🌿 Caribbean Soft Candle

A Traditional Island Remedy for Drawing, Soothing & Skin Support

Caribbean Soft Candle is a classic Caribbean household remedy passed down through generations. Traditionally used as a warm poultice to help draw out impurities, soothe swollen or tender areas, and support the natural healing of the skin, this soft wax blend remains a beloved staple in many island homes.

Its warm, pliable texture makes it easy to apply externally over areas of concern, especially for boils, swelling, tight muscles, and minor discomforts.

🧿 Island Roots Herbalist Note

Soft Candle is one of the most nostalgic remedies in the Caribbean — something our grandmothers trusted and always kept in the home.
While many customers still use it for boils, swelling, and muscle tension, it is important to use it safely and never too hot.

I recommend pairing it with:

• Golden Myrrh – for external cleansing
• Infection Mix – for immune support
• Coco Lay Oil – for additional soothing and circulation

Use gently, and always let the warmth do the work.
