Seconding what a previous reviewer mentioned: this series LOVES to be shared, and I love sharing it!! My favorite place to apply it is the lower back, belly and hips. Shoulders are great too for releasing worry. I find that I become more aware of my own natural beauty when wearing this salve, and it’s easier for me to just…let things be. Great medicine for chronic overthinking and worrying.

I have used this both before sleeping and before going out and its effect is beautiful either way: soothing and pleasant. For some reason, I don't entirely love the scent of this salve, even though it has clear, delicate notes of lavender (which I really like). But I wear it despite that, it's just too lovely in its magic not to :)

Beautiful salve that I'm addicted to the smell of! It smells so yummy and invites in rest and relaxation.

.... and I hope there is enough stock for thirds! I made it through my first tin so fast and couldn't wait to get another one! I use this for everything and it improves every single thing it touches.

For sleep: bottoms of the feet, collar bone, belly button.
For a good time with friends: hands, arms, and offer to share -- more than any other I find this series wants to be gifted around and people are thrilled to partake!
for a good time but in bed: anywhere, everywhere?
for a great back massage and headache eraser: back, neck, shoulders, bonus points if the massage is offered by a lover <3
to stop a fight in its tracks: apply this to yourself & to the other! tension dissolves like flipping a switch.

There is no bad day that cannot be soothed away by coming to bed to wrap myself in this goodness and be gently held in sweetness as I drift off.

I’ve been rubbing this into my sore, tired feet after work. I’m melting. I feel so relaxed, and my heart feels softer. It takes me out of the stress of the day and transports me into a space where I can relax and feel good.

On my second use of Exalted Venus, with Venus having just entered Libra, I had the deepest and most intense epic dream which ended with a very deep healing resolution with someone. Couldn't recommend it enough!

I was hesitant to engage with this salve because my relationship with Pisces energy is *weird* in that dreamy, untethered way (which my own fixed-heavy energy finds exhausting.) But I’m glad I did. I already find lavender a very soothing scent, so it immediately calms me on that front alone. But a more subtle, sensory relaxation unfolds within the minutes and hours after application. When I use it at bed time, I tend to have those sleeps where I wake up in the exact position I fell asleep in - no waking or tossing and turning. I’ve also found it excellent for creating a more sensuous mood and tuned-in experience with my partner. So very Venusian and most definitely exalted!

Originally I didn't use this often, but as I've become familiar with this series I've grown more comfortable and drawn to what this is showing me about myself. The salve has been *very* helpful for sleeping recently. Assists in turning off the part of my mind that is always on, helps to tune out and be ok with doing so. For me, this series is still about self worth and it does feel like I am incorporating it into myself as I use the different items from the series. Smells like lavender and something else, but doesn't trigger anything undesirable with being prone to headaches.

This salve feels sooo sensuous. I feel incredibly relaxed whenever I apply, and cocooned in comfy Venusian energy.

Great for relaxing and unwinding before going to bed.... no matter what you plan to do there. This is so sweet and cute and just snuggly when used solo, and great for the kind of dreamless sleep that makes you wake up refreshed. Applied before more romantic encounters, it is mind-blowing. The oceanic, overwhelming (in the best way) quality of Venus in her Exalted sign really show off during any kind of shared physical pleasure. Like MDMA without the come down or artificial emotions.
