15 Ways To Use Avocado On Your Body

January 8, 2023 by Shellie Wilson Leave a Comment

This roundup is focused on different ways to use nursing avocado on your skin. I am sure at some point we have all had smashed avocado on toast? well, how about smashing that avocado onto your body. Avocados are high in fats and contain vitamins E and C, which are important for healthy skin. Avocados are rich in Biotin, a B vitamin that contributes to healthy skin strong nails, and thick, luscious hair, you will commonly see avocado oils being used in hair products. We have included a few hair recipes below for you to give yourself a hair treatment.  Avocado helps to improve scalp conditions and provides a healthy environment for hair to grow, so make sure you rub it down deep onto your scalp.

So what about your skin? Avocado oil is super rich in folates which stimulate collagen production in the skin, leading to a much-improved appearance and elasticity. Just adding rich moisture will improve the appearance of your skin and help with oily breakouts. Avocado oil can be used directly out fo the bottle as a cleanser and moisturizer, but I love these recipes below for some extra zing to my face masks.

Witch’s Brew Halloween Body Scrub – A Spooky DIY for Glowing Halloween Skin

When October hits and the pumpkins roll out, it’s the perfect time to stir up a little bubbling brew—for your skin! This Witch’s Brew Body Scrub is a fun, fizzy, exfoliating scrub made with natural ingredients and a hint of Halloween magic. It sloughs off dead skin, boosts circulation, and leaves you silky smooth, just in time for costume parties or cozy nights in.

Whether you’re prepping for a haunted house event or simply want a little pampering after handing out candy all night, this scrub is your go-to potion.

Why You’ll Love This DIY Halloween Scrub

  • Looks like a bubbling cauldron (especially in black or purple jars) 
  • Gently exfoliates and moisturizes dry autumn skin 
  • Scented with spooky-good essential oils (think patchouli, orange, and clove) 
  • Made with simple pantry staples 
  • Customisable with shimmer, color, or even candy eyeballs (for visual fun—not for use!) 

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup sugar (white or brown) 
  • ¼ cup coconut oil (or grapeseed oil) 
  • 1 tbsp activated charcoal (for a spooky black color) 
  • ½ tsp green mica or cosmetic-grade shimmer (optional cauldron glow) 
  • 5 drops orange essential oil 
  • 3 drops clove essential oil 
  • 2 drops patchouli or cinnamon essential oil 
  • Optional: ½ tsp vanilla extract (for a sweet twist) 
  • Optional topping: candy eyeballs or star confetti (for display only!) 

Instructions:

  1. In a bowl, combine sugar, charcoal, and mica powder. Stir until evenly mixed. 
  2. Add the coconut oil and stir to create a wet, sandy texture. 
  3. Drop in the essential oils and vanilla extract, if using. Mix well. 
  4. Spoon into a small jar or Halloween-themed container. If gifting, top with a candy eyeball or wrap with a “Witch’s Brew” label. 

How to Use:

In the shower, scoop a tablespoon and gently massage into damp skin in circular motions. Avoid the face (due to charcoal), and rinse thoroughly. Follow with body butter or lotion for spellbinding softness.

Gifting Idea:

Pair it with a “Batty Bath Bomb” or “Pumpkin Spice Lip Balm” in a little Halloween basket. Great for party favours, teacher gifts, or seasonal markets!
