How does a massage candle work?
- We light the candle and let it melt for at least twenty minutes ;
- We enjoy the soft lighting it provides and the delicious scent it diffuses ;
- We blow out the flame ;
- We immediately pour the oil that has formed onto our partner's body ;
- Then we enjoy a delicious massage with warm, scented oil.
Does a massage candle burn?
No! Massage candles are not ordinary candles — their composition is different. A massage candle contains soy wax and plant-based oils, such as coconut or jojoba oil. This blend has a very low melting point, meaning it melts at around 35°C. And 35°C is roughly the temperature of a nice bath — perfect for promoting relaxation and muscle relief. The oil then penetrates the skin, leaving it soft, supple and well moisturised.
How do you choose your massage candle?
-
Scented massage candles: choose a fragrance you love that will enhance the moment — whether you're in the mood for something musky or sweet, we have what you need ;
-
Aphrodisiac massage candles: some candles contain spices such as ginger, or even pheromones. Their role? To heighten desire as their fragrance spreads around you ;
-
Indulgent massage candles: some candles are kissable — meaning that once applied to your partner's skin, you can cover them in kisses with no contraindications. Others are edible, and the kisses will then have a sweet flavour.
