Make Your Own Body Oil
The Rosehip Oil Serum is a very concentrated blend of vitamins and essential fatty acids. A few drops are enough to moisturize your face and infuse all the benefits. To bring these vitamins to the larger surface of your body, we’ve developed a simple recipe to create your own body oil. You can make it on your own or invite a little one to help!
What do you need?
-
A small jar and a stirring spoon
-
One or more carrier oils such as sweet almond, jojoba, argan, ...
-
Rosehip Oil Serum
-
Optionally: essential oils of choice
Step 1
Choose one or more carrier oils. We went for sweet almond oil because of its versatility, richness in mineral salts and jojoba because it fits all skin types and has a very interesting texture.
Tip: prefer organic oils and check the ingredient list to see whether the oil is 100% pure and not refined.
A bit of inspiration on carrier oils:
-
Avocado oil is softening, protecting and perfect for dry skin
-
Castor oil strengthens nails and boosts dry and devitalized hair
-
Argan oil is regenerating and anti-aging
-
Prickly pear oil for a luxurious shot of vitamin E
-
Macadamia oil to relieve redness, scars and wounds
Step 2
Blend your carrier oils.
Tip: No need to measure, tune in to your intuition to make the mixture.
Step 3
Carefully add drops of Rosehip Oil Serum. For a quantity of about 30 ml of body oil we’ve added 20 drops of glowy Serum drops.
Tip: stir once in a while and see how the colour and smell of your mixture is changing while you keep adding drops.
Step 4
If you would like to incorporate a smell or a special property, dive into the world of essential oils! We’ve used geranium and rose wood for a foresty, yet upbeat smell.
Tip: it’s recommended to avoid essential oils when pregnant
