Lelo Flickering Touch Massage Candle, medium quality candle with some good qualities
This Candle provides a beautiful clear yellow light, and puddles into a oily, yet nicely usable massage oil. The container is beautiful, decorative and convenient, although lacks a pour spout or applicator and wax may be hard to control. The main problem is uneven burning, "well" production around the wick, and long burning times to create oil for massages. However, the massages from this wax/oil are good quality, moisturize and soften skin and glide well for a superior massage.

Pros

Follow-up commentary
4 months after original review
I have said I still like this product and I do. But, it actually works better as a regular scented candle than a massage candle. It's messy and it doesn't pour well, and even though I added some scent because I am not fond of the apricot kernel scent that seems dominant with this candle, we still prefer the JimmyJane massage candles for massage.
The "well" in the center of the candle persists, even though I push the wax into the candle as it's burning, have done long burn times and tried to fix the problem. There is a lot of unused wax around the perimeter of the well, and if I don't get to it when the candle is hot, it hardens and then is hard to light the next time.
However, I do like the way it looks on my dresser, the black glass is classy (althouth I still don't like the strange green plastic handle on the metal lid) and a little of the light shines through to make it look romantic.
We use it more for illumination than for massages. I don't care for the scent, and I prefer the JimmyJane. It does look pretty, but for the price, I probably will not replace it when the candle is gone.
I will keep the glass container, perhaps for writing instruments, hair supplies, small jewelry, etc or making my own candle when the wax is gone.
