Ancient Wisdom, Modern Glow: My Journey Through Global Oil Rituals

As I shared in my recent YouTube video, “✨ I Tried Ancient Oil Rituals for a Week – Here's What Changed,” essential oils aren’t just a trend—they’re timeless beauty rooted in sacred tradition.

This past week, I immersed myself in oil rituals from three powerful cultural traditions—Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and African healing. And let me tell you: the results were transformative.

Ayurveda: The Art of Balance

In ancient India, wellness starts with harmony. Ayurvedic oil rituals like abhyanga (warm oil massage) do more than nourish the skin—they calm the nervous system and balance your inner world. When I used lavender oil nightly, I felt my stress melt away while my lips stayed soothed and soft.

Chinese Medicine: Energy in Every Drop

Traditional Chinese Medicine taught me that oils like peppermint can activate the body’s energy flow—or Qi. It wasn’t just a tingle; it was circulation, vitality, and clarity in a jar. Our scrubs honor that same philosophy: every swipe helps you glow from the inside out.

African Healing: Sacred Moisture & Ritual

In African beauty traditions, oil isn’t a product—it’s protection, intention, and ancestral love. Frankincense, rich and earthy, has been used for centuries to deeply hydrate and uplift the skin and spirit. It’s why we include it in our signature formula—to help your lips stay soft, sacred, and strong.
