This toy was definitely designed
I am a huge fan of
sensual massage, and absolutely love massage candles in general. When I saw that
Sex Kitten Wicked Wax was actually FLAVORED and edible, as well, I just had to give it a try! Eagerly, I ordered the Sex On the Beach flavor/scent.
After trimming the wick to ¼” like with any good candle, I lit the Wicked Wax and let it burn for 20 minutes. It burned at a nice pace, and the wax seemed to melt at a comfortable temperature (i.e. it did not burn my hands when I poured some out).
When I applied it to hubby's back for that sensual massage, the oil felt… not so sensual. It was a combination of oily, greasy, and “waxy” feeling. I know it is a massage oil, but this one felt more like giving a rub down with a kitchen-based oil than a silky, sensual massage oil. It was just way too thick and greasy feeling for my taste.
It certainly smelled like
Sex On the Beach, so I have no complaints there. When I went to taste it, however, it tasted like….wax. Well, wax with a faint Sex On the Beach flavor, but mostly wax. I guess it is better than tasting like perfume, and it is nice to have the option of a
massage oil that is edible, but the flavor on this one left something to be desired. It was not bad, it was just very, very faint.
The massage oil never really absorbed into hubby's skin. It definitely thickens up and becomes less oily after a time, but then it takes on a somewhat waxy/greasy character. It left him feeling rather greasy and sticky, and he needed a hot shower to remove the oil from his skin.
I like the fact that
Sex Kitten Wicked Wax does not taste unpleasant if you feel the urge to kiss/suck/bite the body part you are massaging with it. However, as a massage oil, I find it less than ideal--greasy and sticky as it cools.
Shunga's massage candles, definitely! They're not edible, but they smell great and melt into a really nice quality massage oil!
any recommendations for a better product?
No, definitely didn't work out so well.
Ew. That just doesn't sound right to me, a candle that melts into massage oil and is edible. It's like a multi-functional toy- usually doesn't work out so well.
