During the dry Winter months, your body has to work extra hard to retain moisture. Using a nutritive Body Oil after showering or bathing can help to lock in your skin’s moisture. This light, penetrating, Body Oil recipe is made with Organic Ingredients, but you can substitute conventional ingredients as needed. Apply the oil directly to the body, gently massaging into the skin.
Organic Body Oil
Ingredients
2 ounces Organic Camellia Oil
1/2 ounce Organic Hemp Seed Oil
1/2 ounce Organic Natural Jojoba Oil
1/2 ounce Organic Argan Oil
1/2 Ounce Organic Grape Seed Oil
10 – 25 drops Organic Lavandula Abrialis Essential Oil (optional)
10 – 25 drops Organic Ylang Ylang Essential Oil (optional) 
The natural oils in the recipe are all organic and this is interesting to me.
Thank you for your information. I will have to try this at home. 🙂

I’m glad you like the Organic Body Oil recipe. I hope that you enjoy the oil when you make it at home. Please let me know how it works out for you!
Is this oil thin enough to be sprayed out of a 4oz bottle easily, or should a different bottle be used? I’d like to be able to keep it in the shower (or right near it) to spray after I’m done. I’ve found that to be the time that I actually remember to do any moisturizing!
This oil may not be easy to use in a spray bottle as it can clog the sprayer, but you can certainly use a turret style cap to dispense the oil in the shower.
Has anyone every used Camellia oil for kerotosis pilaris? Thank you, Donna
Hi Donna. Camellia is often used to treat a range of dry skin conditions, so it could be worth trying with mild keretosis pilaris, but I would recommend consulting a dermatologist or homeopath for the best recommendations.
What’s a good substitution for the Hemp Oil?
Hi Lisa,
You can replace the Hemp Seed Oil in this recipe with pretty much any Carrier Oil that you like. I would suggest picking an oil that is also light in texture with anti-inflammatory properties. You could substitute the oil with 1/2 ounce more of Camellia Seed Oil, Argan Oil, Red Raspberry Seed Oil, Rose Hip Seed Oil, or any other that you like.
