    Essential Oils for Toning Skin Really Work! Learn How to Make a DIY Body Toning Oil for Smooth Skin.

    How to Make a DIY Body Toning Oil for Smooth Skin

    Wouldn't it be fabulous if you could find a DIY body toning oil that would magically transform your body without you needing to go to the gym or eat right?

    Well, that is what I've got for you today.

    KIDDING.

    I wish, but let's be honest. If I had a formulation of skin toning oils that would transform your body without effort, I wouldn't be a blogger. I'd be selling that formula and enjoying my millions. 🙂

    So let's get real.

    Essential Oils for Toning Skin Really Work! Learn How to Make a DIY Body Toning Oil for Smooth Skin.
    We all know that most of our body tone happens in the kitchen and in the gym.

    There isn't a way around that.

    However, sometimes when we reach a certain age, our skin starts to lose its tone despite our best efforts.

    I have lost a bit of weight this year, and while this thrilled me, I haven't been entirely happy with my skin. It isn't that I had loose skin, exactly. Just that it wasn't feeling as tone or as smooth as it did years ago. (Weirdly, the spot that bothers me the most is my upper knees. Ah, the joys of aging.)

    I started researching skin toning oils and essential oils for toning skin, determined to do SOMETHING to at least fight back.

    This DIY Body Toning Oil has three of my favorite stimulating essential oils.

     

    The Quality of The Essential Oils You Use Matters!

    After looking closely at the quality, purity, and ethics of so many companies, I've fallen in love with both the company and their oils. They have a large line of organic oils and are serious about safety. Every single batch is tested to ensure purity!

    s for Body Toning

     

    • Black Pepper - It has a dry, woodsy scent. It also helps with aching joints and muscles which is nice. Because you know, we do have to work for it.
    • Ginger - Ginger is a warming oil that helps to increase blood flow. it is also helpful for joint and muscle pain.
    • Lemongrass - Lemongrass has a fresh, lemony scent and is useful in helping to increase circulation.

    They combine to make a pleasant smelling DIY Body Toning Oil. I have been using it daily after my shower and have been pleased with the results.

    Have you ever thought about using essential oils for body toning?

      This is a really cool idea. The toning oil combo should come in handy for the shaping up the skin. I'm definitely curious about the benefits of the ginger oil.

      I actually had no idea there was such a thing as black pepper essential oil. Which is funny because I use essential oils a lot.

      Ever since I had the kids, it's been a little tough to loose the extra weight. I've been working out these past months though and I agree with the feel of my skin as well. I think it has to be a little more toned. I didn't know you could use essential oils for that! SO COOL!
