Sexuality Happens

I love giving massages.  I do.  And I’ve reviewed a variety of massage candles – ie, candles that as they burn turn into warm massage oil.  One was part of a kit from Babeland, and I liked it.  Then I got a whole set of Babeland candles, and I liked those a lot, although the chocolate hazelnut was a bit much and made me hungry. I also got to check out the Jimmy Jane Afterglow candle, which was my favorite of the ones I had reviewed up to that point.

But now, I have a new favorite (and many reasons why – I’m not quite THAT fickle).  It’s the Lava Lotion candle, and I happen to have the jasmine scent, which is one of my favorite scents. It comes in three other options; sandalwood sage, eucalyptus peppermint and cucumber spice. I’m not sure about any of those scents – they sound a little odd, but then again, each to their own.

Why do I love this candle so much? Well, I mean, I love most massage candles because pour warm wax on my partners and massaging it in is always amazing and sensual and erotic and just a fuck ton of fun, but this one is a step above. Firstly, it melted at a great pace; I lit it when we started fucking, and there was a great amount of warm oil by the time we were done and I wanted to give Q a massage.

Secondly, it smelled amazing. Light and jasmininey, not super feminine, but still really nice. Even Q said she liked the scent.

Then there was the massage oil itself.  So nice.  I actually poured on way more than I needed, because in my experience, candle massage oil tends to rub itself into the skin very quickly, or turns into an almost waxy layer. Not this stuff – it stayed in a more liquid form for more than a thirty minute massage, and it just allowed my hands to slide over Q’s skin really easily.  However, it wasn’t so runny that I got it all over.

Q really liked this one too, having tested two or three of the other ones with me.

My one suggestion, really for all of these type of candles…have a pour-like spout on one side.  I have this pattern of pouring wax on my partner, and then it leaks/drips when I put it down onto my night stand.

Otherwise, I really love this candle, and would HIGHLY recommend it. It smells good, it makes an excellent massage oil, it has a lid for easy storage, it doesn’t require much of the melted oil/wax for massaging, so you get more uses out of it.  Basically, a really awesome candle.
