While in Bintan, I bought this massage oil(SGD$19.90 for 100ml). It contains virgin coconut oil, essential oil of ginger, patchouli and lemon. The package says it energizes and revives. Unless you know about oils you can only guess how this concoction of oils can benefit you.

Virgin coconut oil- many health benefits for the skin. It it colourless and cold pressed to ensure that potent benefits remain intact.

Ginger- is a warming oil, good to ease muscle tension and discomfort.

Patchouli- Traditionally used in South East Asian countries as a moth repellent. Now mostlty used in aromatherapy, it can evoke a feeling of gentle clarity and harmonious flow of emotional energy. Patchouli is also an aphrodisiac oil.
Lemon - Uplifting and cleansing
Gave husband a massage with this oil to ease his knotted muscles. He slept like a baby afterwards.
