What oil is best absorbed by the skin?
Oils with a consistency similar to our skin’s own natural sebum are absorbed more efficiently than heavy or greasy oils such as coconut oil. Light oils such as grapeseed oil are best absorbed by the skin.
Should body oil be applied to wet or dry skin?
Body oil can be applied on both wet and dry skin and still be effective, but body and massage oils can be the most moisturizing when applied to damp skin. Applying body oil on damp skin can help lock in moisture, leaving your skin refreshed and glowing all day long. For best results, shower with Cleanse Intimate Skin Foaming Wash and apply Relax Massage & Body Oil before drying off.
Is the Relax Body & Massage Oil safe for intimate areas?
Relax Body & Massage Oil is safe for intimate areas, including the vagina. Intentionally created with ingredients that can truly be used anywhere, Relax Body & Massage Oil is safe for use during sex.
Can massage oil be used with condoms and silicone sex toys?
While Relax Body and Massage Oil is safe for intimate areas, they are not compatible with condoms or silicone sex toys. Similar oils likely come with the same use guidance.
Any oil-based products such as Relax Body and Massage Oil, Luxe Arousal Oil, Luxe Massage Oil Nourish Intimate Skin Moisturizer, and Desire Sensual Pleasure Oil, should be kept away from latex and silicone for numerous reasons.
- Condom failure: Oil-based products have the potential to weaken or degrade latex or other condom material. Degradation effectively renders the condom useless and can lead to unwanted pregnancy or STI transfer.
- Unsafe sex toys: Similarly, oil-based products can degrade even high-quality silicone. This degradation can leave an uneven surface that creates a perfect breeding ground for bacteria. Additionally, your silicone sex toys may not last as long or feel as smooth if used with oil-based intimacy products.
Water-based products such as our Luxe Arousal Serum and Smooth Water-Based Personal Lubricant are compatible with latex condoms and silicone sex toys. You can safely enjoy most water-based products with silicone sex toys while preserving the longevity of the material and protecting yourself from harbored bacteria.
For the best body massage oil that doubles as an addition to your daily skincare regimen, don’t sleep on Relax Massage & Body Oil. Sleep after though, because that lavender aroma will take relaxation to a whole new level.
