This formula is a lightweight sesame seed oil formula. Sesame seed oil will help with collagen production. Collagen works well to keep your skin elastic and will give you fresh, young-looking skin. Our skins collagen decreases as we age so we need to bring it back through skincare products. Collagen also helps repair any skin damage you might have
Sesame seed oil will also benefit you if you are looking for an antiaging solution. The oil contains an antioxidant called sesamol, this helps to improve and even prevent the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines you might have.
The oil has high levels of vitamin e. Vitamin e is known for its many skin boosting properties.

This product is moisturising enough to be used even in the colder months when your skin takes the most damage from the cold temperatures. In the colder months, and especially in winter, the humidity levels drop, the air becomes drier and as a result, the moisture from our skin evaporates quickly. This oil can be used even if there is little humidity outside
Variety of uses.
I love a product that can be used for more than one use. This oil can be used to moisturise your cuticles if they are dry or damaged. Simply rubbing the oil on your cuticles will greatly improve their appearance. You can also use this oil when you’re shaving. Swap your shaving cream out for this oil and you’ll have silky smooth moisturised legs after shaving

The scent of this product is a lovely light sesame seed scent. It contains fragrance which gives it this scent. If you prefer a product that is fragrance free then there is an alternative. The fragrance free alternativee can be used by people with sensitive skin and it won’t cause irritation.

- Use this product after a shower when you’re fresh and clean
- While your skin is damp apply some drops of the oil, this will help seal in the moisture on your skin
- Let the product air dry into your skin
Tip: This can be used as an addition to your bathwater or it can be used after a shower or bath on damp skin to lock in moisture.
Conclusion
This is a much-loved product that will eliminate any dry skin issues you have. It is multi-use, you can use it in the bath, while shaving or after a bath or shower to give you silky smooth moisturised skin. I also love that it isn’t greasy, it won’t leave any residue on your skin after use. If you’ve never used a body oil then this will be a great first body oil to try.
Don’t worry about the product being an oil. I was also sceptical about oils on the skin before I started using them myself and they do wonders for my skin and others skin as well. Its will especially be effective for a drier area such as elbows, knees and feet.
