lightweight luxe body and hair oil (d.i.y.)

i’m a firm believer that you can d.i.y. beauty products for results that rival high-end quality products.  this d.i.y. is a perfect example of that — simple, stunning, body and hair care magic right here.

this is a very lightweight body AND hair oil, made with fatty and hydrating, yet extremely fast-absorbing oils. the recipe is intended for a 3 ounce bottle, but can be tailored to any amount you desire.

3 base ingredients. 10 minutes of your time. silky smooth skin and hair to follow.

this blend is exactly what’s currently in my bathroom for my post-shower body oil. i’ve added rose, jasmine, and lavender EOs for a soft floral scent that lingers for hours.

while this oil is intended for use post-shower on wet skin, it will still absorb quickly into dry skin.

keep in mind that buying in bulk can be cheaper, and you can make more body/hair oil, or anything else you want with what’s leftover. this recipe is definitely on the splurge end, but is cheaper than buying a really nice quality body oil over time, and you can control precisely what’s in it.

what you need:

• 100 mL pump bottle
• organic chia seed oil
• chia seed co2 extract
• marula oil

how-to (my favorite blend):

• 1.5 ounces chia seed co2 extract
• 1 ounce marula oil
• 0.5 ounce chia seed oil
• 10-15 drops EOs, as desired

how-to (saves a little money):

• 1.5 ounces chia seed oil
• 1 ounce chia seed co2 extract
• 0.5 ounce marula oil
• 10-15 drops EOs, as desired

where to purchase (no affiliates whatsoever – just what i use):

• 100 mL Infinity Jar bottles – reuseable; blocks almost all light to prevent oil degradation
• organic chia seed oil – food grade; please keep excess in your fridge
• organic chia seed co2 extract – supercritical extract of chia seeds, rather than cold-pressed
• marula oil
