The sun is out, and that means everything from bared arms to sandals, midi and mini dresses. That meaning, it’s your skin’s time to shine. But if you’re someone who struggles with rough or dry skin, then that “shine” may not come without help. Luckily, there are a wealth of moisturizing body care products on the market, and in the chance that you’ve yet to find a moisturizer that does the trick for you, or you’re looking for something to pair it with for an extra nudge, consider trying out one of the many body oil options known to leave you with glowy hydrated skin.
There’s a never ending debate over body lotions versus body oils, and the truth is, every body is different, and there will hardly ever (if ever) be a one size fits all. That said, many people love body oils for its light weight textures, using it alone, paired with oil, in the shower with an exfoliating pad, or right after the shower before bed. With many boasting healing ingredients such as algae oil and Vitamin C, or even offering aesthetic benefits such as a sparkly glow in the case of body oils from brands such as Fenty Beauty and Patrick Ta, it’s no wonder they’re a hit on the market. There’s no better way to shop body care than to check out what others have vetted, and reviews don’t lie. According to consumer feedback, the 10 body oils below are sure to give you a hydrated, summertime glow year round.

Osea Undaria Algae Body Oil
"I have really dry skin and I love to shower before bed and slather on bath oil. My old brand felt great right after, but by morning my skin was flaky again. Not so with Osea. After many uses, my skin has actually changed, for the better! Iâve become addicted to that lemony smell."

SKNMUSE Body Oil
"First of all, this smells so good â like a little bit of baby powder mixed with something sultry. It really makes you glow, and your skin will look so healthy! I'll be purchasing the larger size once I'm finished."

Kadalys Radiant Precious Oil
"This oil worked wonders on my dry elbows and heels. It left my skin very soft, and had a light pleasant banana scent. I added this to my dry forehead and cheeks for relief, and it worked wonders as I added this to my hair for hydration and shine. I'll recommend!"

54THRONES Minona Glow Body Oil
"I really love a good body oil, and this one is AAAAAMAZING!!! It's rich, moisturizing, and smells warm and sweet. It doesn't hurt that jasmine and neroli are two of my favorite scents. As it states in the product description, it is best to use this oil when your body is still moist. Applying this oil is a real pampering experience, and it's great for self-care!! The only bad thing – I need a BIGGER bottle!"

Patrick Ta Major Glow Body Oil
"If you're looking for a serious glow, this is it, and it doesn't take much. I like the scent of the product, but if you use too much, it can be a little overpowering. But luckily, I find that you really don't need to use much of this product to get the desired effect, which is nice because it makes me think that the bottle will last a long time."

Bio-Oil Skincare Oil
"I used this for three days, and by the fourth day, I was floored. I noticed my skin had a tighter look and even looked younger. I am a huge skeptic on any beauty care items being miracle makeovers, but this is pretty darn close!"

Herbivore Jasmine Glowing Hydration Body Oil
"This oil has helped my skin look and stay hydrated longer compared to when I use just my body lotion. The smell is subtle, and it absorbs into your skin in a few minutes. I'd definitely buy again."

Nécessaire The Body Oil
"I really like the Nécessaire line, but this has been a standout out for healing a spot of fall and winter eczema on my legs. This body oil helped heal my skin in three days, and is keeping it protected."

Prima Beyond Body Oil
"I love this body oil. I came back to purchase my third bottle. It's extremely hydrating (especially when layered under the Prima body butter). I love the earthy-citrusy scent, and I can literally feel the tension in my muscles melt away when I use it. I'm buying two bottles at a time."

Fenty Beauty By Rihanna Body Lava Body Luminizer
"I love this product, and I wear it every time i go out for an event. It doesn't feel nasty on the skin, or leave excessive fall out on the floor or clothing. It doesn't stain clothes either. Don't think twice about buying it."
