When it comes to massage – may it be erotic or any other type – it is essential to choose the oil that is best for the skin – but it also depends on each individual, as our skin type can be very different. Let’s see some of the oils therapists suggest for massage or erotic massage:
Coconut Oil – against all rumors on the street – is not heavy or greasy, it is the most natural liquid oil a masseuse can possibly use. If you have some coconut oil on your shelf to cook with feel free to apply on your skin as it is a fast remedy for dry and chapped skin – and if you like the scent of coconut, you’ll be sniffing your hands all day.
Jojoba Oil is next on the list even though it has more like a wax consistency. It is a perfect choice if you have back acne as it has antibacterial properties.
Sunflower Oil is light and non-greasy just as coconut oil. It contains linoleic acid that is also in our skin and can decline with age because of non-natural soaps and cleaners. Sunflower Oil restores this essential fatty acid in the skin to make it healthy.
Almond Oil is quite popular these days even though it’s a bit oilier than the previously mentioned natural oils, but the skin can absorb it fast. Important to note that it doesn’t irritate the skin but if you have allergies you shouldn’t use almond oil.
An exclusive alternative: the Nuru gel. This very slippery substance makes the real difference when applied to the body as it is heated up before the massage so it’s still warm when the masseuse smears it across your body. A heavenly remedy for the aching joints!
There are plenty other oil-choices that you can choose from today, make sure you do your research to find the perfect one for your skin type or ask your massage therapist.
