From Candles to Skin Nourishment: How Massage Candles Differ from Regular Candles

Candles have been cherished companions in our pursuit of relaxation and tranquillity for centuries. There's something inherently soothing about the soft, flickering glow of a candle, filling a room with its warm and inviting light. But what if we told you there's a kind of candle that takes your relaxation to a whole new level? Enter the world of massage candles - a fusion of cozy scents and nourished soft skin. 

Massage candles represent a beautiful fusion of traditional candlelight and modern self-care. These candles are not just about aesthetics and ambiance; they are designed to nourish your skin and provide a luxurious spa-like experience right in the comfort of your own home. I know what you're thinking ‘Wait, candles aren’t for skin!’ - just keep reading! 

Massage candles are a relatively new addition to the world of candles. They were created with a focus on enhancing your well-being and offering a multi-sensory experience. These candles go beyond aesthetics and scent, as they are crafted with a special blend of natural ingredients to create a soothing and nourishing massage oil. There aren’t too many on the market right now so it’s important you choose the best quality candle. 

The essential oils used in massage candles play a crucial role in elevating your relaxation experience. For instance, our Hygge Ceramic Massage Candle includes a dreamy blend of soya, shea butter, and almond oil infused with fragrant essential oils such as lavender, ylang-ylang, peppermint, and cedarwood. The result is a fragrance that transports you to serene landscapes, evoking feelings of relaxation and peace.

1. You simply light the candle, allowing the soothing aromas to fill your room. 
2. After about an hour, you blow out the candle and wait for a minute to let it cool slightly. 

3. Then, the transformed wax becomes warm, nourishing oil that you can pour into your hands and gently massage into your skin.

   
   

    It's an indulgent experience that leaves your skin silky soft, with no greasiness.

Here are some of the key distinctions between regular candles and massage candles:

Purpose: Regular candles are primarily for ambiance and enhancing mood, while massage candles are designed for skincare and relaxation.

Ingredients: Our Massage candle uses natural ingredients, including plant oils, butters and essential oils, while our regular candles usually contain only soy wax and essential oils. 

Nourishing Effect: Massage candles leave your skin feeling soft and nourished, whereas regular candles do not offer this benefit.

We don't expect you to take our word for it, though. Here's what some of our customers have to say:

Review 1: "I love this so much, it smells absolutely gorgeous and feels like such a treat. Love that it can be used as a body lotion after burning, really nice to light it in the bath and then use as body lotion afterwards."

Review 2: "This is my second purchase of the massage candle- yes, it really is that good! It comes in a beautiful tactile pot, the candle scent is glorious and reminds me of warm summer evenings. Follow that with using the warmed oil to spread over your skin….. heavenly. It’s not the first time I’ve tried to locate where a wonderful smell is coming from and then realised it’s me!"

Review 3: "I'm saving this one, but I can already tell I'm going to love it. Beautiful ceramic holder, gorgeous scent. Very indulgent, just perfect."
