Over my years as a beauty content creator, I’ve tried many body oils. Whilst there are so many great options out there, they haven’t left a lasting impression on me.
As a soon to be bride, I’ve been trying to work on my body care routine, looking for products which are easy to use, make my skin look flawless but also have all the skincare benefits.
Recently, I combined my two favourite body oils, the L’Occitane Almond Supple Skin Oil and the NUXE Huile Prodigieuse Shimmering Multi-Purpose Dry Oil, and realised 2 things:
1. These products are so iconic and highly regarded by the beauty girlies, but why have I never seen anyone combine the two?
2. Where has this combo been my whole life?
Both products are incredible on their own, but together, the glow is unmatched (with a heap of skin benefits!)
Step 1: L’Occitane Almond Supple Skin Oil
Fast Facts:
- Made with Almond Oil, Omega 9 Fatty Acids, Squalane and Vitamin E, offering deep hydration, whilst soothing and firming your skin.
- Lightweight formula which absorbs instantly, so it’s perfect for everyday use.
- A delicate almond scent, which is delicious on its own or can be layered beautifully with other scents.
- Easy to use, just spray and rub in.
- Gentle on the skin, so it works well for us sensitive skin girlies.
The L'Occitane Almond Supple Skin Oil 100mL is highly praised and well-loved, and I too will never stop advocating for this product.
I tend to get lazy with my body care (especially in winter, when I need it the most) however, I refuse to skip this product.
Its' easy-to-use spray nozzle makes application so quick and effortless. The non-greasy formula also makes this body oil great for everyday use.
This will always be my first step as it deeply moisturises my skin, making it perfect to layer additional products on top (but still enough on its own).
Enriched with incredible ingredients such as Squalane, Vitamin E and of course Almond Oil, this product helps enhance your skin’s elasticity and provides up to 48 hours of hydration.
Bonus points if you pair this with the L'Occitane Almond Shower Oil 250ml beforehand.
It’s indulgent and SO good for your skin, you’ll wonder why you did not start using this earlier!
We’re only on step one, but let me tell you this product alone brings ALL the glow.
Step 2: NUXE Huile Prodigieuse Shimmering Multi-Purpose Dry Oil
Fast Facts:
- Multipurpose product.
- Unique dry touch texture.
- Formulated with botanical oils, but still gentle for sensitive skin.
- Nourishing, lightweight and non-greasy formula.
- Protects the skin against pollution and environmental aggressors.
French pharmacy beauty products feel so luxurious, and the NUXE Huile Prodigieuse Shimmering Multi Purpose Dry Oil (50ml) is exactly that.
This is a multipurpose product which can be used on the face for an added bronze, on hair for extra shine and nourishment, and of course on the body for all the glow. This product is the ultimate touch of elegance in a bottle.
Whilst these are a must on my arms, I also focus extra product on my décolletage and shoulders for added dimension and radiance (especially when I’m wearing a gorgeous open neckline).
It’s wonderful as a last step because its leaves the most gorgeous bronze sheen, layering perfectly with the L’Occitane Almond Supple Skin Oil. Since it’s a dry oil formula, the Huile Prodigieuse also does not leave your skin greasy or sticky.
The combination of almond from the L’Occitane Almond Supple Skin Oil, and notes of magnolia and vanilla from NUXE makes this body oil combo extra addictive.
Not only are you glowing to the nines with this body oil duo, but you’re also giving your skin what it needs.
