Why Herbal Infused Oils Hit Different: A Nigerian Guide to Glowing Skin, Healthy Hair & Better Food

No be juju, na science.

Herbal infused oils are light, plant-powered oils that absorb fast and actually feed your skin and scalp—without the greasy feel. We make them by slowly steeping real herbs from our farm into nourishing oils.

What Are Herbal Infused Oils?

Herbal infused oils are base oils (like sunflower or similar plant oils) that have been gently steeped with dried herbs over time. The plant’s soothing and protective compounds move into the oil, so every drop carries more than just “slip” and shine.

They sit in a sweet spot:

Gentler than essential oils (no need to dilute again before normal use).
More functional than plain oils, because the herb brings its own benefits.

Why They Absorb Better

Compared to heavy oils and greasy pomades, a well-made infused oil:

Has a lighter texture, so it sinks in instead of sitting on top.
Carries plant actives in every drop from the infused herbs.
Lets your skin and scalp “drink” it in—benefit without the thick residue.

That’s why people say it feels different from just “oiling” the skin or scalp.

For Your Skin: Calm + Glow Squad

Your skin has different moods: sensitive, stressed, oily, dull. Think of our infused oils for skin as a small squad you can rotate instead of one “do it all” bottle.

Marigold – daily rescue for sensitive / eczema-ish skin

Marigold Infused Oil is that gentle friend your skin can trust.

Great when you’re dealing with:

Heat rash or “eczema-ish” flare-ups
Red, irritated patches
Post-acne dark marks that need time and TLC

Use a few drops on damp skin after your water-based products.

Lavender moment – night-time wind-down for stressed skin & mind

Lavender is all about evening wind-down. We pair it with a carrier so it’s skin-friendly.

You can:

Add a tiny drop of Lavender Essential Oil into a spoon of your favourite infused oil (like marigold or lemongrass).
Use that mix as a night facial oil or neck/shoulder massage oil.

It’s especially nice on nights when your skin feels tight and your mind is busy.

Lemongrass – glow oil for oily / acne-prone skin & dark spots

Lemongrass Infused Oil is your glow partner when you want light moisture, not heavy cream.

Helpful when you notice:

Oily, acne-prone T-zone
Pimples and clogged pores that hate thick products
Shiny nose/forehead but dull overall tone
Dark spots that need a gentle, consistent routine

Tap 2–3 drops into damp skin as the last step at night.

For Your Scalp: Cool + Calm Squad

Your scalp also has its own squad—cooling, itch-calming oils that work with braids, wigs, twists and silk presses.

Herbal infused oils for the scalp can:

Help ease dryness and itch
Make tight styles feel more comfortable
Support your edges when you treat them gently

Mint & co. – everyday fresh scalp care

Choose based on how much “AC” you like:

Everyday cooling comfort → Mint Infused Oil
Mild, sweet mint comfort → Spearmint Infused Oil
Extra strong tingle for tight styles → Menthol Mint Infused Oil

Simple routine

Section your hair (or gently lift braids/wig).
Put a few drops on your fingertips, not directly on your scalp.
Massage in small circles for 3–5 minutes, 2–3 times a week.

Pro tip: Oils work best on hair that isn’t bone-dry. Lightly mist with water first, then seal with a little oil.

For Your Food: Flavour + Fit-Fam Squad

Infused oils aren’t only for your vanity—they belong in your kitchen too.

Sweet Basil Infused Oil is made as a culinary finishing oil:

Drizzle over roasted yam and plantain
Pour over salads and grilled fish
Add to pasta, stir-fries and veggies just before serving

Use it as a finishing touch, not for deep frying. You get flavour with a lighter feel.

How We Make Them (Farm-to-Bottle)

Grow & harvest herbs at the right time for flavour and potency.
Gently dry them to lock in goodness and prevent moisture problems.
Slow-infuse the herbs into a suitable base oil for several weeks.
Strain, rest and bottle in small batches so everything stays fresh.

No shortcuts, no magic tricks. Just patience and plants.

How to Choose & Use (Real-Life Routines)

A few ideas to get you started:

AM/PM face oil: 2–3 drops of marigold or lemongrass on damp skin after your water-based routine.
Scalp comfort: a few drops of mint-family oils massaged in 2–3 times a week.
Pre-shampoo treatment: oil your scalp and lengths 20–30 minutes before shampoo.
Kitchen: a splash of sweet basil oil over cooked food to make simple meals feel special.

You don’t need all of them at once. Start with the one that matches your biggest need—calm skin, cool scalp or flavourful food—and build from there.

Real-Life FAQs About Infused Oils

1. Are infused oils and essential oils the same thing?

No. Essential oils are highly concentrated plant extracts. You always have to dilute them before putting them on your skin.

Infused oils are gentler: the herb is steeped in a base oil, so you get a softer, ready-to-use product for everyday skin and scalp care.

You can layer them: for example, add a tiny drop of Lavender Essential Oil into a spoon of infused oil if you want extra scent at night.

2. Will infused oils make me greasy?

They shouldn’t—if you use small amounts.

On skin: 2–3 drops on damp skin is usually enough.
On scalp: focus on fingertips and massage in; don’t pour directly from the bottle onto your head.
On food: use as a finishing drizzle, not a deep-fry oil.

If you feel greasy, you probably need less product, not a different oil.

3. Can I use infused oils on my face?

Yes, many people do.

For easily-upset or delicate skin, start with Marigold Infused Oil.
For oily or acne-prone skin, try Lemongrass Infused Oil in small amounts.

Always patch-test on a small area first and keep using your sunscreen in the daytime.

4. Can I use infused oils under braids, wigs or silk presses?

Yes—just be gentle.

Use drops, not squeezes.
Focus on parts and edges.
Keep a regular wash routine so there’s no heavy buildup.
Choose lighter options like Lemongrass Infused Oil if your hair gets weighed down easily.

5. How long do infused oils last?

Kept in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, most infused oils are best used within 6–12 months.

Close the bottle tightly after use.
Don’t dip wet fingers into the oil.
If it ever smells “off” or looks cloudy in a strange way, it’s time to let it go.
