So you thought hot dripping candle wax was only for those about to engage in some…playtime. Aloette’s Hot Soy Manicure Treatment Candle will quickly change your mind and have you wanting to indulge in this innovative and heavenly manicure product.
The fragrance is absolutely dreamy–an orange creamsicle, sweet and delicious. The candle burns clean with a cotton wick. It heats up the soy, orange and vanilla oil combination to which you can dip your finger into (once the flame is blown out of course!) and rub the oil over your cuticles and massage into your hands to heal cracks and dryness. The warm oil feels great on your skin, almost like a paraffin treatment.
I absolutely love this candle and keep it at my desk. The fragrance will lift your spirits and the oils will soothe your skin. Your hands will be ready for that polish in no time and you’ll have people asking for the business card of your manicurist.

I have never heard of this, but I have gotten parafin wax manicures at the spa. I will have to try this!
Jessica - June 20th, 2008 at 10:18 pmI have made the switch to soy candles. I also have one of those wax dip appliances that melts the wax so you can put your hands in it and then put on the gloves to moisturize. It’s made to use paraffin wax. I haven’t used it lately because I have been trying to find out if I can get the soy wax that you can melt in it. Do you know if I can get the wax for it in soy?
Brenda - July 2nd, 2008 at 10:23 amThat’s a good question Brenda and I don’t know the answer. But the candle I reviewed is awesome as you only need to burn the candle for a few minutes and then dip your finger 2-3 times and rub the oils on your cuticles and hands. It seems to last forever and well worth the money.
Shannon Nelson - July 2nd, 2008 at 10:27 amI love candles but can’t burn them anymore because I’m scared my fluffy cats will catch their tails on fire! They’re so nosy I know they’d be all around the burning candle! not a good idea!

Anna S. - August 23rd, 2009 at 4:59 pmAnna nail bitting some times is not for me. I nail bite all the time and some times it hurts. So i have to get them done. Just to keep them out of my mouth
