How to Use Rosewood Body Glow: A Complete Guide

Rosewood Body Glow puts glow and scent on your skin in one step. The set pairs our Rosewood and Litsea Cubeba Imperial Jade Body Oil with the Rejuvenating Body Cream with Kalahari Oil in the same scent. How to use Rosewood Body Glow: oil on damp skin, straight out of the bath or shower. On very dry skin, the cream goes on first.

The minute after bathing is what this set is for. Skin is still damp and warm, and that warmth is where the scent opens. Rosewood is smooth and polished. Litsea cubeba gives it a bright, lemony lift, and fresh bergamot rounds it out.

How to Use Rosewood Body Glow

The body oil

1. Step out of the bath or shower and leave your skin damp.
2. Warm a few drops of oil between your palms. It pours pale and silky.
3. Smooth it over your arms, legs and shoulders until it is absorbed. It glides on and sinks in fast.
4. Give it a minute before you dress, so the glow can settle. The finish is soft and satiny, with no tacky film.

The body cream

The Rejuvenating Body Cream is rich and soft, made with Kalahari melon seed, jojoba and avocado oils. It helps skin hold moisture and feel smooth. The 16 fl oz jar is the larger half of the pair.

When skin is very dry, smooth the cream on first and layer the oil over it. You get the cream's softness with the oil's glow on top, both in the same scent.

When to Use It

Straight after bathing, while skin is still damp. In a Rosewood Body Glow routine, it is the last thing you do after the water and the first before you dress.

The order is simple: bathe, cream if your skin is very dry, oil, then a minute before clothes.

What to Pair It With

Hawaiian Black Lava Body Caviar Body Scrub with Charcoal

This one goes first. Sea salt and organic sugar buff away dull surface skin, so the glow that follows lands on skin that looks radiant. Stir the jar until the oils and crystals come together as a thick paste. Massage it over wet skin from the neck down, then rinse with warm water.

Pat dry and go straight to the oil while skin is still damp. The scrub carries Kalahari melon seed oil, as the Rosewood cream does, and leaves skin feeling polished and cushioned, never tight.

Rosewood and Litsea Cubeba Imperial Jade Body Oil

The oil from the set is also sold on its own. It works for the days you want glow and scent without the cream, and it is the same oil, used the same way.

New Imperial Jade Body Oil

This is the same idea in other scents: Hawaiian Black Lava, Moroccan Fig and Bergamot, or Violet and Bergamot. Mongongo gives it a dry, silky touch, and it sinks in without a tacky film. The Hawaiian Black Lava oil matches the scrub, so you can carry one scent from shower to skin on the days you want something other than rosewood.

Pro Tips

• Damp, not dry. The oil is made for skin straight out of the water. That is when it glides furthest and the scent opens in the warmth.
• Give it the minute. Let the oil settle before you dress. The glow sets, and the finish stays satiny instead of on your clothes.
• Carry the scent further. Rosewood and Litsea Cubeba also comes as a body wash, a candle and a room spray. Layered, the scent follows you from the shower to the room you dress in.

Rosewood Body Glow, the Imperial Jade oil and the 16 fl oz cream together, is $97 in our shop.
