Body oils

The secret to your body oil.

All Dr. Hauschka body oils are filled with our knowledge about the processing of natural ingredients – knowledge that has been growing since 1935. We have developed our own methods that involve selected plants being rhythmically processed in botanical oils for a full week. During this time, we heat the extract to 37°C – human body temperature – and mix it in the morning and evening. This allows all the power of the medicinal plants to be transferred to your finished oil.

Every Dr. Hauschka oil provides you with holistic care.

Dr. Hauschka oils not only nurture your skin and well-being – they also address your skin’s moisture balance. But how, exactly? You will experience a noticeable warming effect on the skin surface as you apply your Dr. Hauschka oil, as it contains all the solar energy that the plant has stored up over the summer. The key plant in each oil determines how this warmth is distributed throughout your skin. Our Lemon Lemongrass Vitalising Body Oil, for example, helps you centre the warmth, leaving you feeling awake and full of energy. The Rose Nurturing Body Oil brings general harmony, while the Blackthorn Toning Body Oil, brings a feeling of warmth to your skin. The latter also makes for a wonderful pregnancy oil: when combined with a pinching massage, it supports the skin’s elasticity and keeps it nice and supple. The Birch Arnica Energising Body Oil is the perfect massage oil, warming tense muscles and strained joints. Finally, the Moor Lavender Calming Body Oil helps you strengthen your own boundaries and leaves you feeling protected and comforted – making it the oil of choice for many people suffering from stress at work or school. So, as you can see, each Dr. Hauschka oil has its own individual power and special area of use.

How you can boost the effectiveness of your body oil.

Use your body oil to care for yourself with all your senses: breathe in the scent of the essential oils, enjoy the silky fluid texture and feel the touch of your own hands. Touch is incredibly potent at boosting the effectiveness of skin care products. We recommend applying a Dr. Hauschka oil to damp skin after showering or bathing – this allows it to absorb quickly and means a small amount goes a long way. The only Dr. Hauschka oil that can also be used on dry skin is our Moor Lavender Calming Body Oil. Shake briefly to transform the two-phase oil into a lotion.

When paired with a pampering massage or rub, the effectiveness of your body oil can be further enriched by the human attention and warmth.

Your body oil: a natural skin care product.

We select valuable natural ingredients for your body oil. We grow these ingredients in our own garden or fields in accordance with the strict guidelines of the Demeter certification organisation, harvest them in the wild or source them from organically run partner farms. For you, this means you are pampering your skin with certified natural skin care that is free from synthetic fragrances, dyes and preservatives, mineral oils, silicones and PEGs and that is developed entirely without animal testing.
