Im really happy that as a beauty pro I have learned whole heartedly to not be afraid of using an oil on my face. There are many people who fear it will be too shiny or less then Ideal use of oil. Not only is oil a non comedogenic safe product to use on your face but if you are an aging person your skin with thank you immediately. If you happen to suffer from oily skin problems you can still enjoy the benefit but try using only at night so as not to end up with a shiny face during the day. This brand has a lovely dropper that will not allow you to use too much at one time. The smell is a really pleasant floral experience and it spreads very very nicely over my aging skin and it has a rich gold color with literally adds to the dewy glow of your skin when using this luxurious oil product. Banyan products can help prevent premature aging of the skin by protecting your skins top layer from environmental factors which is a huge win and anyone with skin should give it a shot.

I have been working in the beauty industry for more than a decade therefore I could give you a long winded reason to apply this luxurious body oil on almost any body part from head to toe. Many of us in the salon have been doing PRE shampoo oil treatments with Body oils to alleviate problem scalps and then of course you receive a scalp massage and shampoo it out before sending a person home with a shiny head. This fast absorbing oil is not made for scalp massage but I found it useful. It was formulated with both an esthetician and scent expert so the scent not only served as a nice experience but it totally has skin benefits including a huge and beneficial flex that it can protect your skin from premature aging caused by environmental factors in the environment. Dont skip this wonderful luxurious body oil experience. Only a tiny amount squirts out of the application spout and that is all you will need to enjoy the full benefits. It is rich in color as well which adds to the dewy glow you will experience when using on the body.

Body Oil

Banyan Botanical Body OilI have some seriously dry skin and there’s nothing I love more than to get out of the shower and apply body oil while my skin is still wet. I was really excited to try out Banyan Botanical’s Body oil after seeing the beautiful list of ingredients they added. Jojoba oil is one of my favorites and I noticed they showcased that as a main ingredient. The first thing I was excited about and knew I would love right away was the dispenser. Something so simple that so many brands seem to get wrong. It’s easy to overuse body oils, I like the pump on this one and it helps you to distribute only as much as you need. The smell is familiar, I can’t exactly put my finger on it. Almost like a very muted patchouli and lavender, which I found a tad stronger than I was expecting; at the same time, I wouldn’t go as far as saying it’s overwhelming. It’s natural, woodsy, and unisex which I like. I first tried it on my dry skin and I thought it absorbed well. I did find that it was a little greasy, but that didn’t bother me. It claims it’s not greasy, however, I defer on that opinion. I’d say my only real issue was when I used it on my damp, fresh out of the shower skin. I did not feel as if it absorbed as well as other oils I’ve tried in the past. I do think that it’s helping with my dry skin issue tremendously and it makes my skin look healthier and more radiant- something I very much appreciate. It is a lightweight formula and is very easy to apply. I’d say about 1-2 drops per leg would be an ideal amount. My skin feels much more hydrated when I wear it and I absolutely would say it’s a lasting hydration. Although, I didn’t care for how it applied to my skin after the shower, (which is mainly when I use body oils), I will continue using it as a finishing touch for long-lasting, youthful, silky soft hydrated skin. I don’t have an issue changing up how I use my body oil. It’s a great product, there’s really nothing bad I can say about it. I’d recommend it to others.

The Banyan Botanicals facial oil has become a new favorite in my skincare routine. This oil absorbs beautifully into your skin and leaves behind only a natural, healthy glow. It feels silky and light on your face, does not feel as if your face is suffocating from an oily, greasy product. Actually, for a facial oil, it doesn’t feel or look oily or greasy at all. It’s hydrating and moisturizing.In the morning, I like to apply it all over my face directly after the shower, then continue with the rest of my skincare routine. I’ve actually cut back on the amount of makeup I use because I’m really enjoying the natural beauty this product brings out in me. It seems to brighten up my face and leaves behind lasting hydration where I need it the most. On the one occasion I did decide to wear a full face of makeup after applying, I had no issues with it flaking or disrupting my makeup look. In the evenings when I like to spend a little more time pampering myself, I apply a little more and use my facial massager. It glides so perfectly. When I’m finished, I like to rub the rest down my neck and on my chest. Banyan Botanicals has truly become the highlight of my skincare routine.I love that this oil is so light, yet a little is all you need. It’s slightly fragranced, but nothing overwhelming. It has a very pleasant, fresh, natural scent. Only after using this product for a week, I’ve noticed an improvement in my skin’s texture. It feels much softer and smoother. I appreciate that this brand has decided to focus on using ingredients that target the skin’s barrier and the added vitamin E shines in a way that I’m even noticing some older blemishes start to diminish. As a licensed professional in the beauty industry, I know that vitamin E, if used correctly, can be your best friend when it comes to skincare. It shows that Banyan Botanicals used only ingredients with the most beneficial results when creating this amazing product.From experience, I know some may shy away from the idea of adding oil to their face. I would encourage anyone who feels this way to give this one a try.I am beyond thoroughly impressed with this facial oil and I would highly recommend it. I will be rushing to replace mine when it's out.
