If you're new to Skinny Dip Candles, I'd like to take a quick moment to let you know what makes them special. Not only can they be used as a long-lasting candle, but also as a moisturizing lotion, massage oil or balm! Our unique formula is a soy wax base mixed with other skin-nourishing oils and butters. This mixture melts at a comfortable 102 degrees so you can pour the warm wax directly onto your skin for an extra luxurious experience.
They're easy to keep around for a quick self care ritual or as a tool for intimacy when used to massage your partner.
Even better? Besides the minimal fragrance, Skinny Dip Candles are made of all active ingredients! That means each one is natural and has benefits for your skin. No need for fillers here. All the ingredients combine to create a wax that quickly soaks into the skin and provides long-lasting moisturization and, when used as a massage oil, a smooth "glide".
