[SWAF-Potluck] massage oil suggestions

[lovelibby at hushmail.me]

Hey gang,
I need a bit of advice here, please.
I usually use coconut oil for my massages, sometimes with a bit of raw
sesame oil in it, which is really good for the skin, accordingto
Ayurveda (ancient Indian health sciences).
Lately I've been using just coconut oil. Sometimes I also use some
lavender oil and/or tea tree oil if I feel I need an extra bit of
sterility/anti- bacterialness.  I've been doing that quite a bit more
lately, and have probably been doing more sessions than normal here in
Toronto. 
So recently I've developed a rash on my chest, and doing a bit of
research on the internet, it's possible the rash is from any or all
three of these things - the coconut oil, the lavender oil, or the tea
tree oil. I also read that lavender oil and tea tree oil combined can
cause a reaction. It's also possible my coconut oil is not of the best
quality. It has a VERY strong toasted coconut scent, like I'm making
macaroons! Although I've used lower end coconut oil before without a
problem.
The other possibility is that people in Toronto might have more or
different bacteria on their skin than in Vancouver, and my skin is not
liking the body slide on their skin. But still, the rash is mainly on
my chest, and I always make them take showers before a session
(learned that a while back through a rash, too).
So my question is, what other oils do you use for your massages?
And what other essential oils or similar do you use for extra
cleanliness?
I can't stop working but I really need to clear this rash up!!
Any other thoughts, ideas or suggestions are also welcome.
Thanks alot!Libby
