I am a qualified beauty therapist and i visit the annual professional beauty show. previously i walked past the stand that happened to have these burning which captured my senses. i was intrigued by the concept of a candle that is used as a massage oil as well. this is 1 product that you have to get a professional massage with to experience ultimate benefits.

I actually forgot I tried this. I got a sample of this in a Glambox back then when they were still around. The sample was the size of a tea light candle. And it does last long because like Priya mentioned, it burns slowly. I was also a bit freaked out about it because when I read the directions, I basically pictured myself as a character in the horror movie "House of Wax". But I was pleasantly surprised after using it. Not only is the fragrance invigorating, it is so good for your skin.

Being the pranker I am though, I decided to go all Psychoo chic on my husband and pretend I'm going to drop boiling hot wax on him. Made him scream like a little girl shame. But he too was actually surprised at the product (once he realised its not really wax of course) He was amazing mostly by the innovation and I quote him saying "what will they think of next!"

Great innovative product!

This is simply one of the most amazing yet craziest ideas someone has ever come up with, but you really have got to love this product because its simply amazing.

When I went to my favourite salon a year ago, there was a beautiful scent from a candle which definitely contained rose and jasmine. I really wanted to get one for my room so I asked my beautician about it, when I asked her where she bought that candle from she giggled, dipped her hand into the candle and rubbed it on my hand, as I watched her do that I was so freaked out you really wouldn't believe it, until I discovered the candle wax which is actually essential oils can be used as a body oil to nourish skin and has many healing properties.

I was so amazed with this product I just had to purchase it, of course you don't have to use it everyday, but once in a while is perfect, the product is really slow burning and can last you very long. The actual melted oil which pools once the candle is lit is only 2 degrees warmer than our body temperature so it's really not that hot when you touch it.

The candle can be used to nourish skin, and relieve skin from dryness and irritation. The soy lite is perfect for sensitive skin and doesn't irritate or trouble skin. The oil has a lovely warm, smooth and silky texture and feels so luxurious on skin, and is fragranced so beautifully. The fragrance is long lasting and all candles come in different scents.

The oil is non sticky and doesn't leave any residue behind. This product comes in super cute metal tins and glass and ceramic containers. It retails at R120 and is a bit pricey, however it's good enough for a splurge to spoil yourself or give as a gift to someone.
