A nurturing ritual that you should ideally indulge in beyond Advent as well. Massage in body oil thoroughly after your evening shower. You can also try it in the morning, as most nourishing oils don’t leave a greasy finish.

How do I apply body oil?

It really is this simple. When you get out of the shower or bath, rub a generous amount of body oil on still wet skin. Why shouldn’t you dry yourself first? The purpose is to lock the moisture into the skin. Applying it to dry skin would leave you feeling greasy and you’d want to throw the oil straight in the bin. And that would be a shame. Enjoy a gentle full body massage and feel free to ask for help. We don’t think your partner will say no. 

Plus it isn’t a ritual that needs to be repeated daily. It would be great if you used body lotion at least. For extra-dry skin try applying body oil over your moisturising lotion. This kind of treatment is ideal at least once a week in winter.
