Summer Shimmery Body Oil

In this post, I am going to be sharing my Summer Bronzing Body Oil Formula. This formula was made out of an experiment working with Thickening Clay. This formula makes the skin appear tanner. If you are a darker complexion you can do a couple of different things. You can increase the pigment, or you can change the mica to something more bronze.

Antioxidant Rich Body Oil Formula

In this post, we are going to be making a simple, but effective body oil perfect for Summer. After reading the profile on Formulator Sample Shop of Raspberry Seed Oil and seeing that it is had lots of omega fatty acids and high in tocopherol. I thought it would be great to add to a body oil. If you did not know antioxidants help sunscreen work better. So adding them in any form is great! Even applying a light oil and let it sink in completely, you will notice that your sunscreen applies better. Especially sunscreens that have a dry down to a powdery finish.
