How I Use Ocean Caviar Firming Oil on My Chest (and Hands!)

Okay, let’s be real for a second — how many of us religiously take care of our face, but completely forget about our chest and hands?

🙋 I did too — for years. I’d slather all my “fancy” stuff on my face, tap delicately under my eyes, maybe dab a little on the neck if I was feeling generous. Meanwhile, my chest and hands were screaming for help like “Ma’am, we exist!”

Turns out, your chest and hands are two of the first places to show signs of aging. And if you’re someone who loves the sun (or just enjoys sitting near a window), they’ll start telling your secrets real quick.

So now? I give them just as much love as my face. Especially now that it’s sleeveless season — when the necklines dip, the sleeves disappear, and suddenly you’re like, Wait... when did my chest start looking like crepe paper?!

🤔 So… why do these areas matter?

Because they’re sneaky.
They age just like our face — sometimes faster.
They get just as much sun — sometimes more.
And when they don’t get the same TLC, it shows. 👀

Here’s what finally made me pay attention: I saw a photo of myself from a wedding a few years ago (I was wearing this gorgeous sleeveless navy dress), and all I could see was how dry and crinkly my chest looked compared to my glowing face. I zoomed in, then zoomed right out. 😩

From that moment on, the chest and hands joined my skincare lineup. Here’s how I keep things soft, smooth, and glowy — without adding a million extra steps:

🚿 Step 1: After the shower = prime time

Right after I get out of the shower, I pat my skin dry — not all the way dry, just enough. Damp skin is the perfect canvas for oils because it helps lock in that moisture. Think of it like sealing in all the good stuff.

💧 Step 2: 2–3 drops is all you need

I use about two to three drops of our Ocean Caviar Firming Oil and warm it between my palms. Then I gently press it into my chest — I go from collarbone to just above the bust. And I don’t forget the sides! That area near your armpits sees sun, too.

I always move in upward motions — it helps with circulation. (Plus, gravity’s already doing its job — no need to help it along).

✋ Step 3: Hands get the leftovers (and sometimes more)

I usually have a little oil left on my hands after doing my chest — and I rub that in immediately. Your hands are always exposed, always working, and usually the first place to dry out.

If they’re feeling especially rough, I’ll go back and add an extra drop or two just for them.

Pro tip: Rub some into your cuticles. Thank me later. 😉

🌞🌙 Bonus: Do it in the morning or before bed

You can absolutely use the oil in the morning — it gives your skin a soft glow that looks beautiful with sleeveless tops. But at night? That’s when the magic happens. Let it soak in while you sleep, and you’ll wake up with skin that feels buttery soft.

🧴 Another thing… don’t skip the sunscreen!

Raise your hand if you’ve ever put SPF on your face but skipped your chest 🙋 (Guilty. So guilty.)

Your décolleté and hands are sun magnets. They’re thin, sensitive, and super prone to sun spots. So even if it’s cloudy, protect them. (You know I had to sneak in a little sunscreen PSA!)

💭 One last thing to think about...

If you wouldn’t ignore your face… why ignore the skin that’s right next to it?

You deserve to glow all over — not just from the nose up.

So next time you're doing your routine, take a second and check in:
☑️ Did I get my neck?
☑️ My chest?
☑️ My hands?
If not, go back and give them the love they deserve. 💖

💬 Real talk

If your neck and chest feel like they’ve been ignored lately, it’s okay. It’s never too late to give them a little love. Even just a few days of consistent TLC with the Ocean Caviar Firming Oil, and I promise — they’ll start to feel (and look) better.

So here’s your gentle reminder from me:
Don’t stop your skincare routine at your jawline. Your décolleté and hands deserve that glow too.

Now go forth and rock those sleeveless tops with confidence! 💃🏻
