Proper oil for post facial acupuncture?

By Archived User | Updated: Dec 31, 2021 | Published: Dec 31, 2021

Thanks for the info. Can anyone recommend a good oil that can be used on the face post treatment for massage purposes …

If you’re doing just a light/gentle type of massage (which is the only type you should be doing for cosmetic whether face or other areas of the body) you shouldn’t need any oil. Did you have a specific intent in mind - i.e. an oil to help relax, an oil to stimulate blood flow, something along those lines? Even then I still wouldn’t recommend anything except perhaps coconut oil for the face. Using more targeted types of oils is okay for body work but not the face. Perhaps someone with more extensive facial massage experience would have a different suggestion.
