How to Use Body Oil

Body oil is a great way to keep the body moisturized. People with really dry skin may not benefit from using lotions and they may need something a lot more stronger. Body will moisturize and keep your body soft and silky for hours after normal lotions stop working.

• Use body oil in your bath water. Body oil comes in many different types of smells. You can apply this directly to your water for a smooth and silky bath.

• Apply the body oil to your washcloth. If you are taking a shower, you can still use body oil. Take your washcloth and apply the oil to your cloth. Wipe over your body with the cloth to moisturize it. Using a cloth will prevent oil spills and from applying too much on your body. It is always best to apply body oil to moist skin because most body oils do not contain any water.

• Use body oil as you would as lotion. If you are in need of being moisturized during the day. Apply it directly to areas of the skin that have become a little dry.

• Use body oil for a massage. There are great body oils that work perfect to massage the skin. You can purchase body oils that warm up on contact. These oils are great for penetrating body massages.

• Apply body oil to your feet. Most people think twice about applying oil to their feet to avoid slipping. But there is a right way to use body oil on your feet and that is after showering and drying your feet off. Apply a liberal amount of oil to your washcloth and wipe your feet down in oil. Put socks on your feet and sleep in them over night. This will allow the oil to moisturize your feet.
