The Aphrodisiac Massage Candle
Using the massage candle is simple. The packaging has clear instructions. You light the candle, wait 20 minutes and then blow it out. So it's a question of lighting, waiting, blowing out and getting lit with, yes, the candle! When the candle burns, it produces a layer of oil on top. And that's what makes this candle so great. Because the massage candle has burnt, the massage oil feels nice and warm. When it touches your skin, or your partner's, it feels wonderfully soft and rubs in easily. And you don't need much for a good massage. When you blow out the candle, it's a good idea to wait for a bit. The massage oil may still feel too hot right after you blow it out. The oil is definitely not as hot as an S&M candle! The scent of this candle creates a wonderfully relaxed, seductive ambiance. I have the Rose petal version, but there are different scents available so there's something for everyone to enjoy.
The Conclusion
The Shunga Aphrodisiac Massage Candle can continue to 'bloom' in my bedroom. The beautiful packaging, the delicious scent and the warm oil are a relief to stiff muscles and bring some ambiance to the bedroom. After rubbing it in, your skin feels wonderfully soft and you can smell the rose petals for hours afterwards. Unlike other kinds of massage oil, the oil from the Shunga Massage Candle doesn't feel sticky. That means it doesn't matter if the candle is a bit more expensive, since you won't use up the oil quickly and you can enjoy it multiple times.
