When it comes to anti-aging, don’t forget to treat the skin below your face—and nothing beats a good, moisturizing body oil. This simple blend combines three light, penetrating oils that can be found in most grocery stores: avocado oil, virgin coconut oil, and sweet almond oil. Look for virgin or cold-pressed oils; they contain a larger portion of beneficial components like antioxidants and fatty acids.
¼ cup avocado oil
¼ cup sweet almond oil
¼ cup virgin coconut oil, melted
1. Combine the oils in a 6 to 8-ounce bottle and shake well.
2. Apply from shoulders to toes daily. It also makes an excellent massage oil.
