🌿 To use Bayou Botanical on your face, start with a clean, slightly damp complexion. Warm 3–5 drops between your palms, then gently press and massage into your skin. Use it morning and night after cleansing and toning, or mix with your moisturizer for added hydration.
Detailed Usage Guide:
1. Cleanse and Tone:
Begin with a clean face, using a gentle cleanser to remove dirt and makeup. Then, apply your regular toner or essence to prepare the skin for better oil absorption.
2. Apply to Damp Skin:
Apply the botanical oil while your skin is still slightly damp, as this enhances moisture retention and absorption.
3. Warm the Oil:
Place a few drops of the oil in the palm of one hand and then warm it up by gently rubbing the palms of your hands together.
4. Apply and Massage:
Gently press and massage the warmed oil onto your face and neck, using upward and outward motions. This helps with lymphatic drainage and encourages better absorption.
5. Morning vs. Night:
You can use face oil both morning and night. In the morning, apply it after your moisturizer to lock in hydration. At night, apply it after cleansing and toning, allowing the oil to nourish and replenish your skin while you sleep.
6. Boost Your Moisturizer:
If your skin needs extra hydration, simply mix a few drops with your favorite moisturizer for an added boost of nourishment.
We’ve found that adding just a few drops of Bayou Botanical to a clean cream or lotion rich in ceramides and fatty acids—like CeraVe, Atopalm MLE, Vanicream, or Cetaphil—creates a powerful synergy. The botanical blend and the nourishing base amplify each other’s benefits, making your skincare routine even more effective.
7. Storage:
Store your face oil in a cool, dark place to maintain its effectiveness.
8. Patch Test:
Always perform a patch test when trying a new oil to ensure it doesn’t irritate your skin.
9. Less is More:
Start with a few drops and gradually increase the amount if needed.
Tip: Keep a travel-size bottle in your bag for on-the-go hydration, especially during flights or harsh weather days.
Bayou Botanical Oil for All-Over Body Care, Nails &Â Cuticles
Our all-natural botanical oil is a deeply nourishing treatment designed to hydrate, soften, and protect your skin—from head to toe. Rich in vitamins and essential fatty acids, this versatile blend is perfect for restoring moisture to dry hands, soothing rough cuticles, and giving your body a radiant, healthy glow.
Our essential oil blend works great on revitalizing tattoos, too!
How to Use
1. Start with Clean Skin:
For best results, apply the oil after a shower or bath, when your skin is clean and slightly damp. This helps lock in moisture and enhances absorption.
2. Warm the Oil:
Dispense a few drops into the palm of your hand. Rub your hands together to warm the oil—this activates the botanicals and helps the product spread more easily.
3. Apply to Body:
Massage the warmed oil into your skin using circular motions. Focus on areas that tend to be drier, such as elbows, knees, and heels.
4. For Hands & Cuticles:
Apply 1–2 drops directly onto the backs of your hands and massage in, paying extra attention to your knuckles and cuticle area. For very dry cuticles, apply a drop to each fingertip and gently massage it in.
5. Layer or Mix:
You can use the oil on its own or mix a few drops into your regular body lotion for an extra hydration and nourishment boost.

6. Daily Use:
Use daily or as needed. In drier climates or colder months, you may find yourself reaching for it more often.
7. Storage:
Keep your oil in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve its potency and freshness.
8. Patch Test First:
If you’re using the oil for the first time, we recommend a patch test to ensure it’s compatible with your skin.
9. Less is More:
A little goes a long way. Start with a small amount and increase only if needed—our blend is rich and concentrated.
