Does It Feel Like Love is Gone?

Does it feel like love is gone? Sometimes after the Valentine's buying rush, it can feel that way. No fear - here at Scandle we are here for you. We use Pink Grapefruit and Spearmint to give us an Uplifting boost during the post Valentine's Day blues. As many of you may know, we are located in the great state of Texas where we typically enjoy fairly mild winters. This year, the cold winter weather sent us indoors and kept us there longer than usual. Between the winter chill and the Valentine's Day blues all we wanted to do was hide under the covers and eat all that leftover chocolate. We were definitely in need of a boost!   What a great time to use our Uplifting Aromatherapy Essential Massage Candle.  Every wonder why we created our Uplifting blend of Pink Grapefruit and Spearmint? We searched for a great combination of pure essential oils to power our Boost  Massage Candles. During that process we settled on an invigorating blend of Pink Grapefruit and Spearmint.  Other than the great smell, we want to share with you some of the traits of these essential oils that led us to pick this combo?  Unique characteristics of: Pink Grapefruit- It is lightly scented and made from the peel of the Citrus Paradisi.  According to The Healing Remedies Sourcebook by C. Norman Shealy, “Aromatherapy massage with grapefruit oil is invigorating and uplifting, and may help to treat depression.” 1 Spearmint - It has appeared in reports from Ancient Greece, Rome, Egypt and even Biblical texts that signal the use of Spearmint for medicinal purposes. 2 This is how the Scandle team puts a little pep in our step!

Ready to Shine?  A.K.A “What is Shimmer?” This is one of the more common questions that we get here at Scandle.  So, what does the dictionary say about Shimmer? to shine with or reflect a subdued, tremulous light; gleam faintly.3 Sounds great to us, and our Shimmer Massage Candles do just that.  We added an extra ZING to your experience with our spa-grade Massage Candles, with a Gold Shimmer option to any of Original fragrances (up to 20 available throughout the year!).  Available in 10 (canister), 4 (tin) and our 7 ounce(refill) sizes. So, really, what does the Shimmer do?  The Gold Shimmer added to our Massage Candles enhances the natural beauty of you (and your clients’) skin by impacting the way your skin reflects light. Ever feel like you're glowing after using a bronzer or having a skin treatment? That is what our unique Shimmer Massage Candles add to the skin.  Not only do you get the moisturizing, luxurious oil, but you can also experience the extra sheen afterwards. If you are in one of the cold (BRRRRRRRRRRRRR) climates this time of year, our Shimmer Original Massage Candles are a welcome addition to your skin on these dreary days.
