In the quest for radiant, healthy skin, most of us focus on facial skincare while completely overlooking the importance of a body care routine. However, proper body skincare is also essential for maintaining overall skin health. A good body care routine will help prevent issues like dryness, irritation, and premature aging. And using high-quality products like Oliveda’s body care line will elevate your skincare routine, providing your skin with the nourishment it needs to glow from head to toe.
What are the Benefits of a Proper Body Care Routine
Hydration and Moisture Retention
The skin on our body can lose moisture due to environmental factors, frequent bathing, and exposure to harsh chemicals. So proper body care helps maintain hydration levels, and further ensuring that your skin stays soft and supple.
Protection Against Environmental Damage
Just like the face, the skin on our body is exposed to environmental pollutants and UV radiation. Using body care products with antioxidants can protect the skin from these harmful elements. This will help keep your skin healthy.
Improved Skin Texture
Regular exfoliation and moisturizing can enhance skin texture, making it smoother and more even-toned.
Prevention of Skin Conditions
Proper body care can prevent and manage skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and acne by keeping the skin barrier healthy and resilient.
The Ideal Body Care Routine
Oliveda, renowned for its effective and holistic approach to skincare, offers a range of body care products infused with the power of olive tree extracts. Here’s how you can incorporate these products into your daily routine for optimal results:
Body Care Step 1: Dry Brushing
Proper body care starts before the application of any products. Dry brushing is one of the most optimal ways to enhance your skin and improve its overall health. Dry brushing helps to stimulate the lymphatic system, exfoliate dead skin cells, and increase blood circulation. By dry brushing consistently, the energy in your body will be moved around, resulting in a beautiful and healthy glow.
- How to Use: Using a natural bristle brush, gently brush your dry skin in long, sweeping motions starting from your feet and moving upwards towards your heart. Do this before showering for 5-10 minutes.
Body Care Step 2: Cleansing
Start your routine with one of Oliveda’s Shower Gels. Oliveda’s gentle, yet effective, cleansers remove dirt and impurities without stripping the skin of its natural oils. And with 3 different shower gel options available, there is something for everyone! Oliveda’s shower gels will awaken your senses, revitalize your skin, offer a mini-detox, and pamper and nurture your skin with natural emollients and a spa-like sensations.
- How to Use: Apply a generous amount to a washcloth or loofah and lather onto damp skin. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
Body Care Step 3: Exfoliation
While dry brushing exfoliates mechanically, using an exfoliating scrub like Pomifera’s Reveal Body Exfoliant provides a deeper exfoliation with the added benefits of nourishing oils for a velvety-smooth finish. Exfoliating will smooth, polish, and hydrate your skin with natural exfoliants that will buff away dullness and reveal more radiant-looking skin.
- How to Use: Use the scrub 1-2 times a week. Massage onto damp skin in circular motions, focusing on rough areas like elbows and knees. Rinse off with warm water.
Body Care Step 4: Treatment
The next step in your skincare routine should include addressing specific skin concerns with targeted treatments. Oliveda offers several serums that will do just that. This include’s Oliveda’s Cell Active Body Serum which visibly tightens skin, reduces cellulite, and endorses the loss of fat cells; Oliveda’s 3 different body oil serums which fight blemishes and reduce the appearance of scars; and Oliveda’s Olive Leaf Skin Gel which heals blemishes, redness, scars, eczema, sunburns and even small abrasions.
- How to Use: Apply the serum/oil/gel to problem areas, massaging in until fully absorbed.
Body Care Step 5: Moisturizing
Lock in moisture for silky smooth skin with one (or more!) of Oliveda’s Body Creams, Balms, or Butters. These rich, luxurious moisturizers deeply hydrate the skin, leaving it soft, supple, and smooth.
- How to Use: After showering, pat your skin dry and apply the body cream/balm/butter generously. Pay special attention to dry areas.
Body Care Step 6: Sealing
For an extra boost of nourishment and to seal in moisture, incorporate Oliveda’s Body Oils into your routine.
- How to Use: Apply the body oil to damp skin for better absorption. You can also mix a few drops with your body butter or cream for an ultra-moisturizing experience. Or you can layer on top of your moisturizer to seal it all in.
Body Care Step 7: Protection (SPF)
Protecting your skin should always be at the top of your skincare routine for both your face and your body. So it is vital to protect your skin from harmful UV rays by applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen each morning. While Oliveda does not currently offer an SPF product, it’s essential to include this step in your routine.
- How to Use: Apply sunscreen to all exposed skin areas at least 15 minutes before going outside. Reapply every two hours, especially if you’re swimming or sweating.
Body Care Step 8: Mist (Perfume)
Finish your routine with a refreshing body mist or perfume.
- How to Use: Lightly mist over your body, focusing on pulse points like the wrists and neck.
