The 8 best dry body oils for residue-free moisturizing
I love playing the long game in my beauty routine. That means I’m not necessarily looking for products that give instant results. Instead, I’m interested in using time-tested things like retinol, peptideand the most important, sunscreen. Sure, these may not provide instant gratification, but they offer lasting benefits that accumulate with age.
I have a similar approach when it comes to body care. For me, daily moisturizing is one of the simplest, easiest ways to take care of my skin and keep it firm, plump and supple. That’s why I’m loyal to using lotion And body oil (sometimes simultaneously—put first layer under layer after, and I promise you the smoothest, softest skin).
I’m no stranger to thick and greasy formulas, and honestly, I don’t mind them, because they tend to offer the most intense moisturizing benefits. However, I understand when people say they want something without residue. After all, if you’re someone who likes to shower in the morning and will get dressed right after applying body oil, then you want something that soaks into your skin quickly. (Is there anything worse than trying to pull your jeans over greasy feet?) That’s where dry body oils come in. This body oil is light, absorbs quickly and often leaves a translucent film on the skin. Pandemic? It won’t leave your skin feeling like an oil stain. Keep scrolling to see the eight best body oils in the game.
