How to Get Glowing Summer Skin with Body Oil (Without Feeling Greasy)

You know that effortless, radiant skin glow that seems to follow some people all summer? The secret might just be in your post-shower routine. Body oils are the summer skin essential you didn’t know you needed—lightweight, fast-absorbing, and full of glow-boosting benefits.

Here’s how to get the most out of your body oil, plus our favorite blends to keep you looking like golden hour all day long.

start with fresh and damp skin

Apply your body oil right after a shower, while your skin is still slightly damp. This locks in moisture and helps the oil absorb better—no greasy residue, just glow.

use the right amount

You don’t need much! A few drops go a long way. Warm the oil in your hands and massage it in with circular motions. Focus on areas that get dry or dull, like elbows, knees, and shoulders.

let it soak in before dressing

Give it a minute or two to sink in—this lets the nutrients absorb and helps avoid transfer to your clothes.

why you should choose our body oil

Our oils are formulated to deliver silky softness without heaviness. Whether you’re prepping for a night out, heading to the beach, or just want to feel good in your skin, they’re your secret weapon for that fresh-from-vacation glow.

bonus tip

Use body oil as a subtle natural highlighter—apply a small dab to collarbones, shoulders, or shins for extra dimension.
