Je Joue Luxury Massage Candle Jasmine & Lily

The Je Joue Luxury Massage Candle in Jasmine & Lily is a soy massage candle that melts into a pool of warm oil you pour straight onto the skin. Light it, wait for the wax to melt, then drizzle it over your partner's back or shoulders and massage it in. The floral Jasmine & Lily scent sets a soft, romantic mood. It suits couples who want a slow, sensual start to the evening.

How to use a massage candle

Light the candle and let it burn for about fifteen minutes, until the melted wax reaches the outer edges of the glass. Blow out the flame. You can then pour the warm liquid straight onto the skin, or wait a couple of minutes for it to cool if you or your partner are sensitive to heat. For the gentlest feel, dip your fingers into the pool and drizzle it over the body. Always test a few drops on your own inner wrist first, never pour while the flame is lit, and keep the candle on a stable surface away from bedding.

The feel of warm wax massage

Unlike a paraffin candle, soy wax melts at a low temperature into something closer to a warm oil. It spreads easily under the hands, so you can work it into the back, shoulders, legs and feet with long, slow strokes. Je Joue blends the soy with essential oils, and the maker says it leaves skin lightly scented and moisturized afterwards.

Setting the mood

Light it while you get ready so it's melted when you are; the scent fills the room as it burns. Lay an old towel under the person being massaged, warm your hands before you start, and take your time. It's for the skin, not for sex: keep it away from the genitals and don't use it as a lubricant, and wash it off before using latex condoms.
