The Non-Perfume-y Oil for Mellow Massages Sunflower seed oil, high in omega-6 fatty acids, has gotten a bad reputation in the realm of cooking. But all those "bad" fats that make it kind of awful for your diet make it fantastic for your skin. Rich in antioxidant vitamin E, sunflower seed oil makes an inexpensive, lightly hydrating massage oil. Plus, as one of the more mildly scented oils, it doesn't present an issue for allergy sufferers or the fragrance-sensitive (like my discriminating boss).
DIY: Go to town giving yourself a rub-down. If you like a stronger scent, add a bit of essential oil. Eucalyptus and lavender promote relaxation, while oils like jasmine and lemon are uplifting.
