The delight and ambiance of a candle with the nourishing moisturization of a body lotion. Treat yourself to a little skin TLC, or share with a partner for a relaxing massage. The essential oil blend will transport you to a beach getaway; the lotion will leave your skin soft and touchable.
Ingredients
Shea Butter, Cocoa Butter, Soy Wax, Apricot Oil, Avocado Oil, Essential Oils for scent
To Use
Light the candle and let it burn until a pool of wax forms. Blow out the candle, dip your fingers into the melted wax, and massage into skin.
Protip: Always let the candle burn enough that the pool of wax is even across the top of the candle. Blowing out the candle while the pool is small will keep the candle from burning evenly and you'll end up with "candle tunneling," when the candle burns down the center leaving wasted wax around the outside.
Packaging + End of Life
This lotion candle is packaged in a reusable metal tin. When the candle burns out, wash and dry the tin. It can be reused or recycled with metal recycling.
