It smells good, but...

It's a great smelling candle, but it doesn't work well as a massage oil. I highly recommend it to make your house smell delicious, but just go and buy some massage oil if that's what you want.

I can honestly say that I'm in the middle with this product. First of all, I have to say that the smell is out of this world. The site claimed that it was passion fruit/vanilla. Its pungently fruity smell filled the room in a few short minutes. I've never been a big fan of fruity scents, but this candle smells so delicious that it makes your mouth water.

Now, down to the real test: giving/getting a massage with it.
When it's first poured onto the skin, the liquid reverts back to a waxy texture. It feels sticky and waxy on the skin. Even after being rubbed in, the waxy texture remains. Luckily, however, I only tried it on my arm; it would feel disgusting if it were used as a back massage oil. The texture is so draggy that it takes away from the feeling of the massage. It doesn't allow your fingers to slide along the skin to get deep into knots. It took scrubbing with a loofah and soap to get the gross feeling to go away.

Also, beware of its amazing STAINING power! The liquid dripped from my hands somehow, and it stained my bed sheets! Even after throwing them in the wash, an oily stain remained. So, if you're going to use this product, I suggest putting a towel down, or using bed sheets that you're okay with getting stained. You might want to steer clear of all clothing products (especially your lingerie) when you're using this stuff.

All in all, this product will serve its purpose as a candle better than its purpose as a massage oil. When it's being burned, the candle smells magnificent. It just falls very, very short when you apply it to your skin. It has absolutely no nourishing ingredients, and it feels gross on the skin. All I have to say is, skip it.

    Ew, the texture sounds gross- but you made the smell sound so good that I'm kind of curious now, lol!
