Oiling can be beneficial for your hair in several ways. It helps nourish and moisturize the scalp, which can promote healthier hair growth and reduce dryness. The natural botanical oils used also contain essential nutrients that can strengthen the hair shaft, prevent breakage, and add shine. Regular hair oiling, combined with gentle massage, can also improve blood and oxygen flow to the scalp, further promoting hair health.
THE SCIENCE BEHIND HAIR OILING
Sebum is a natural oil that is produced from the sebaceous glands in our scalp that helps maintain our hair health. Sebum is meant to help by moisturizing and lubricating hair as a natural conditioner. But when it’s not produced in balanced amounts, hair feels extra greasy or super dry and flaky. This is where hair oiling can be helpful.
A quality hair oil will mimic the effects that natural sebum provides. Because we all produce sebum, hair oiling works for all hair types. When you coat the strands, it seals in the moisture instead of having it evaporate. This properly nourishes the hair deep within the strands and scalp.
BENEFITS OF OILING YOUR HAIR
Hydrating and Nourishing the Hair
One of the main benefits of hair oiling is the amount of moisture and hydration your hair gets. When applying hair oil, the product will form a protective barrier around the hair shaft. By sealing it in, the hair won’t lose any moisture due to evaporation. This also locks in important nutrients that the oil provides the hair.
Stimulating Hair Growth
When you massage the hair oil into your scalp, not only are you letting the nutrients soak in, but you are also stimulating hair growth. The scalp massage promotes blood circulation that goes to the hair roots. This causes regeneration and growth while strengthening the hair strands.
Strengthening Hair Strands
When the nutrients of hair oil coat the strands, they protect the hair from breaking off. Furthermore, when the strands that are growing from the top of the scalp are moisturized and full of nutrients from the beginning, they come out strong.
Managing Split Ends and Breakage
Strong hair and hair growth come from managing your split ends and preventing breakage. When the strands are coated at the bottom, they are less likely to have breakage. A quality hair oil will impact all three layers of the hair strand, strengthening it from the inside out.
Improved Scalp Health and Reduced Dandruff
It may feel counterintuitive to apply oil to a scalp that is dealing with dandruff. Some people have the misconception that you are adding more debris up there. But a healthy and hydrated scalp will reduce flaking and promote positive roots.
Protecting Hair from Environmental Damage
The environment plays a big role in our hair. The wind, low humidity, and evaporation all lead to moisture loss. The sun and UVs also dry out our hair. Hair oiling offers a protective barrier from environmental factors that can dry it out.
So, the product itself doesn’t really need anything else to mattify the face. There’s no powder or anything else drying inside of it – all the oil-absorbing properties come from the rock itself so it’s 100% safe for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
How Does Volcanic Stone Roller Work?
The tool consists of a small volcanic stone ball and a handle. The tool is really simple and easy to use – you just roll it all over the areas on the face that need some shine reduction.
After passing the rollerball back and forth over the skin a few times, you’ll notice the oily spots disappear like magic. The volcanic stone roller absorbs excess sebum from the skin’s surface – without disrupting your makeup!
The best part is you don’t layer anything on top of your skin. Caking your face in layers and layers of mattifying powders can clog up your pores and lead to breakouts and blemishes. This is especially true if your skin is acne-prone.
But just to let you know to keep your expectations realistic – the mattifying effect doesn’t last all day because, like any oil-absorbing product, how long that mattifying effect lasts depends on your specific skin type and how much oil it produces so you will need to use again.
How to Clean a Volcanic Roller
Any volcanic stone roller is incredibly easy to clean and maintain.
To clean it just unscrew the very top of it, remove the stone from the handle and rinse it with gentle soap and warm water. Then just let it air dry fully before putting it back into the handle. Voila! It’s ready to be used time and time again.
The frequency of cleaning really depends on usage. In general, the more you use it, the more frequently you should wash it. For example, if you use it daily, you should wash it at least once a week.
The oil absorbing roller is made to be a sustainable swap for blotting sheets, but it’s worth noting that it’s not a product that will last forever.
At some point, the volcanic roller will lose its efficiency and oil spots will start to appear after the stone wears off. This is a sign to get a new one.
Tip #1 Creating A Micro-Climate of Moisture
Silicone on the skin creates the perfect environment for moisture. No air can get to the area with the silicone pads, so it draws moisture to the surface of skin and stays there. It draws so much moisture to the surface of your skin, it plumps up wrinkles.
It doesn’t just bring moisture to the skin; it also increases blood flow. Increased blood flow is so important for your skin and helps collagen production. Collagen production is the key to combating wrinkles.
Tip #2 Never Combine With Products
Your initial instinct will be to apply a serum to your skin prior to applying the Dreambox silicone pad for wrinkles. But that is 100% wrong! The pads are to be worn on clean dry skin with absolutely no product or lotions underneath. Using lotions can interfere with the adhesive quality of the pads and can also cause rashes and reactions. Night sweats, hot flashes and perspiration can interfere with the adhesive quality of the pads as well. If you are experiencing this, wipe the skin with witch hazel and allow to dry prior to applying the pad.
Tip #3 Best Results In 2 Weeks
For example, when using Chest Pads, you should see results overnight and the results last longer as you do not recreate the wrinkle-causing position right away (usually sleeping on your side). For wrinkles on your forehead, you will see longer lasting results after about two weeks of wearing the pads.
Tip #4 Wear Them To Bed
This is literally the easiest skin care implement to use – EVER! You just put it on before bed. You have zero excuses why you’re not using it. Typically the pads are worn at bedtime. However, the pads can be used during the daytime as well.
Tip #5 Wear Them Consistently
In order to get the best results wear the Dreambox silicone pads for wrinkles on a consistent basis. It’s suggested 7-8 hours of application will give you the best results. Wear them while you sleep – if you’re an insomniac and don’t get 7-8 hours, apply them before bed or leave them on after you wake up.

