Relax Body and Massage Oil 101: Why, when and how to use
Introducing Relax Body and Massage Oil, a clean massage oil that doubles as an everyday body oil with lavender aromatherapy.
Like the rest of the Bloomi Essentials, it is formulated with natural ingredients and your intimate skin in mind. We’re breaking down why, when and how using a body and massage oil can elevate your intimate moments and intimate care routine.
Ingredients and benefits
When we launched our beloved Luxe Massage Oil, it quickly became a top-seller within our community. So we decided to make Relax, a clean, multi-purpose massage oil that can be used as an everyday body oil and intimate skin moisturizer — at an even more accessible price. It contains high-quality, moisturizing ingredients that work together to soothe the senses and nourish the skin.
For example, we included lavender aromatherapy in our formula, as lavender has soothing properties that help the body relax and unwind naturally. Relax also contains hydrating oils, like pumpkin seed oil, making it an all-over body moisturizer that you can follow up with after your shower routine.
Sesame oil is a natural anti-inflammatory that alleviates dryness and helps prevent yeast infections.
Pumpkin seed oil nourishes the skin and enhances blood flow.
Lavender is a relaxing aroma that soothes the senses.
Like every product from our Bloomi collection, Relax is formulated with botanicals from our Yes List, which means it’s free from parabens, phthalates, glycerin, dyes, synthetic fragrances and ingredients that disrupt intimate skin.
Why we made Relax
Massage oils are a great tool to use if you’re seeking to strengthen intimacy within your relationships — with yourself and/or your partner(s). It allows you to experience skin-to-skin contact, which can help with mind and body connection. Using a massage oil during couples’ massages is an opportunity to practice sexual communication and explore new sensations together.
When to use Relax
You can use Relax anytime you want, wherever you want. It’s travel-size, so it’s small enough to slip into your bag while running errands. Most people use it during their nighttime routine to help the body unwind and fall into a deep sleep. However, you get to decide how to use Relax. It’s worth a try if you relate to any of the following:
You experience tension or stress in certain areas of the body.
You have trouble sleeping and are looking for a natural aromatherapy alternative.
You want to incorporate all-over body oil into your daily routine.
You’re excited to try a massage oil during partner or solo sessions.
You enjoy an intimate skin moisturizer with a fresh, lavender aroma.
How to use Relax
The first step before using any product on your skin, whether that’s all over or just your intimate areas, is to test it on a patch of skin to avoid potential skin reactions. Relax is intended to be used as an all-over body moisturizer or intimate skin moisturizer.
If you’re planning to use Relax to build sensual moments, with yourself and/or a partner, apply five-to-10 pumps to the palms of your hands and gently massage into the area that holds tension or stress. If using Relax as an intimate skin moisturizer, apply two-to-four pumps externally on the intimate skin. We recommend not applying directly after freshly shaven or waxed skin, as the lavender may cause irritation. Note: This formula is designed for external use.
