Our Organic Hydrating Mandarin Body Oil Ingredients

Mandarin essential oil is one of the star ingredients in our organic moisturising body oil. 

Citrus Body Oil

Mandarin oil is derived from the mandarin fruit, which is a citrus fruit similar to an orange. It has a sweet and tangy aroma that is uplifting and refreshing and is commonly used in aromatherapy for its calming and relaxing effects. However, mandarin oil also has numerous benefits when applied topically to the skin, especially dry skin.

Mandarin oil has natural antiseptic and antibacterial properties that help prevent infections and heal wounds. It also has a high concentration of antioxidants that help protect the skin from environmental stressors such as UV radiation, pollution, and toxins. The antioxidants in mandarin oil neutralise free radicals, which are unstable molecules that can cause damage to the skin cells and accelerate the ageing process.

It is also rich in vitamin C, which is a potent antioxidant that helps brighten the skin, fade dark spots, and even out skin tone. Vitamin C also stimulates collagen production, which improves skin elasticity and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, making it great for improving skin texture and appearance.

In addition to its vitamin C content, mandarin oil contains lots of limonene, which is a natural compound that has anti-inflammatory properties. This makes mandarin oil an excellent ingredient for people with dry, irritated, or sensitive skin as it can help reduce redness, swelling, inflammation, and soothe the skin.

There are high concentrations of carotenoids present in Mandarin oil, which are pigments that give fruits and vegetables their vibrant colours. Carotenoids are known to protect the skin from UV radiation and improve skin health by reducing inflammation, increasing hydration, and improving skin elasticity.

Almond oil is another key ingredient we chose to include in our organic body oil for dry skin. We chose to add this oil as it is high in fatty acids, which help to nourish and moisturise the skin. This oil is easily absorbed into the skin without leaving any greasy residue making it an excellent addition as it is one of the best natural oils for dry skin.

Almond oil is also rich in vitamin E, which is a powerful antioxidant that helps to protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals..

Apricot oil is another ingredient that is packed with vitamins and antioxidants. This oil is rich in vitamins A and E, which help to nourish and protect the skin. Apricot oil is also high in gamma-linolenic acid ( GLA).

GLA helps to regulate inflammation in the body and skin, which is particularly beneficial for those with skin conditions such as eczema, acne and psoriasis. By reducing inflammation, GLA helps to calm irritated and inflamed skin, which promotes healing of the skin's cells and surface.

Additionally, GLA is a type of linolenic acid, it helps to improve the skin's barrier function, which locks in moisture and keeps skin hydrated. Ideal for those with dry or ageing skin.

GLA also helps to improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and is helpful as an anti-aging agent. This is because of its natural properties that support collagen production in the skin.


We chose to use Grapeseed oil because it contains a good amount of vitamin E and high concentrations of linoleic acid, which is an omega-6 fatty acid that is essential for healthy skin. 

Linoleic acid helps to strengthen and maintain the skin's natural barrier function and improve its moisture retention. This makes it an excellent ingredient as a moisturiser for dry or sensitive skin types.

Grapeseed oil is also easily and quickly absorbed into the skin without leaving any greasy residue.

Like the other oils in our natural body oil for dry skin, it is non-comedogenic, which means it won't clog pores or cause acne breakouts.

Evening primrose oil is also rich in essential fatty acids, which nourish and hydrate the skin. This oil is also high in gamma-linolenic acid, which helps to soothe and calm the skin while locking in moisture.

Rosehip oil was included in our organic body oil because it is packed with vitamins and antioxidants. It is high in vitamins A and C, which help to nourish and maintain healthy skin. As a natural oil it is also rich in essential fatty acids, which help to nourish and hydrate the skin.

Pomegranate oil is another powerful antioxidant that helps to protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals. 

Pomegranate oil is also high in essential fatty acids, which help to nourish and hydrate the skin.

Why Are Fatty Acids Important For The Skin

Fatty acids have a critical role in maintaining the skin's natural barrier and health. They are responsible for keeping the skin hydrated, which in turn reduces inflammation. To keep the skin hydrated they prevent something called transepidermal water loss (TEWL). 

TEWL occurs when water naturally evaporates from the skin's surface. If this happens excessively, it will cause dryness, flakiness, and other skin issues. If there are not enough fatty acids present to control the evaporation then the skin will lose excess water and become dry.

There are different types of fatty acids that provide different benefits to the skin. 

For example, omega-3 fatty acids help reduce inflammation and redness, while omega-6 fatty acids can improve skin elasticity and hydration. 

Linoleic acid, which is found in high concentrations in grapeseed oil and rosehip oil, is essential for maintaining healthy skin and preventing acne. This is why we made sure to include these two oils in our natural moisturising body oil.

Natural Body Oil

All natural body oil is a fantastic alternative to commercial body oils. Not only is natural body oil far more beneficial for your skin, it is also an environmentally cleaner option.

A natural body oil moisturiser will give many natural benefits that are not found in commercial oils such as naturally occurring antioxidants, vitamins and multiple natural oils and fatty acids.

Our all natural body oil collection gives you the perfect choice of ingredients for your skin type and any skin complaints you may have.

The best natural body oil for after shower will be determined by your skin type and any skin condition you may have.

Best Natural Body Oil For Glowing Skin

Thanks to natural properties of the combined ingredients and especially the inclusion of Mandarin essential oil, our Organic Hydrating Mandarin Body Oil  also the best natural body oil for glowing skin.

Mandarin essential oil contains several organic compounds that contribute to its skin-nourishing properties. One of these compounds is limonene, which is known to improve skin's overall appearance and glow. 

Limonene has excellent antioxidant properties that help protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals and environmental stressors. It also has anti-inflammatory properties that can soothe irritated skin and reduce redness.

In addition to limonene, mandarin essential oil also contains other organic compounds such as alpha-pinene and gamma-terpinene which contribute significantly to the skin's condition and appearance.

To help compound the effects of the mandarin essential, the other natural oils in our organic body oils have skin brightening properties of their own.

Furthermore, grapefruit oil has excellent antibacterial and antifungal properties. These help to prevent infections and reduce inflammation caused by acne which is very common for people who have oily skin.

How To Use Organic Body Oil For Maximum Benefits

Using organic body oil might seem like a no-brainer, but there are certain techniques that can help you get the most out of your product. 

First and foremost, it's important to start with clean, damp skin and preferably with open pores. This helps the oil absorb more easily into your skin, and also helps lock in moisture.

Start with a warm or hot shower or bath to thoroughly cleanse your skin and open your pores. Lightly dry your skin, removing excess water, but leave it damp.

When applying the oil, start with a small amount and gently massage it into your skin in circular motions. 

Pay extra attention to dry areas like elbows and knees, and take your time to really work the body oil into your skin. If you're using the oil on your face, be sure to use a lighter hand pressure and focus on areas where you need extra hydration and nourishment.

One important thing to keep in mind is that a little goes a long way with organic body oil. Using too much can leave your skin feeling greasy and may even clog your pores. Start with a small amount and add more as needed.
