Writer: Snow JaramilloSnow Jaramillo

At Body By Snow Jay, we believe in the healing power of nature. From our Whipped Body Butter to Yoni Steaming and Hair Oil, we focus on ingredients that come straight from nature—packed with powerful nutrients your body craves. But does science back up these natural remedies? Absolutely!


In this blog, we’ll dive into scientific research that highlights the effectiveness of natural ingredients. We’ll explore how the products we use and recommend support your overall wellness. Get ready to discover how these powerful remedies not only feel good but work—with real scientific proof to back it up.


1. The Healing Power of Mango Butter


Mango butter is a key ingredient in many of our products, including our Whipped Body Butter. It’s packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and fatty acids, which provide intense moisture for the skin.


Scientific Insight:

Research shows that mango butter is high in vitamins A and E, which are known to promote skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of scars. A 2017 study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology found that mango butter can improve skin hydration, protect against oxidative stress, and even promote wound healing (source: Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology). These properties make it an excellent choice for dry, irritated, and aging skin.


2. Sweet Almond Oil: A Miracle for Skin and Hair


Sweet Almond Oil, another powerhouse in our Body By Snow Jay line, is revered for its versatility. It’s rich in monounsaturated fatty acids, vitamin E, and antioxidants, all of which help nourish and protect the skin and hair.


Scientific Insight:

A study published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences highlights the benefits of almond oil for its anti-inflammatory and moisturizing effects. The study found that almond oil helps improve skin barrier function, reducing water loss and promoting hydration (source: International Journal of Molecular Sciences). For your hair, sweet almond oil can reduce frizz, add shine, and nourish the scalp to encourage growth.


3. The Benefits of Yoni Steaming


Yoni steaming, one of the signature services at Body By Snow Jay, is often met with skepticism, but research shows it may have real benefits for vaginal health.


Scientific Insight:

A study published in the Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology suggests that herbal steam baths may help with increased blood circulation and promote relaxation of pelvic muscles, which could relieve discomfort. Herbs like chamomile and lavender, both used in our yoni steaming services, are known for their calming and anti-inflammatory properties, which could help soothe the uterus and vaginal area (source: Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology). Many women report feeling more relaxed and balanced after a yoni steam, making it a holistic way to support vaginal health.


4. Jojoba Oil: The Natural Wonder for Hydration


Jojoba oil, used in our Extreme CREAM and other products, is a liquid wax that mimics the skin’s natural oils. It’s known for its ability to deeply hydrate without clogging pores.


Scientific Insight:

A 2013 study in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences demonstrated that jojoba oil acts as an emollient, which means it helps to lock in moisture while also promoting skin healing. It’s rich in vitamin E, which has both anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and scars (source: International Journal of Molecular Sciences). Jojoba oil is especially beneficial for sensitive skin, as it helps balance sebum production.


5. The Wonders of Tea Tree Oil


Tea Tree Oil, a favorite for skincare and haircare, is known for its antiseptic and antifungal properties.


Scientific Insight:

Research has shown that tea tree oil is highly effective against acne-causing bacteria. A 2015 study published in the Indian Journal of Dermatology found that tea tree oil was as effective as benzoyl peroxide, a common acne treatment, in reducing acne lesions and pimples, with fewer side effects like dryness or irritation (source: Indian Journal of Dermatology). Additionally, tea tree oil has antifungal properties, which can help with scalp conditions like dandruff.
