With the heightened interest in body care, many products within the category have skyrocketed in popularity.
For example, body washes from brands including Naturium and Saltair have taken social media by storm, with the products promising clear, smooth skin from the neck down. There’s also buzz around tools such as dry brushes, body sculpting cups and LED light therapy devices that are said to help with anti-aging and other skin concerns.
This time of the year, however, consumer demand has zeroed in on body oils. Like their body butter and body lotion counterparts, body oils moisturize the skin and can provide dry skin with soothing and healing benefits. But body oils’ unique appeal is in their lightweight, non-greasy formulas and ability to give skin a summery, glossy glow. In addition, body oils often have health benefits, with many made from blends of natural oils that work well with the skin; the ingredients can help repair the skin barrier.
“Body oils sit on top of the skin and act almost as a barrier to occlude the skin and prevent trans-epidermal water loss,” dermatologist Dr. Lindsey Zubritsky said in an interview with Marie Claire.
