Natural Facial and Body Oils With a Difference

December 2nd, 2008 by Rossella Frigerio

As much as water-based body creams and moisturizers are beneficial to our skins, come winter, it’s all about the oils. And if you fear feeling like a human oil slick, simply remember that less is more: before stepping out of the shower, dab a few drops of oil onto your body, and then just lightly dab yourself with a towel. The water on your body will help disperse the oil and lock in the moisture, leaving your skin deliciously soft. The same rule of course applies to facial oils. Wipe your face with a warm towel, put a few drops of oil onto your fingertips, and lightly massage your face. We’ve handpicked our favourite natural oil-based products that would be ideal both as a treat for yourself, or as unique little stocking-fillers this Christmas.

Abahna Frangipani and Sweet Orange Body Oil Spray (above): This organic product is packed with plenty of glorious emollient and protective ingredients that include carrot extract, coconut, and sweet almond oils. This lush oil also contains Monoi, the extract from the exotic Tiare flower from Tahiti, which is the secret behind the satin locks and glowing skin of Tahitian women. Available from the exquisite Mayfair-based e-boutique, Kuati.
