I want to buy either massage oil or a massage candle to use with my OH. What would people recommend?
Nothing beats a good massage oil! I highly recommend the Earthly Body range :)
I much prefer massage oil, much easier to control. I love this http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=25363
My two favourites are Swoon massage oil and Earthy bodies naked in the woods massage oil.
Both are very good quality and smell divine, very different in fragrance. I hope this helps.
Oil! Another vote for Earthly Body
I prefer candles, I like how they fill the room with scent and warm the oil to a lovely temperature, plus sitting watching the candle burn relaxes me. I tend to pour out too much oil in one go so for me candles are less messy, since I only burn them until the amount I need is melted (meaning I can't pour out too much).
Also vote for Earthly body, their candles and oils are both lovely so can't go wrong whichever you pick :)

I was looking at those candles, but the scents in the sale didn't appeal to me, the ethics certainly do, so I'm thinking of waiting for a bit then getting one of the jimmyjane ones.

We have the JimmyJane bourbon candle, it smells divine! Very sweet and caramely for whiskey, reminds me of Jack Daniels. I actually just realised ours is 2 years old, it lives on my bedside unit now because it wafts that gorgeous smell through the room even after being open so long! Haven't tried the other scents but if they're anything like the bourbon one I'd reccomend those too, really good quality candles in my opinion :)
Massage oil!
I've tried a few oils and candles from LH and I cannot fault any of them but oil is much more intimate feeling I think. I love these ones:

They are both really smooth and smell lovely ^_^ They let your hands glide softly and neither are sticky (which is why I love them as I use them on OH) and you get a good dose out of a small amont before it dries up.
We've tried both. If you're unsure I'd go with an oil. We are stocked up on http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=26094 enjoy x
We've tried several of the earthly body candles, and they are nice to massage with, but my OH things they leave her feeling sticky, so we tend to use oil more, or a combination - oil on the body and candle on the legs/arms, which you can with earthly body since the scents are available in both forms
I would say oil as I love seeing oil on lovely ladies. Its such a turn on for me lol.
I like both, but prefer oil as for me it feels more soft and moisturising. As subby mentioned candles can sometimes feel a bit sticky afterwards. I highly recommend the Earthly Body range - these are gorgeous  xx

The Coco de Mer candles. Worth every penny.
Thanks everyone for your replies. Are the massage oils edible? 😏
I don't think those ones are no, there are some that are lickable such as these:
oil every time. I had a fsog candle..used in once and left it in the draw for a while. went to use a second time a few months later and it had gone very strange on top, didn't smell nice at all either. I actually ended up being Burnt. it's put me off lol. maybe just my luck.
Candles and oil both have there plus side oil speeds better and gives longer slippery moister but i adore the warmth of the candles but they don't tend to feel slippery very long i trued the warming caremal oil but not the same and felt tacky..
Oil and the hot rocks on 3 for 10 deal are fab together a favourite oil is swoon it smells fresh and is long lasting
It depends on what mood you're trying to set...granted you'll probably want to end up rolling around naked butttt romantic or erotic? I think a little candle light makes it a little more romantic than simply oil itself and I myself love massage candles 🤗
I prefer oils for actual massage but I do love myself a good massage candle. However I do just find myself messing about and making my place smell nice than doing anything sensual with it haha
I think I'm going for the cherry massage oil. Thanks everyone
