So what's actually inside our Soy Massage Candles?

Soy - Many people know that soy is a high protein bean, but most of them don’t know that it is a major source of isoflavones, which are plant-derived compounds with estrogen-like biologic activity and chemical structure. According to Dr. Deby Susanti-Vinski, a beautician and anti-aging expert, isoflavones can maintain hormone balance and acts as an antioxidant, thus increasing moisture in your skin.

Shea Butter - The traditional use of the butter is to reduce the appearance of fine lines, scars and stretch marks, and to ease a variety of skin irritations, such as psoriasis, eczema and sunburn. Makers of cosmetics also mix this natural substance with other botanical ingredients. Shea butter is ideal for the topical application of cosmetic and medicinal formulas, because it melts on contact and is readily absorbed into the skin, without leaving a greasy residue.

Cocoa Butter -  It also provides the skin with collagen, which helps to diminish wrinkles and other signs of aging. People of color who have hyper-pigmentation, or patches of darker skin, can use  cocoa butter as a massage agent. While no scientific evidence exists saying that cocoa butter will remove hyper-pigmentation, men and women with this condition can benefit from cocoa butter's antioxidant and moisturizing properties. Massaging the affected areas with 
cocoa butter will increase circulation and help break down scar tissue. Source: Skin Benefits of Cocoa Butter

Apricot Kernel (with Vitamin E) oil - Apricot Kernel oil is high in skin-nourishing essential fatty acids.  Its light, smooth properties restore skin vitality in massage.  Softening, protecting and rejuvenating, Apricot Kernel oil is a natural source of vitamin B and skin-nourishing plant oil. Source: Aura Cacia  Since apricot kernel oil is moisturizing and quickly absorbed into the skin, it is often used as massage oil. Using a good quality oil can considerably enhance the benefits of massage, which range from reducing stress, pain and inflammation and instilling an overall sense of well-being. Apricot kernel oil is also very mild and non-irritating, making it suitable for children and infant massage. Source: Benefits of Apricot Kernel Oil

Sweet Almond Oil - Although sweet almond oil is said to be a moisturizer, it's really more of an emollient because it softens skin rather than hydrates it. However, sweet almond oil acts as a humectant to help prevent the loss of moisture. Margaret Grieve, author of "A Modern Herbal," says sweet almond oil contains more olein than olive oil, and that it's an excellent remedy for chapped hands. The oil is also reputed to relieve dry, flaking and itchy skin due to eczema, psoriasis and rashes. In addition, sweet almond oil may be applied to the scalp to relieve dryness and to condition hair roots. Sweet almond oil is readily absorbed into the skin without leaving a greasy residue. It's also suitable for all skin types. Source: The Skin Benefits of Sweet Almond Oil
