a candle and lotion, all in one!

candles in upcycled jars with clay sculpted lids

Still looking for that perfect little something for your Valentine? Check out these candles from StepBeyond for an upgraded version of an ever-popular gift. What's so special about these candles, you ask? Not only are they hand poured from all natural oils, but they also posess magical powers! OK, so maybe not magical powers, but they can do something that my other boring candles can't do. They turn into body lotion! It's true!

From StepBeyond: TO USE - Simply light and burn the candle until a small pool of oil forms (a little goes a long way) then blow out the candle and apply as desired. (As this candle burns at a much lower temperature than regular wax you have no need to fear burning yourself.)

Love it! There are a variety of scents to choose from, like Jasmine Rose and Vanilla Lavender, and each upycled jar has a different lid, sculpted from clay to give these candles an extra-gifty look. So, rather than running out to some generic bath and body store the night before Valentines day, do yourself, your Valentine, and the planet a favor, and get one of these instead! (Just be sure to act fast! StepBeyond is having some serious sales and these definitely won't last long!)
