How to layer oils and butters
A straightforward way to build lasting moisture without an overly heavy finish.
Begin with clean, slightly damp skin. Water gives oils and butters something to seal in, which is why post-shower application often feels more comfortable.
Use a few drops of oil first where you want lightweight slip. Follow with a small amount of whipped shea butter on areas that need a richer seal.
The right amount is personal. Start small, add slowly and let your skin guide the ritual.
