Juicy Fruit Candle!
The Shunga massage candle, while a bit waxier than some, makes for a terrific, warm, sweetly scented massage. The wax melts to a nice, thick, oil that glides on the skin and lasts as long as you want to rub, massage and caress. The scent is reminiscent of Juicy Fruit gum, which some may not like; it is fruity and sweet. Any remaining wax/oil that doesn't absorb into the skin is easily washed off and is non staining.Published: June 19, 2009
Pros:
Mostly natural ingredients, non staining, fairly slick and long lasting, no perfumey taste.
Cons:
A bit waxy, scent may be too sweet for some.
Follow-up commentary

Still in love with Shunga. In fact, I bought another of these candles because I found I like it, - if not always for massage cuz I never seem to get enough of those! - then just to have the smell surrounding me when I'm in the tub. It burns quite slowly for such a soft candle. My original one is still about a quarter full and I've used it at least fifteen, twenty times while I bathed, occasionally as a heavier oil/lotion for rough knees and heels and elbows and twice for massage.
Definitely worth the cost, definitely a product I will stay stocked up on.

What is your favorite flavour?

I am not sure what flavour to purchase for the Shunga massage candle, fruit just seems so non-descriptive, so I figured who better to ask then everyone here.

Why is there a spoon with a candle. Is it to scoop up hot wax?

Seriously? It states it's purpose in the overview. Yes, you can spoon it. Can ya be a lil more descriptive in your titles please.

Thank you for viewing Shunga massage candle review page!
Having used one for the first time (a jj) finally, I think these candles are so cool! I like the jj scents better I think.
Good review!
i wanted something kissable and I wanted the scents to match but, otherwise, yeah, I normally prefer the jj scents. I SO want to try a bourbon and a black currant. Mmm
Very nice. At first I was thinking Juicy Fruit? Gag! But you make it all sound so yummy!
Yum. Juicy Fruit actually sounds good to me. Though I'd be curious about the other scents, for comparison purposes.
Thanks for the review! And.. bourbon and black currant? Where are these? MUST. HAVE.
Thanks for the intimate, thoughtfully written review! Also, thanks for recommending JJ in there. I'll have to take a peek at their Afterglow candles.
Nice review!
Great review!! Thanks!
good review
