• Baobab Oil: 30ml (1 fl oz)
• Essential Oil (optional):
• For adult use: 2-3 drops total
• For baby use: 1 drop maximum
• Recommended Essential Oils: Lavender (calming, promotes sleep), chamomile (gentle, soothing for upset tummies), or mandarin (uplifting, gentle for sensitive skin) work beautifully in this oil.
• **Essential Oils to AVOID: Peppermint, eucalyptus, or rosemary should never be used for babies as they can irritate respiratory systems and sensitive skin.

3. Cap the bottle tightly and gently shake to combine the oils thoroughly

Ingredient Benefits:

• Shea Oil: Lightweight texture perfect for massage without feeling greasy. Rich in vitamins A, E, and F to nourish skin during massage. Absorbs at the perfect rate for massage techniques. Gentle enough for daily use on the most sensitive skin.
• Baobab Oil: Exceptional skin softening properties for long-lasting comfort. Rich in omega fatty acids that support skin elasticity. Absorbs completely without leaving residue on clothing. Contains antioxidants that protect skin during physical manipulation.

How to Use: Apply a small amount to palms and warm between hands before gently massaging into skin. For baby, use gentle circular motions on the tummy for colic relief or long strokes on the back for relaxation. For mothers, focus on areas of tension like shoulders, neck, or lower back.
