When to Use Bath Oil?

Bath oils offer a luxurious way to moisturize and enhance your bathing experience. They can be used at different stages of your showering or bathing routine, depending on your preference and skin type.

• For extremely dry or irritated skin, apply a small amount of bath oil directly to your skin before showering. Gently massage it in to help soothe and hydrate. This pre-shower application allows the oil to penetrate while your skin is dry and allows the moisture to be sealed in by the shower.

During Your Shower or Bath:

• Add bath oil directly to your running bathwater. This creates a fragrant and moisturizing bath experience. Make sure to add it before the water is fully running to give it time to emulsify. Be cautious of slippery surfaces!

After Your Shower or Bath:

• Apply a small amount of bath oil to damp skin after showering or bathing. This helps to seal in moisture, leaving your skin feeling soft and hydrated. This method is particularly beneficial for those who don't have a bathtub but still want the moisturizing benefits.

Choosing the Right Time:

The optimal time to use bath oil depends on your individual needs and the type of oil you’re using. Some oils are better suited for use in the bath, while others may work better as a post-shower moisturizer. Always follow the specific instructions on your chosen bath oil product.

• Dry Skin: Applying bath oil before or after showering is particularly beneficial for those with dry skin.

• Sensitive Skin: Using a bath oil with calming and soothing properties can provide additional relief for sensitive skin.
