Body oil has always gotten a pretty bad wrap. Thick, old formulas used to take forever to sink in and more often than not would stain your clothes if you put them on too soon. However, these days, there are so many lightweight, quick-drying formulas that adding a body oil to your routine in winter is a must.
As someone about to give birth to their first baby, I can confirm that I’ve spent the better part of the last eight months trying out a bunch of different body oils to find the best ones on the market. From Bangn Body’s new firming oil, to the ‘pregnancy’ oil you should consider adding to your routine full time, here are my faves.
The best body oils for winter
Bangn Body Firming Oil
The Bangn Body Firming Oil debuted to a waitlist of over 80,000, and after using it for a few weeks, I can see why. It’s such a luxurious, quick drying, non-greasy oil that’s loaded with a powerhouse blend of antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and vitamins A, D, E, and K. It was designed to deeply hydrate, nourish, and support your skin barrier, while improving skin’s elasticity and firmness.
Due Belly Glide Body Oil
Ignore the fact that it says pregnant body oil, you absolutely don’t have to be expecting a bub to lather your body in this one. I just discovered it because I am pregnant, but you best believe I’ll be using it long after I give birth.
It’s rich in antioxidants and a blend of luxurious plant oils, including sweet almond oil, jojoba seed oil, argan oil, rosehip oil, olive fruit oil, calendula flower extract, evening primrose oil, avocado oil, and marula seed oil, so it’ll leave your skin feeling soft, hydrated and deeply nourished.
Kora Organics Noni Glow Body Oil
Another brand of body oil I’ve been loving is Kora Organics Noni Glow Body Oil. It’s a lush, lightweight body oil that delivers lasting hydration while softening and nourishing the skin.
It’s a beautiful blend of noni fruit, rosehip, and sunflower seed oils that’s fast-absorbing without feeling greasy. It can also help reduce the appearance of stretch marks and skin imperfections.
L’Occitane Almond Supple Skin Oil
L’Occitane Almond Supple Skin Oil is made with natural ingredients that help to hydrate and protect the skin while leaving a subtle and sweet almond scent. The main ingredient is almond oil, which is rich in fatty acids and vitamin E, making it ideal for hydrating dry or dehydrated skin.
The best part about this body oil is that it’s fast-drying, so you can apply it before getting dressed and it won’t ruin your clothes.
Editor’s note: the in-shower oil version of this is HEAVENLY too.
Weleda Skin Food Ultra-Light Dry Oil
If the feeling of oil irks you, but your skin desperately needs hydration, then the Weleda Skin Food Ultra-Light Dry Oil is for you. It’s a non-greasy, quick-absorbing body oil mist that’ll leave your skin feeling softer, smoother, and glowing without the heaviness.
Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Body Firmeza Oil
For those of you who are already obsessed with Bum Bum cream, have you met the Body Firmeza Oil? It’s a deliciously scented body oil that’s non-greasy, lightweight, and hydrates the skin without leaving you feeling like all your pores are clogged.
Moroccanoil Dry Body Oil
Fans of Moroccan Oil’s signature scent will love this one. It’s a weightless, non-greasy body oil that’s loaded with antioxidant-rich argan, olive, and avocado oils to help soothe dry areas and improve overall skin texture and tone with each use.
Salt By Hendrix Bath To Body Oil
Finally, we have Salt by Hendrix’s restorative Bath to Body Oil. It’s a powerhouse of natural oils, full of protective antioxidants. The beauty of this one is that you can apply it to your skin or add it to your bath to help hydrate and nourish your skin barrier.
If you have zero interest in body oils, but are still looking for something to hydrate your skin during winter, we’ve found the best body lotions over here.
