The Uplifting Body Oil

Radish Extract

Radish seed extract is a plant oil rich in unsaturated fatty acids including oleic and linoleic, but erucic and palmitic as well. Together these acids replenish the skin, helping to strengthen its surface and barrier against TEWL. Radish is known for soothing and protecting skins that have been sensitised, whether from sun exposure, irritation or dryness. 

Lemon Myrtle Essential Oil

Lemon myrtle’s aromatherapeutic uses include uplifting mood, reducing stress and anxiety, and helping to create a calming environment that promotes relaxation. In Ayurveda it is used to uplift and purify sluggish Kapha doshas.

Calendula Extract

Extracts of calendula, the pot marigold, have been used for millennia for their anti-inflammatory, skin soothing properties. Modern research has verified this activity and shown triterpenoids to be the origin of calendula’s anti-inflammatory power.

Virgin Coconut Oil

Rich in fatty acids, this intensive moisturiser helps to enhance the skin’s barrier function, ensuring that critical hydration and actives are held on and in the skin where they are needed especially during the skin’s active nighttime periods of self-repair that occur during sleep.

Use before bathing for a light self-massage, working towards the heart with quick, gentle strokes.

Add a few drops to bathwater as a sensorial, stimulating bath oil.

After bath or shower, instead of lotion, smooth a couple of drops onto damp skin in light, sweeping circular movements toward the heart.
