Using this Je Joue Jasmine & Lily scented luxury massage candle is easy. First, light the candle and let it burn for about 15 minutes. You'll know it's ready when the wax has melted and reached the outer edges of the glass. You have two options: you can pour the warm liquid wax right onto your skin for an immediate sensation, or if you prefer a gentler touch, let the wax cool for a few minutes before applying. As for precautions, make sure to place the candle on a heat - resistant surface to avoid any damage. Also, never leave the burning candle unattended. To maintain the candle, trim the wick to about a quarter - inch before each use. This will help the candle burn evenly and last longer. Enjoy your luxurious massage experience with this amazing candle!
