16 Best Body Oils If You Want Ultimate Hydration

You know it's gotta be good if it has a near five-star rating with over 33,000 rave reviews. This drugstore option will have your skin looking radiant and feeling supple. It consists of a light oil extracted from pure white sesame seeds that lock in moisture. Customers say it has a tinge of a fragrance to it that smells luxurious. Use it right after the shower to plump up your damp, freshly cleaned skin, or add it to bath water to nourish the skin while soaking in the tub.

Opt for a spray body oil if you want minimal product on your hands. This one from Kiehl’s has a soothing vanilla and almond scent. It also consists of grape seed oil which is rich in essential fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamin E. Plus, it has squalane—aka a botanical lipid derived from olive that absorbs easily and deeply moisturizes the skin. All you gotta do is spritz it all over your body and work it into your skin until it's fully absorbed.

This one from Alo is loaded with luxe oils and botanicals! From amla (a Vitamin-C-rich superberry) to aloe vera to turmeric to argan oil, use it on your body, face, and hair for that all-around glow. And if you need more convincing, allow assistant shopping editor, Jasmine Hyman, to sing its praises. "When I'm having a full self-care night or an 'everything' shower, this body oil is always in the lineup," she said. "Seriously, one or two pumps of this formula deeply hydrate my extra-thirsty skin. I love adding this to my post-shave routine for some extra moisture after exfoliating, shaving, and moisturizing (my legs go through a lot!). Plus, it's not super sticky and absorbs into the skin nicely, unlike a bunch of other oil formulas I've tried!"

Specifically created to target scars and stretch marks (which, might I add, don't need to be removed!), this viral product uses a mixture of vitamins and plant extracts that help repair skin damage and fade scarring. It also works to provide a boost of moisture to the skin for a velvety base and smoothing out uneven skin tones. It's recommended for those with marks due to pregnancy, surgery, injury, acne, and/or a C-section.

It's like the famous Bum Bum Cream but in body oil form! Infused with caffeine-rich guarana, this cream will help with puffiness and dry skin long-term. The brand recommends that it be applied after a shower or bath. And I betcha you'll be instantly sold when you smell its addicting pistachio and salted caramel fragrance!

Reviewers say this quickly became a staple in their skincare routine after one use. From its organic ingredients to its recyclable glass bottle to its luxurious apricot aroma, people love how quickly it rejuvenates the skin without leaving a greasy residue.

Tatcha is a cult favorite for its luxury Japanese beauty products that use pure ingredients to give you that glass skin effect. (I can personally attest!) So, it's no surprise that its body oil would work the same wonders. It visibly nourishes and softens the skin and contains a Forest Awakening essential oil blend proven to calm the senses and lift your mood. How can you say no to a product that'll make you glisten and cheer up? (Answer: Ya can't.)

Here's proof that you don't need to drop tons of $$ to have soft and shiny glass skin. With the SheaMoisture Body Oil that literally costs less than your morning iced coffee from your local café, your skin will glow like it has never glowed before. Featuring ingredients like coconut oil and coconut milk, your skin will drink this up and will look more hydrated and smoother than ever. Ahem, and all for under $9!

Cosmo's beauty editor Beth Gillette says this is the "least body-oil, body oil ever to exist," and IDK about you, but I'm intrigued! Just after a few drops on the skin and massaging it in, it "basically soaks right in, leaving behind a slight shine that somehow doesn't feel oily at all." She adds: "It gives my skin a radiant, dewy finish without making me feel sticky too (necessary for pre-bed rub downs)." It's available in Orange Blossom, Cedarwood, and Unscented!

For the person who would describe their skin as being drier than the Sahara, this one is for you. The combination of rich cocoa butter, Vitamin E, Canola oil, and rosehip oil makes it the ideal, moisturizing cocktail of ingredients for your skin to drink up. Customers say that it leaves their skin looking and feeling oh-so silky. Bonus: It's also been proven to help with dry patches on the face as well!

Gentle skin-type folks, right this way! Here I’ve got a vegan, hypoallergenic, and certified organic body oil for ya. This fragrance-free option made up of jojoba oil, coconut oil, and argan oil has your name written all over it. Without any non-natural ingredients, it’ll revive dry skin instantly. BTW, it also doubles as a massage oil!

I love the feeling and look of being moisturized, but I have to say, I’ve always hated the slippery feeling of those types of products. If you’re in the same boat as I am, dry body oil is the answer. It does the same job as any other body oil except it is of a lighter consistency and leaves little to no residue. Over 4,000 reviews say it doesn’t have that sticky, oily texture but still leaves the skin noticeably silky and bright. My favorite part is that it has Moroccanoil’s signature spicy and sweet scent!

Personally, if I’m going to use body oil on my skin, it better not just make it look glowy. It should also have stuff that’ll promote my skin’s overall health and wellness. This 100 percent organic body oil is rich in minerals, omegas, vitamin B, C, and E—so you’ll know it’ll be working over time to improve skin appearance (especially those who have deficiencies in certain nutrients) and protect it from UV rays.
