I love a good body oil and its something I've used for years. I love applying after a bath so normally only once a week as I shower every day and then on a weekend when I have more time I take a bubble bath. Its such a treat to be honest. I put the kids to bed, run a bath and relax. Of course, I take the opportunity to have a full pamper session and use a lot of products including a body oil.
These are in no particular order and some are highstreet and very affordable and others are quite luxurious and indulgent.
1. Bio Oil
This has to be a proven favourite of mine as I used it during two pregnancies and until this day I do not have one stretch mark on my body! I used it quite religiously during my pregnancies and literally over my whole body (well as far as I could reach!!). It feels really warm and silky soft when applied to the skin and is rapidly absorbed. I really love this oil. It is a specialist skincare oil specifically designed to target scars, stretch marks, uneven skin tone, ageing and dehydrated skin. It works a treat and it should be applied twice daily for a minimum of 3 months to really notice results and if pregnant, use twice daily from the beginning of the second trimester. It can be purchased from the pharmacy and is very reasonable in price. It can be used on face and body, is suitable for sensitive skin and contains many vitamins including A & E and also Calendula, Lavender, Rosemary and Chamomile oils.
2. MOR Body Oil
The thing I love about this body oil by MOR is its Marshmallow scent! It smells so good! The packaging draws me in with a gorgeous glass bottle and pink outer box. It contains moisturising Avocado and Wheat Germ oils. It is a very light oil and great for hydrating the skin leaving a silky velvet finish. Its a light oil which comes in a spray bottle. Mango and Peach extracts leaves a delicate scent on the skin. It gives moisture to the skin and a renewed radiance which feels amazing!
After a fine spritz, the oil can be gently massaged into the skin leaving it gorgeously smooth. Top Notes are White Carnation and Marshmallow; Middle Notes are Jasmine, Althaea Fower, English Rose and Base Notes are Sugar, Madagascan Vanilla and Snow Musk.
3. Johnson's Baby Oil
A very mild oil for the skin and lets face it, if its good enough for baby skin then that in itself proves
how amazing it is and it is clinically proven for its mildness. It is pure, mild and gentle and can be used all over the skin and contains Aloe Vera extract and Vitamin E acetate. Perfect ingredients for moisturising the skin. It is only mildly perfumed and absorbs into my skin quickly. Only a small amount is needed as a little goes a long way. It is not at all sticky and can be used on all skin types. A firm favourite for my baby and me.
4. FarmHouse Fresh Agave Nectar Ageless Body Oil.
A gorgeous lightweight body oil which smells beautiful! A powerful mix of extracts including Sandalwood, Barley and Amurense Bark significantly improves skin's rate of water loss, bringing a radiant, hydrated and less wrinkled appearance. Nourish your skin with a spritz of this oil after showering or taking a bath and it will nourish your skin and leave it feeling dewy and soft. This oil is suitable for Vegans and is 96% natural, Paraben and Sulfate free. Another luxurious oil in a beautiful glass bottle! Can you tell I'm a sucker for packaging?
5. Kosme Anti-Aging Beauty Oil
Last but not least, I recently discovered this brand and fell in love with its Anti-aging Beauty Oil for Body and Hair. I have been using the scent Patchouli, Vanilla and Bergamont and it smells good enough to eat! Your skin is sublimated and this oil contains different ingredients which target different areas. For nourishing the body it contains Camellia. Cranberries for protective care. Jojoba for anti-aging and Apricot to illuminate the skin and hair. It also contains Grape Seed which is an anti-oxidant. Together all of these ingredients work wonders for your skin and hair. It can be applied daily to see quicker results. It is 98% natural and preservative free, paraben free, mineral oil free and silicone free. A beautiful luxurious oil!
If you are confused about which oils to try or are scared to use them like I used to be, then please give them a go, try them out - your skin will be so happy!!
