Body oils with valuable plant oils naturally pamper your skin. Discover in this article the benefits body oils offer and find out which oil is perfect for your individual needs.
Are you wondering which body oil suits you?
Choose an oil that suits your current needs. Depending on the scent and active ingredients, a body oil can be relaxing and balancing, but also stimulating and energizing.
Body oils with powerful active ingredients from facial care
In the world of body care, the motto is increasingly: "Treat your body like your face." Or in other words: Optimize your body care with the best ingredients from your facial care. For a long time, high-quality and innovative active ingredients were mainly used in facial care. But why shouldn't your body skin also benefit from these ingredients? Nowadays, many body care products, including lavera Beauty body oil, are enriched with protective, collagen-stimulating, and skin-firming active ingredients.
Bakuchiol
The gentle alternative to retinol is a natural powerhouse ingredient. Bakuchiol supports the development of the skin's own collagen system and is especially well tolerated. Additionally, it helps to even out skin tone.
Plant-based squalane
Can naturally protect your skin from moisture loss. It absorbs quickly and helps keep your skin elastic and smooth
This is how a body oil works on your skin
Plant oils help moisture and water to bead on the skin’s surface, better protecting the skin from drying out. Their valuable ingredients, such as vitamins, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids, benefit your skin in many ways. Additionally, regular massaging with rich plant oils can improve skin elasticity and make the skin smooth and soft.
The right oil for every care need
Each plant oil has important beauty properties due to its special nutrient composition that can have a positive effect on the skin. Natural plant oils are rich in vitamins and antioxidants that can nourish the skin and protect it from harmful environmental influences. Antioxidants help neutralize free radicals that can damage skin cells. For oily skin, light, non-greasy oils such as Inca nut oil, which is contained in the lavera Beauty Body Oil, are suitable.
These plant oils are well suited as body oils
Organic sunflower oil
This oil is very popular in Natural Beauty because it is also suitable for sensitive and delicate skin. The oil can improve your skin's moisture and gives your skin an extra dose of care.
Organic soy oil
The gentle skincare oil is a true all-rounder and one of the most valuable oils in skincare. It has a soothing effect and preserves your skin's moisture. The fast-absorbing oil contains many vitamins (e.g., vitamin E), minerals, fatty acids, and sterols.
Shea oil
The pale yellow to golden oil is rich in oleic and stearic acid. It spreads quickly and is excellently absorbed by your skin. This ensures a smooth skin feeling. Shea oil improves your skin's elasticity and protects it from drying out.
Incanuss Oil
The fast-absorbing Incanut oil is very well suited for the care of inflamed as well as dry and mature skin. The contained α-linolenic acid has a strong cell-regenerating and activating effect. Thus, the oil can increase skin elasticity. In addition, it provides your skin with valuable moisture and strengthens the skin's balance.
Which oils absorb quickly?
High-quality plant oils such as organic almond oil and shea oil are quickly absorbed by the skin. These oils are generally effortlessly taken up by the skin, especially when applied to damp skin. They have a light texture, are non-comedogenic (i.e., they do not clog pores), and do not leave an unpleasant greasy film on the skin.
The best body oils for dry skin
Especially for dry skin, a pampering and deeply nourishing body oil can complement your beauty routine as an additional care step. When buying your body oil, make sure it contains many high-quality and skin-replenishing plant oils.
A true classic for dry skin is organic almond oil. It is one of the most valuable oils in skincare. With its nourishing and moisture-retaining properties, it can increase your skin’s resilience. In addition, the mild oil is generally very well tolerated by sensitive skin. Other recommended oils for dry skin are Abyssinian oil (rich in unsaturated fatty acids), organic sunflower oil (also well tolerated by sensitive skin), and organic soybean oil.
Which body oil for mature skin?
Mature skin requires special attention because it often becomes drier and thinner with age and loses elasticity. For this skin type, intensely nourishing body oils are just right. Pamper your skin with a body oil for mature skin that is rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids. With a good body oil, you can counteract natural skin aging and reduce its signs.
Valuable shea oil, for example, provides mature skin with intensive care, protects it from drying out, and makes it supple. It prevents moisture loss and improves elasticity. Valuable organic Inca nut oil also nourishes mature skin particularly well. It can also contribute to increased elasticity and thus a radiant and healthy-looking complexion. The α-linolenic acid it contains has cell-activating and regenerating effects.
