How you can use After:
1. As a body hydration oil
Current After oil fans use this product as a hydration oil. This is the most popular and well-known way of using the oil. With the combination of sweet macadamia and hazelnut oil and real whiskey; this After oil is perfect to lather on your skin after the shower.
2. As a bath oil (5 pumps in bath)
Adding oil to your bath creates a more moisturised smooth feel to your skin. When oil is mixed with warm water, it penetrates deeper into the skin and provides a great sense of rejuvenation. The warmth of oil aids in improved circulation. Reduces fatigue, stiff joints and motion in joints. By adding 5 pumps into your bath, you can create an ultra-relaxing pamper afternoon.
3. As a shaving oil
You should never shave without using something to soften and protect your skin while also making it slicker. Oil is a great substitute for body wash and shaving cream as it is a form of lubricant for your skin. By using the After oil for shaving it reduces the risk of ingrown hairs, bumps, nicks and cuts. The oil will also eliminate razor burn, redness and itchiness; leaving your skin smooth and hydrated.
4. For scarring and stretch marks (Apply to body for 3-5 mins per day)
After helps reduce scarring and stretch marks. By applying the oil to your body and rubbing in affected areas for 3-5 minutes per day you will reduce the appearance of scarring. After is distilled with Vitamin E which is an extremely powerful antioxidant that helps your skin cells stay healthy. Vitamin E also helps your skin look smooth, soft and free of lines, stretch marks and scarring.
5. As a hair oil
Oils play an important role in protecting hair from regular wear and tear. Using After as a hair oil in itself can be used in different ways. After washing hair apply a smaller drop of oil to hands and rub gently into ends of hair as a form of hair oil treatment. You can also use the oil for flyaways and frizz. For an overnight treatment gently apply oil to scalp and massage with fingertips, with the oil residue left on hands; apply to rest of your hair. Cover with towel or shower cap and leave overnight. Wash hair thoroughly the following morning with Shampoo & Conditioner. Oiling your hair 1-2 times a week is enough. Doing it every day can attract dirt and also strip away essential oils from your hair.
6. Paired with our body contour Gua Sha to perform a lymphatic drainage massage
Use After with the Body Contour Gua Sha to perform an at home lymphatic drainage massage. Apply After to skin, then gently press the concave curve of the body contour against skin. Apply moderate pressure whilst massaging body contour over skin. Using firm, sweeping motions start from the ankles and move upwards to the heart. Use same motion on arms, stomach and back.
Repeat 1-2 times over, 3 times per week.
This will help increase circulation, loosen muscle knots, hydrate fascia, drain lymph.
