What Does This Oil Do?
Balancing Body Oil is designed to hydrate, soften and condition the skin while helping to restore a comfortable, balanced feel.
Body oils work by coating the skin with nourishing lipids that help reduce moisture loss and keep the skin feeling soft and supple. Our formula is particularly lovely applied to slightly damp skin after bathing or showering, helping to seal in that freshly applied moisture.
Olive oil provides a rich source of skin-conditioning fatty acids, vitamin E and naturally occurring antioxidants. Sweet orange adds a bright, refreshing botanical element, while vanilla extract helps leave the skin feeling conditioned and smooth.
Used regularly, the oil can help dry and dehydrated skin feel more comfortable and look smoother, softer and more radiant.
It is also wonderfully versatile. Use it as part of your everyday body-care routine, after shaving or exfoliating, in a warm bath, or as a nourishing massage oil.
What Does It Look & Smell Like?
The Appearance | a beautiful, naturally coloured botanical oil with a silky, lightweight texture. It spreads easily across the skin and absorbs quickly, leaving your skin feeling nourished and soft rather than coated or greasy.
Because our formula is made with natural botanical ingredients, its colour and appearance may vary slightly from batch to batch, a natural characteristic we love.
The scent | an uplifting blend of sweet, orange and rich, warming vanilla. The bright citrus notes bring freshness and energy, while vanilla adds a soft, comforting sweetness. Together they create a scent that feels fresh, warm and inviting - perfect for starting the day with a little boost or winding down with a relaxing evening ritual.
Skin Types
Balancing Body Oil is suitable for all skin types, including dry, dehydrated and sensitive skin.
It is particularly beneficial for skin that feels dry, tight, rough or flaky, and makes a lovely addition to a body-care routine when your skin needs extra nourishment and comfort.
Regular massage with a nourishing body oil can also help keep skin feeling supple and conditioned, making it particularly useful on areas where the skin is prone to dryness or tightness.
If you have very sensitive or reactive skin, we recommend performing a patch test before first use.
Usage Instructions | As a Body Oil
Shake well before use. Warm a small amount between your palms and massage gently into clean, slightly damp skin after bathing or showering.
Pay particular attention to areas that tend to become dry, such as the elbows, knees, arms, legs and heels.
Allow a few minutes for the oil to absorb before getting dressed.
Usage Instructions | After Shaving or Exfoliating
Apply a small amount to freshly shaved or exfoliated skin and gently massage in.
The oil provides moisturising and conditioning care that can help leave skin feeling soft and comfortable when it feels dry or tight after shaving or exfoliation.
Avoid applying to broken or damaged skin.
Usage Instructions | As a Bath Oil
Run a warm bath.
Add a small amount of body oil to the running water.
Swirl the water gently to disperse the oil.
Step carefully into the bath, as oils may make the bath surface slippery.
Enjoy a relaxing soak.
Usage Instructions | As a Massage Oil
Apply a generous amount to the body and massage using smooth, flowing movements. The silky texture allows the oil to glide comfortably across the skin while providing rich moisturising care.
The overall fragrance is calming, balanced and uplifting, making the oil particularly enjoyable as part of an evening bath, massage or bedtime self-care ritual.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Balancing Body Oil suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. The formula is made with a small number of carefully selected botanical ingredients and is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. However, everyone's skin is different, so we recommend patch testing before first use, particularly if you have very sensitive or reactive skin.
Will it leave my skin greasy?
Balancing Body Oil has a lightweight texture and is designed to absorb readily into the skin. Applying it to slightly damp skin after bathing or showering helps it spread easily and leaves skin feeling nourished without an overly greasy finish.
Can I use it every day?
Absolutely. It is designed as an everyday body-care oil and can be used whenever your skin needs additional moisture and nourishment.
Can I use it on my face?
This product has been formulated specifically as a body oil, so we recommend using it on the body rather than the face.
Can I use it after shaving?
Yes. A small amount can be massaged into the skin after shaving to help replenish moisture and leave the skin feeling soft and comfortable. If your skin is particularly sensitive after shaving, allow any irritation to settle first.
Can I use it during pregnancy?
The formula contains sweet orange essential oil. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding and are unsure whether an essential-oil-containing product is suitable for you, we recommend discussing its use with your midwife, doctor or other healthcare professional.
Is Balancing Body Oil vegan?
Yes. Balancing Body Oil is made using plant-based ingredients and is vegan.
Is it organic?
The body oil is made from 100% certified organically produced ingredients.
Why might the colour or scent vary slightly?
Our formula is made with natural botanical ingredients rather than synthetic ingredients designed to create exactly the same appearance in every batch. Small variations in colour, clarity or aroma can therefore occur naturally and are a reflection of the ingredients we use.
How should I store my body oil?
Keep the bottle tightly closed and store it somewhere cool and dry, away from direct sunlight and excessive heat. This will help preserve the quality of the botanical oils.
