Balances Oily Skin
Balances Oily Skin
One question we often hear is “I have oily skin, shouldn’t I stay away from putting more oil on my skin?” Actually, oily skin benefits greatly from our oils as it protects skin from free radical damage. Also, numerous and important Omega 5 and other essential fatty acids that the body does not produce on its own will fortify and repair the skin’s natural protective lipid barrier, preventing skin dehydration and loss of epidermal water. Oily skin still gets dehydrated, so using our oil blend will be the number one defense in eliminating this problem. Also, oily skin sometimes is problematic and experiences congestion, or blackheads, and it takes an oil to melt an oil, especially on the nose and the wings of the nose, chin and cheeks. Helps eliminate future breakouts and heals what might have erupted, or is causing inflammation deep in the dermis, or on the surface of the skin by dissolving impacted pore plugs.

Skin-type and Suitable Oils for Massage
Skin-type and Suitable Oils for Massage
Our organic Exotic Oil blend is required to provide slip for a massage that does not pull and stretch skin as you handle it. Oils can nourish and lubricate the skin in a way that other products cannot, as they are more efficiently absorbed and warm the skin to maximize absorption. Although any oil can block the pores of skin that is very fine or if too much is used, our Exotic Oil does not spread a suffocating film over the skin or adversely affect its own oil production. In addition, our Oil contains fatty acids and fat- soluble vitamins. Many are absorbed relatively slowly by the skin, so take effect over time. We use cold-pressed vegetables, nut, fruit, and seed oils.
Certain oils are better suited to certain skin types than others. Broadly speaking, the drier your skin the more it will benefit from oils rich in saturated fatty acids. Our Exotic Oils is a gentle blend that will serve all skins. These are absorbed more slowly and curb water loss more effectively. Oilier skins require oils with a high percentage of polyunsaturated fats, which are thinner and quickly absorbed into the skin. Exotic Oils is blended for all skins, extremely nutritive and moisturizing. An exquisite all-natural essential oil-based restorative moisturizer that nourishes and protects your skin. Penetrates deep into your skin to provide the nutrients and cellular building blocks that enhance your skin’s health while providing a healthful glow and youthful appearance.
Exotic Oils is crafted from 100% natural, first pressed, cold processed, stone pressed ingredients that have never been heated or chemically altered in any way from their original form. The very best documented essential oils in the area of skin regeneration and preservation, including certified organic Helichrysum, Eucalyptus, Neroli, Frankincense, Rose and Vetiver. Additional key ingredients include Sea Buckthorn Berry, Sangre de Drago from the Amazonian rainforest, and Jojoba, Pomegranate, Argan, Olive and Coconut oils.

How does it work?
How does it work?
When you press or squeeze any part of your body, it increases circulation to that area. The face responds particularly well to touch as it is packed with small, sensitive muscle and so richly endowed with endings.
Tension, and to a certain extent age, causes the connective tissue between the layers of the facial skin and the facial muscle to become less supple over time. As a result habitual expressions such as frown lines, rigid jaws, pursed lips and staring eyes tend to become set as part of the fabric of the face. The gentle pressure of a facial massage can loosen up the facial muscle and allow them to learn to slide back into place more readily after being tensed. The cumulative effect is such that with repeated treatment your face will be left looking relaxed, and therefore younger. Also, because massage stimulates circulation to the face, your complexion will be toned and glowing.
The muscles of the face are extremely delicate. Massage can be tremendously beneficial, but if given too deeply or frequently, it can encourage the muscles to lengthen. So the comparative fragility of older muscles and their adjacent tissues are important to bear in mind.
The scalp is a different matter and can be massaged quite vigorously without any harm, with many benefits for the face. Sensitive skin, which is typically fair and dry, should also be massaged with great care. It is more susceptible to the kind of surface damage that causes ‘broken veins’ or couperose (which are not actually broken, but simply closer than usual to the surface, so more visible, and sluggish in constricting action).

