Body oil: moisturizing or nourishing?
Unlike the various organic and natural body creams, body oil does not contain an aqueous and moisturizing phase in its formulation. Indeed, it is only composed of an oily phase, itself made up of a synergy of vegetable oils.
Oils nourish, they don't moisturize. Therefore, to say that a body oil moisturizes would be an abuse of language.
However, although the oils are not hydrating, they still act indirectly on the hydration of the epidermis. By forming a protective barrier on the surface of the skin, the oil slows down the natural process of evaporation. As a result, the epidermis dehydrates less quickly, it stays hydrated longer. Body oils therefore do not moisturize, but they prevent and slow down dehydration.
In addition, whether your treatment is moisturizing or nourishing, the most important thing is the result it brings to the skin, in particular comfort and softness. We reassure you, body oils provide everything you need, just as well as a purely moisturizing treatment!
Can an organic body oil be applied to face and hair?
Although part of our selection of natural body care, can body oil be used differently? Yes, but under certain conditions.
To be applied to the face, a natural body oil must be as close as possible to what you are looking for in a face oil. Avoid glittery or overly thick oils that are not suitable for this use. Do you have blemishes? Choose a non-comedogenic or low-comedogenic oil. You will find within Hevea Cosmétics oils those of hazelnut or sweet almond which can act as nourishing care for the face.
To choose an organic body oil that can also be applied to hair, there are fewer criteria to take into account. They only depend on the nature of your hair. If you have fine hair, opt for a dry oil like Nominoe. Do you have thick hair? Hévea argan oil will be perfect for you! Even better: the Made in France brand La Canopée offers oils specifically made for the body and hair. L'Amandier protects and nourishes the skin and the hair in depth. On the other side, Huile de Iles, glittery, illuminates your skin and your hair in the blink of an eye. Thanks to these 2-in-1 treatments, be sure to make the right choice!
Dry, glittery, scented, firming oil... there's something for everyone
In addition to their nourishing action, natural body oils have other properties that guide our preferences. More or less fine, with a gourmet fragrance, sparkling, firming... there is bound to be one made for you.
Not a fan of oils that are too nourishing and sticky? You will love dry oils. As their name suggests, they have a completely dry finish on the skin without the need to massage it too long. We love those of Whamisa and Nominoe which come in the form of an ultra practical spray. However, be careful with very dry skin. With a remarkably fine texture, these treatments do not intensely nourish the skin and will therefore not be sufficient.
A luminous skin like a goddess makes you dream? Look no further, glitter body oils are made for you. Ideal for sunny days and special occasions, their pearlescent pearl reflects light perfectly, leaving your skin looking smooth and radiant. Among our favorites, you will find Siempre Viva Illuminating Oil from Nini Organics. Dazzling!
Beyond the comfort and suppleness they provide, some body oils respond to other concerns such as lack of firmness. Thanks to their invigorating ingredients, Infusion Vert oils from Madara Cosmétics brand revitalize, tone and firm the body.
