Reviewing All My Favorite Body Oils

| ,

I’ve shared a look into my body care routines and all the products I use regularly on my mature skin. Body oils are not my favorite type of moisturizer but there are a handful I continuously use because I love how they make my skin feel. I typically prefer a lightweight watery body oil that absorbs quickly but there are a few that are richer in texture which really help to nourish my skin when it is exceptionally dry. If you are looking to add a body oil into your body care routine, here are my recommendations of different formulas to try:

Body Oil Reviews

Saltair Nourishing Body Oil

I love a nourishing body oil but prefer to have it absorb quickly so it doesn’t get on my clothes or pajamas at night. The Saltair Body Oil is incredibly rich but soaks in almost immediately leaving my skin moisturized but not greasy. Formulated with fermented saururus, kukui, cacay, moringa and squalane along with a biomimetic blend of plant actives that absorb easily and leave skin glowing. If you are new to using body oils, my favorite way to apply them is when my skin is still slightly damp after the shower. I like to massage in my body oil over my damp skin to trap in all the moisture.

OSEA Undaria Algae Body Oil

My first impression of the Osea Undaria Algae Body Oil is how thick it is which can be either a good or bad thing depending on how it absorbs into the skin. The scent isn’t overpowering though it dissipates after it is applied. I use a small amount to start with and rub it in. While it doesn’t absorb immediately, after a few minutes it soaked in and my skin felt SO soft and supple! My lower legs were quite dry and it instantly nourished them leaving my skin looking healthy and well moisturized.

Mutha Body Oil (discount code: MAREE15)

Much like the OSEA Body Oil, the Mutha Body Oil is very rich in texture and feel. I love to reach for this when my skin is very dry especially in the winter. Despite the thicker texture, it feels silky smooth to the touch. This leaves the most gorgeous glow to the skin with just a hint of fresh citrus notes. I also love the firming aspects of this body oil especially as someone with more mature skin that is starting to lose some elasticity.

Kiehl’s Creme de Corps Nourishing Dry Body Oil

A tad bit heavier than the Saltair Body Oil but still super lightweight and fast absorbing. This is a dry body oil so it feels much less oily than other formulations but still nourishes just as intensely. It has a spray nozzle applicator which is great if you don’t want your hands to get covered in oil. The scent is very sweet with hints of almond and vanilla though dissipates shortly after applying so you don’t have to worry about it interfering with your fragrances.

Colleen Rothschild The Ritual Body Oil

This body oil falls right in the middle in terms of thickness. It’s a beautifully silky body oil that feels richly nourishing at first but absorbs quickly once applied. The scent is a mix of citrus, bergamot and earthy green notes which really evokes a spa-like experience when applying.

1. As someone who has fallen in love with Korean skincare, I am so excited to see that Olive Young is coming to Sephora! Olive Young is Korea’s #1 beauty store that carries all the most popular Korean beauty products. They will be collaborating with Sephora to offer many of their top products to US customers via the Sephora site. I am already building my list of things I want to try!!

2. Gel cleansers can be hit or miss for my dry, mature skin. However, this new juicy gel cleanser is refreshing yet still nicely hydrating.

3. This hair growth supplement has been recommended to me over and over. I just finished my first bottle and already purchased a second! I love that there is now a formulation geared towards women over 45.

4. I’m a cream eyeshadow lover through and through but there are a few powder eye shadows I have remained loyal to. This multi-chromatic eyeshadow formula is one of the most beautiful textures ever. The shine payoff is stunning. My two favorite shades are Beam and Glaze.

5. These new colorful statement rings from Baublebar are everything! Under $40 and so cute!!

6. As a die hard fall lover, I am already thinking about new fall pieces to add to my closet. These brown suede slides are the perfect pre-fall shoe to invest in.

7. Barn jackets are still going to be going strong this fall/winter because they are so easy to style. I am obsessed with the various colorways of this jacket – especially the camel brown with navy blue collar. Classic and timeless!

8. A tweed jacket is a staple in my closet especially going into fall/winter. This new textured fringe blazer looks so much more expensive than it is. A great piece to style with denim on the weekends as well as with your favorite trousers to wear to work.

9. How perfect is this striped maxi tank dress?

10. I love discovering new jewelry brands especially ones that create bold pieces that really make a statement. I came across this brand and find so many of their pieces unique while still being incredibly wearable for everyday. I’m especially drawn to all their chunky rings!

Phlur Fragrance Review

Fragrance is part of my everyday routine just as my makeup and skincare is for me. I don’t have the largest fragrance collection but I definitely love having a variety of scents to choose from. And honestly, a good (or bad) scent can really impact my day. Spraying a scent I really love is like having mini dopamine hits all day long every time I smell it.

10 Summer Scents For Women

Switching up fragrances every few months is a great way to embrace a new season. I personally love to change out the scents I wear regularly depending on if it’s cold or warm outside. Warmer weather often calls for lighter, fresher scents, while cold weather can be the perfect time to explore deeper, richer fragrances with more intense notes.  The right fragrance can feel just as seasonal as your wardrobe. Choosing a new fragrance to try can feel overwhelming so in today’s post, I am going to share a guide to help you discover some of the best summer scents to wear throughout the season.
