balanced blend of natural soft soy wax, shea butter, and cosmetic-grade plant oils such as fractionated coconut or sweet almond oil. Beeswax is added for stability, and skin-safe fragrance or essential oils provide the signature scent. All fragrance levels comply with cosmetic standards to ensure safe, skin-appropriate use throughout your massage experience.

Caution

For external use only. Do not ingest. Avoid applying to broken or irritated skin. If contact with eyes occurs, rinse immediately with water. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Never leave a burning candle unattended and avoid placing it near flammable materials. Do not move the candle while the wax is still hot to prevent spills or burns.

Storage

Store the candle upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. Keeping the lid closed when not in use helps to preserve the fragrance and maintain the quality of the wax, which is especially important in South African climates.
