Shimmering body oils and mists are a celebrity secret to glowing, radiant skin. A small amount of body mist applied to the face, neck, shoulders, and collarbone can enhance your features and make you shine. These oils also have anti-aging properties and will keep your skin moisturized throughout the day.
If you want to achieve that dewy, glowing look, try this simple recipe:
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons of golden pink mica powder (cosmetic grade) or powdered highlighter
- 1 teaspoon of contouring powder
- 3 teaspoons of coconut oil
- 7-10 drops of your favorite essential oil
- 4 teaspoons of toner
- 2 teaspoons of distilled water
Instructions
- In a 60ml glass bottle, combine 4 teaspoons of toner and 6-7 drops of essential oil.

Notes
- Perform a patch test on a small area of your arm and wait 24 hours to ensure you don’t have any reactions.
- Choose oils that are suitable for sensitive skin.
- Exfoliate and remove unwanted hair before applying the shimmering oil for best results.
- Remember to apply sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher. Wait for it to dry completely before spraying the shimmer oil on desired areas.
- Always shake the bottle well before use to ensure the ingredients are mixed properly.
- Spray the oil on your arms, collarbones, chest, and legs for an even and maximum shimmer effect.
- Store your shimmer body mist in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat.
