Primally Pure Blue Tansy Body Oil
This is a lightweight, fast-absorbing body oil designed to lock in moisture while calming and illuminating the skin. I like it for daily use when you want hydration and glow without a heavy or greasy finish, especially after showering.

What I Like
I like the carrier oil blend here. Coconut, kukui, argan, almond, and pomegranate oils give lightweight hydration while still supporting the skin barrier and providing antioxidant benefits.
Blue tansy is a standout ingredient. It’s often chosen for its calming properties and the naturally occurring compounds (like chamazulene) that give it that deep blue color and soothing reputation.
The formula is minimal and transparent, without petroleum-derived ingredients, silicones, synthetic fragrance, or unnecessary fillers, which aligns well with a low-tox body care routine.
EWG rating (EWG analyzer): 1.
Things to Keep in Mind
This contains essential oils (blue tansy, geranium, peppermint), so there is a noticeable natural aroma. If you’re very fragrance-sensitive or prefer unscented body care, this may not be the best everyday option.
It contains sweet almond oil. If nut allergies or sensitivities are a concern, this is important to note.
As with most body oils, it works best applied to slightly damp skin to help seal in moisture rather than used on completely dry skin.
Sensitive Skin & Pregnancy Considerations
If your skin is reactive, patch testing is a good idea before full-body use.
If you’re pregnant or nursing and prefer to limit essential oil exposure, you may choose to use this sparingly or opt for a fragrance-free body oil instead, depending on your comfort level.
Essential oil transparency: essential oils can carry trace contaminants depending on sourcing and processing. I prioritize brands that test for purity and take steps to minimize contaminants and impurities whenever possible.
