im trying to find some massage oils/lotions that wont make my back break out..
the ones i find aggrivate my skin so bad, i eather get itchy or acne flare up on my upper back. ive tried washing it off soon after but that doesnt help too much.
do you ladies know of any products?

have you tried just a plain, natural oil? almond, grapeseed, jojoba, safflower, etc... are all natural, and unless you have a nut allergy, shouldn't make you itch (it should do the opposite...i use almond oil as a moisturizer). then, if that doesn't irritate your skin, you can try adding in some natural essential oils if you want to add fragrance.

check the ingredients in your oils, it's possible that something synthetic is irritating your skin, like mineral oil, perfumes, perservatives, etc...

Some natural oils don't bother my skin. Coconut oil, hemp and almond oil all seem to be just fine for me. I like the Burt's Bees baby apricot oil massage oil.
