Product Details

Unlike normal candles the candle wick is made of hemp which is lead free and also it burns by leaving no toxic end products. The hydrating properties of Dermastir candle oil are remarkable and it is recommended to use not only during a massage but also after having a bath or even as an after sun. Dermastir massage candle oils are made in France and the perfumes that are blended in the Dermastir candle oils are all made in Grasse.

Legend has it that Catherine de Medicis was behind this new found enthusiasm for perfume. While staying in Grasse, she was greatly impressed by the profusion of fragrant multi-coloured flora that filled this area of Provence, around the Mediterranean sea. Bored with the exotic perfumes that she was importing from the East at great cost, she chose Signor Tombarelli, a native of Florence who was a member of her entourage and perfumer by trade, to create a workshop in Grasse where he could make delicate essential oils from the local flowers.