These are some of our favorite natural remedies for tightening your neck naturally.
One effective exercise to tighten neck skin is the constant stretching and relaxing of lower facial muscles. This stretching exercise can make the muscles around the neck active, potentially stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin.

Tip #1 Create a micro climate
The Skin Plumping nighttime treatment pads hydrate the skin, improve the collagen and flatten wrinkles. With prolonged use, the pads start a wound healing response and starts collagen production in the area. This causes the softening of lines and wrinkles giving your skin a more youthful and supple appearance.

Use a lip balm that’s ointment-based
This remedy will lock in the moisture and help heal cracks and splits in the skin. Look for a healing ointment that contains petrolatum, essential oils or glycerin. Such as our Hydrating Lip Treatment, you can find here.
Stay away from lip balms containing camphor, eucalyptus and menthol
These ingredients initially feel soothing, but actually dry out your lips and make the problem worse. When your lips become more dry and irritated, you apply more of this kind of lip balm, and the cycle continues.
Make sure your lip balm contains sunscreen
Another important ingredient in lip balm is sunscreen. Despite the colder temperatures, the sun still shines in the winter. Your lips can still get burned and are more susceptible to burning than the rest of your face, as the skin is thinner and more delicate.
Stay hydrated
Drinking plenty of water is known to be good for your skin — and this includes your sensitive lips.
Don’t lick your lips
When your lips are dry, it’s natural to want to lick them to make them moist. But licking your lips actually has the opposite effect. Once you put saliva on your lips, it actually makes them dry out faster, making your lips even more dry overall. Plus, the enzymes that are in saliva that are meant to digest food are irritating to the lips.
Don’t bite, brush or rub your lips when they’re flaking or peeling
You may also feel the need to get rid of that pesky, irritating feeling that flaking and peeling causes — after all, it feels so much better when your lips are smooth! However, try to resist that urge.
It’s much better not to scrub your lips or pick the peeling skin off with your teeth or your fingers. That just creates cracks and sores on your lips and can make things worse. Instead, apply a very heavy ointment-based balm that will be soothing and will help to heal your lips. Try our All Natural Sugar Lip Scrubs here.
Be vigilant about treating chapped lips
Treat severe peeling and cracks right away. If you let chapped lips go, they can become worse, possibly infected or may even lead to a cold sore. For example, the herpes simplex virus has a tendency to attack when your immune system is down, which can happen more frequently in the winter. And when your lips are peeling, cracking and dry, it doesn’t help the situation, creating an environment more ideal for that annoying invader as your defenses are down.
There's really no reason to wash your face in the morning, especially if you thoroughly cleansed the night before. But, at the same time, there's nothing wrong with cleansing the face every morning, as long as you're not overstripping the skin with harsh, drying cleansers. It's just a matter of personal preference. But, what about the big bad bacteria that lurks on your pillowcase, waiting to clog your pores unless you wash your face? I wouldn't really worry about that. It's one of those problems that isn't actually a problem; if you're breaking out, there's likely a larger cause.
The only time we do wash our face in the morning, though, is before we put on moisturizer. If you're using a moisturizer in the morning, you need to splash some water on your skin first. Moisturizers are like Saran wrap for your skin—they lock in dampness to keep you hydrated and glowing.
