Apparently National Relaxation Day falls in August (oddly it’s on a weekday so not sure how relaxing it will be for most, but let’s roll with it…), and so in its honor why not treat yourself (and your hubby/boyfriend) to one of Emily & Tony’s Aromatherapy Massage Oil Candles ($38)? It’s the little things that make us happy and everyone loves coming home to a freshly scented space. The candles, designed for men or women, work double-duty as long lasting scents for your living space as well as moisturizers. When hot, the candle wax can be used as a moisturizer since it’s formulated with a nourishing soy and oil formula that cools quickly when worked through your hands. It’s not exactly something you can slather all over your body, but it works well for lips, elbows, and other small rough patches. There’s also something relaxing about simply rubbing the hot scented wax (I realize this sounds a bit odd…). The candles comes in three scents: Créme de Vanille, Coco, and Fougere (a musky scent). Of course there all kind of other things you can do with the hot moisturizing wax if you’re going to get creative, but I won’t get into those…
