The experience
The best part comes after you blow it out.
The room smells good. The candlelight has done its job. Then you blow out the flame, spoon a little of the warm oil onto your skin, and feel it glide over dry spots. Your skin feels soft, the scent stays close, and a candle you were already enjoying becomes a moment you want to take your time with.
Light it
Enjoy the fragrance while the candle burns.
Let it melt
Let a small pool form as the ingredients melt into warm, silky body oil.
Rub it in
Blow out the flame and test the temperature. Spoon out a little and massage into hands, legs or feet. A little goes a long way.
In our customers’ words
Loved for more than the scent.
Customer feedback about our body oil candles across the collection.
Love these candles, they smell good and melt into a soothing lotion perfect for winter hands. Purchased extra for gifts, they are budget friendly but feel high end. Definitely recommend.
I am obsessed with these lotion candles! Their description matches their scent beautifully! It is also so comforting to know that they are created by someone who cares about what we are putting onto our bodies. I will absolutely be purchasing again in the future! Darcy M.
Wonderful customer service. I will definitely buy again.
