Picture this - the stress from this week is finally coming to an end and you’re looking forward to having a weekend of calm, peace, and self-care. What’re you going to do?

5 best massage oils for women over 40

"Nothing like a nice massage for relieving the built up stress from the week , don't you think?," says Elizabeth, CEO of Empress Naturals. "Finding the time for a self-massage at home every other night has transformed my sleep and rest time routine”

Going to a nice, luxurious spa to get a massage is truly a craving but let's be real, most of us can't afford to take that much time and money out every week to fulfill these desires. 

The ultimate alternative, perhaps, and an incredible date night idea (what a bonus!) is to give yourself and your partner a luxurious and relaxing massage at home!

This is where massage oils and other therapeutic products come in. You'll be able to fall into the ultimate self-care mindset and unwind from everyday pressures like work and relationships, as well as soothe aches and pains and tired muscles, by using various clean yet effective products! 

Massage in your nighttime routine

Here's the best part about including massage into your nighttime routine - it is as flexible as your schedule.  It is simple to incorporate massage into your daily regimen. On days when you genuinely have time for yourself, a full-body treatment is ideal.

You can do it after your shower while relaxing or catching up on your favorite show.  On days when you're pressed for time, though, you can massage small sections of your body that feel tired than the rest.

For instance, for those who spend a lot of their day at the desk, massaging your neck and shoulder muscles is so helpful to release tension! Whichever you select, you will undoubtedly feel revitalized and renewed from everyday worries.

FIND THE RIGHT BLEND IN MASSAGE OILS 

Jojoba Oil

Contrary to popular belief, jojoba oil is not an oil.  It is a form of wax made from the pods of the jojoba plant. Jojoba has so many properties that make it the ideal massage-based oil.

It has antimicrobial characteristics, it is not oily and will not ruin your bed linens. Jojoba oil has been commonly used for full body massages since it is considered to be helpful for curing back acne. It is easily absorbed by the skin and hence can be reapplied. 

Benefits of Jojoba Oil: 

  • It restores the skin barrier that has been destroyed by eczema, seborrheic dermatitis, acne, and acute dermatitis. Jojoba oil is high in wax ether and anti-inflammatory qualities, making it ideal for skin care.  
  • It has incredible anti-aging properties that will help your body skin retain it’s hydration and glow from within. 
  • Jojoba is a great carrier oil to mix with other essential oils to enhance your massage experience. 

Empress Tip:
Try mixing it with drops of lavender or ylang ylang and massage it on your feet every night for a restful and calm massage! 

Sunflower Oil

This lightweight oil is used for both cooking and popularly in massage.

Empress Tip:
Sunflower oil can get rancid. A good way to preserve your sunflower oil is to add 1-2 vitamin E pills into the oil and store it in a cool and dry location.  

Benefits of Sunflower Oil: 

  • Sunflower oil improves the appearance of your body skin by boosting its moisture levels.
  • Use sunflower oil to enhance your skin's barrier healing function. As a result, it can have anti-aging properties for your epidermis.
  • Sunflower oil is high in important fatty acids, which help to rejuvenate your epidermis.  Regular massaging with this oil will leave your complexion glowing and luminous.

Argan Oil

Argan Oil is your best friend for an after-shower or after bath massage. It is non-greasy and airy so it works to immediately soften your epidermis.

Benefits Of Argan Oil: 

  • Argan Oil massage enhances the suppleness of your skin. This firms it up and works towards resolving aging symptoms like sagging skin. 
  • It moisturizes your face and boosts its hydration levels. It also helps your skin's ability to retain hydration. This can keep your epidermis hydrated and healthy.
  • A deep-tissue massage using argan oil is said to calm sore muscles while also reducing swelling and joint discomfort.
