Should You Oil Your Belly Button for Clearer Skin on Your Face?
The question then is: Why not apply the oil, you know, to your face?
My own skin is thinned, maybe permanently, from a too-strong, too-long topical steroid prescription. As a result, I can’t so much as look at a bottle of exfoliating acid without breaking out, and my daily routine is simple: I cleanse with the aforementioned manuka honey, pat on a bit of jojoba oil, and that’s basically it.
The first thing to note about UMA’s Beauty Boosting Oil is that it is tiny. When it arrived, I double-checked to make sure I didn’t accidentally order the sample size. A little does go a long way, though. Only one drop is needed per night, every night, which effectively fills my navel cavity to the brim.
Night one, I wasn’t quite sure what to do with it—lie down and let it soak in? Rub the oil over my abs? So I consulted UMA’s site for guidance. “Gently massage the skin around the belly button using your finger and thumb, using a gentle pinching motion for about one minute,” it read. “Use a small ball of cotton on the belly button to prevent staining of clothes. Leave on overnight.” I massaged, pinched, and since I’m not precious about my pj’s, skipped the cotton ball and went to bed.
