Our Top 5 Body Oil Beauty Hacks
Deep moisture is only a few pumps away with our line of nourishing body oils. Not only do they have aromas that’ll knock your socks off, their therapeutic benefits are endless. Daily use of our body oil can help smooth, tighten and tone the skin.
Beyond skin care, body oils can help get you out of a sticky situation and make the most of your manicure. You might be surprised how often you’ll be reaching for your favorite bottle after reading our Body Oil Beauty Hacks.
Hack #1: Makeup Brush Cleaner - Tons of icky stuff can get caught in makeup brushes over time. Every month, make a habit of refreshing your brushes by combining 2 tbsp of Lavender Magnolia body oil and 2 tbsp of pure lemon juice. Simply massage the mixture in your brushes and rinse with warm water. Place on a clean towel to dry. You’ll be impressed with how soft your brushes feel.
Hack #2: Frizz Control - If your locks are making you look like a mad scientist, it might be time to tame that frizz. Rub a dime-sized amount of Shine body oil and 1 drop of Rosemary essential oil into your palms and smooth on from mid-length to your ends. If you’re worried about oily hair, body oil can actually help prevent greasiness when used regularly.
Hack #3: Chest Balm - Flu season seems to be in overdrive this year but never fear, our body oils can help! If you’re feeling congested and need to open up the airways, combine 2 tbsp Good Night body oil, 2 drops Eucalyptus essential oil, 1 drop Peppermint essential oil and gently massage into your chest before bedtime.
Hack #4: Cuticle Care - If you’re tired of cracked nails and cuticles, body oils might be the perfect fix. With natural ingredients like vitamin E and Camellia Seed, our body oils can help strengthen and heal your nails. Before you go to sleep, blend Vanilla Sandalwood body oil with 1 drop of Frankincense essential oil and apply to the base of your nails.
Hack #5: Get Gum Out Of Hair - If you haven’t experienced the agony of getting gum stuck in your hair, consider yourself one of the lucky ones. For the rest of us, body oil can help slick that stickiness right out. Combine 1 tbsp Lemon Ginger body oil and 5 drops Pine essential oil. Apply a copious amount of oil to the hair and gum, pulling the oil through your hair until the gum loosens from your hair. May require more oil.
