First-class body oils from Slovakia. Which of us would not love skin that feels soft and youthful? Too much sun, age, genetics and all sorts of other things shape the way our skin looks, and so we reach for various body lotions and butters. Yet there is something that can bring your skin so much more - body oils, brimming with lovely benefits. Using body oils is nothing new, though many women are put off by the idea of a greasy feeling on the skin. In fact, it is quite the opposite. Even the beautiful Cleopatra used body oils and knew their soothing, moisturising and renewing touch. So let us look at why it is worth reaching for them.
Natural body oils and their benefits
Body oils have many benefits that make them well worth using. One of the main reasons to try body oils is the way they support the skin's own collagen and so help keep it supple, softening the look of stretch marks and fine lines. Rosehip oil, for instance, is lovely not only in facial care but for the skin of the whole body, because it softens and smooths it, is traditionally valued for calming the skin and can gently soften the look of scars. And that is only a fraction of what a single oil can do. So why not try first-class body oils blended so that your skin simply glows?

First-class body oils are made in Slovakia too, blending exceptional oils for healthy, youthful-looking skin. Elixír Bohyňa with Q10 is made for every woman who carries a little goddess within and loves to care for her skin. Alongside cleavers oil, known for its firming and rejuvenating touch, it contains coenzyme Q10, valued for its anti-age effect, and squalane, which helps keep the skin hydrated. This multifunctional natural body oil softens the look of wrinkles and supports the skin's suppleness. Another multifunctional dry oil is Slovenka, with a beautiful linden scent and a wonderful composition. Besides the squalane mentioned above, which keeps the skin soft, helps prevent moisture loss and improves suppleness, it also contains sea buckthorn extract. What makes sea buckthorn so special in combination with squalane? It has a strong anti-age effect that works against the signs of ageing, supports the skin's renewal and has a calming, soothing touch. The cherry on top is its beautiful linden fragrance. Into the top three we could also place the Božské telo oil, because the name alone tells you this is a piece no woman's collection should be without. A blend of coffee, grapefruit and chilli oils creates a truly lovely anti-cellulite massage oil made purely from natural ingredients. With regular use you will feel smoother, firmer skin in the areas that trouble you. It is an exceptional blend of natural oils for the feeling of a divine body. It is certainly worth trying.
Body oil helps with hair and nail care too
A natural body oil is a wonderful helper in caring for your crowning glory - your hair. It works intensively to renew dry and damaged hair, bringing back its lost shine and bounce. Regular use of oils supports a healthy scalp and helps hair feel stronger. Argan oil contains plenty of vitamin E, omega 3 and 9 fatty acids and antioxidants, which can do wonderful things for damaged, dry, coarse or otherwise unruly hair. Jojoba oil, in turn, mimics the natural sebum produced by our scalp. It nourishes the hair and hair follicles and supports the look of healthy hair growth. The oil is traditionally valued for helping to keep the scalp feeling clean and balanced. It also helps to lift away dead skin cells, flakes and other impurities, leaving the scalp clean and beautifully hydrated. It is a lovely oil for supporting nail growth as well, and it cares for the skin around them.

If you would like to use a natural oil on your hair, add it to shampoos, hair conditioners and hair serums. You can massage it regularly into the ends of your hair, or use it as a wrap. It is lovely to work it into the scalp with gentle circular movements. You will get the best effect if you warm the oil and let it rest on the hair for a few hours. Body oils are a beautiful part of caring for the whole body. Once regular use becomes your little ritual, you will come to see natural body oils as a small wonder.