A Facial Massage with our signature organic live skin food Exotic Oils is the ultimate anti-aging treatment! When you first get up in the morning your face probably looks paler, puffier, and more creased than usual. You can blame some of the creases on the pillow you slept on, but the lack of color and tone are the result of a nocturnal slow down in circulation.
To hydrate skin and boost the effects of the oils and massaging action, try dampening skin with one of our Professional Botanical Serums first for targeted skin correction of:
* Caps for Rosacea and Broken Capillaries
* Eye for Eyes, Acne and Inflammation
* Nrich for Dehydration
* Pep for Sluggish Metabolism and Dull Skin
* Soothe for Sensitive Skin
* Xfoliate for Rough Texture
* Xtract for Clogged Pores and Blackheads
* Youth for Anti-Oxidant Free Radical Damage
For absolute optimum results, try polishing your skin first with our Exfoliant so that you are working with deeply cleansed and prepped skin. The results really will be more noticeable.

When the body is in a deep rest it puts the brakes on the systems that pump blood and lymph around the body. At night, when the lymph drainage of toxins form and the tissues slow down, the waste builds up. Puffiness around the face, particularly the eyes, in the morning is just one of the more obvious signs of this; likewise, the relative pallor that follows the nocturnal slow down in blood circulation.
It is not only sleep that slows down circulation. During the day, lack of exercise, poor nutrition, shallow breathing and overexposure to pollution – all hazards of modern living – slow the drainage of lymph and flow of blood.
Facial Massage via exercise jump-starts both. A pinker glow is the obvious testament to improved blood flow. This is why a monthly facial is so beneficial. An acceleration in lymph action is less visible, but you can assume that if your face is a richer color the lymph has also been stimulated, since it vessels run closer to the surface of the skin, a fluid lymph system shows in a resilient immune system and a bright complexion. Half of the lymph nodes in the body are in the neck, so unblocking them has an immediate effect on the facial skin.

You will need face cream, and a bowl of cold water.
Remove your top so you can massage your neck as well, without getting cream all over your clothes.
Wash your hands and cleanse your face.
Sit back on a chair, and apply a generous amount of cream on your face and neck. Massage it gently into your skin.
Take some cold water from the bowl, and apply it to your face as well. You could start from the neck. Lift your chin up and massage your neck using upward strokes.
Then massage the area just under your skin. Use firm strokes. Start from the center, move your hands under your jaw, outwards to the ear. Do this around 20 times or more, depending on how much time you have, and then using small upward strokes, work the entire under-chin area from side to side.
Massage the rest of your face, using upward and outward strokes, and circular motions. Keep reapplying water and cream on your face.
Circle your eyes, pressing down on the temples.
Similarly, use upward and outward strokes on your forehead.
Make a V with two fingers of one hand and put it on your face. Using the index finger of the other hand, massage the skin inside the V area. Move this 'V' all around your face.
Use quick, sharp slapping strokes on your cheeks. 'Slap' yourself for at least 2-3 minutes.
Remember that your entire massage session should consist of upward and outward strokes. Never massage the skin on your face in a downward direction, because your constant endeavour is to fight gravity.
In addition to a face massage, make sure you exercise regularly and drink at least 10 to 12 glasses of water a day.
Some people may develop pimples after a massage. If you develop a few pimples, wait until the pimples go, and use another cream the next time.

FACE MASSAGE
FACE MASSAGE -
There are numerous benefits to a face massage. If you have easy access to an inexpensive parlour, get a regular facial done. Alternatively, here's how you can give yourself a great face massage at home.
Glowing skin
Healthy and glowing skin is one of the most important beauty assets. It doesn't matter how light your skin if it looks sallow and pale. You will only look drawn, tired out and sickly. Most of us concentrate on trying to get our complexions pimple-free, or on lightening our skin. However, just a light, pimple-free complexion does not ensure good looks. Enhancing features with make-up does help, but nothing looks as good as healthy, glowing skin.
Puffiness
Some women have a tendency to develop puffiness on their faces. One of the best ways to counter puffiness is to massage your face regularly.
Wrinkles
Massage stimulates circulation and brings more oxygen to the face. It also stimulates the production of collagen and tightens the skin. It also delays the onset of wrinkles. In addition, wrinkles on the forehead are often caused due to involuntary tightening of the muscles. Massage relaxes the muscles, and delays the formation of forehead wrinkles.
Double chin
Do you have a tendency to get a double chin Even some extremely thin people develop double chins. Regular face massage tightens the loose flesh under the chin so it doesn't hang down.
