Body oils are often only thought about as mediums for massage but there are so many benefits to using them on the skin more habitually.
The physical action of massaging oil into your skin and joints can help to alleviate stiffness, loosen up muscles and improve circulation, boosting energy and overall health. Suitable for all skin types, oil will attract to the skins natural oil secretion, to balance an overactive oily skin and will penetrate more deeply beyond the first layer of skin, not only making the skin super soft and helping to retain moisture, particularly for drier skins, but can also help to reduce the appearance of scars and give the whole body a glow.
