A cool skincare hack that's perfect for winter skin
Struggling with dry winter skin? Here's a great tip to keep your skin hydrated, soft and smooth.
As winter approaches and we feel the toll cold weather takes on our skin, it's good to remember that skincare doesn't have to be expensive. Sometimes, it's about doing the small things to get the best results.
A local skincare content creator, the Skintologist, shared a cool winter skincare hack. Her tip not only repurposes a used roll-on bottle, but also helps you easily hydrate your skin with your favourite oils.
She removes the ball from the roll-on bottle and thoroughly cleans and sterilises the bottle.
She then combines her favourite oils with a carrier oil to make a body oil roller.
This simple hack makes it easier to care for your skin. The oil roller allows you to roll the oil onto your body, which is faster than applying lotion. Plus, oil moisturises on a deeper level than lotion.

@theskintologist DIY Body Oil hack 🙌🏼 You HAVE to try this! I can’t believe I haven’t done this before. Recycle your deodorant rollers and get creative! I’ve made a body oil roller with essential oils as well as one with a body shimmer in it. These are so great for dry skin or castor oil compresses! Do you have any other ideas of what we could do with these? @Johnson's Baby ID #DIYbodyoil #beautydiy #skincareDIY #organicdeodorant #skintologist #skincaretips ♬ original sound - theskintologist
