Firstly, these candles smell amazing- actual essence of cucumber lends a clean refreshing scent while the "wax" (actually a secret formula with Jojoba, Shea Butter, Vitamin E, Soy and Aloe) melts into a warm massage oil that is exactly body temperature. Woah. This marvelous innovation means that this candle sits unassumingly on your coffee table or mantle making your room smell marvelous until the moment strikes and you can pour it, warm, directly onto the skin. Then, it's up to you to use your imagination.
