My biggest skin problem is always dry skin. It doesn't matter if it is winter or summer my skin is always dry. I'm lucky that I never get any spots but I suffer from horrible dry flaky skin instead. Over the years I have tried so many products but none have been as effective as my new Holy Grail product, The Body Shop Beautifying Oil. I received this product at a blogger event and was immediately intrigued by it. It can be used on the body, hair and most importantly for me on the face.
Every night I rub a few drops onto my face before I go to sleep and the results have been amazing. My skin has totally transformed. It is no longer dry and flaky but smooth and soft. This is a total miracle for me as I have been trying to sort the dryness for years! The oil itself is not greasy and absorbs really well into the skin. You only need a small bit at a time so the bottle will last a long time.
The oil comes in a range of scents including Pink Grapefruit, Coconut, Moringa, Cocoa Butter, Mango, Strawberry, Shea, Sweet Lemon, Olive and Chocomania. I have the Shea version which is made from Community Fair Trade shea butter. It smells lovely and is not as nutty as I would have thought. (I'm not the biggest lover of nutty smells but I love this!)
The oil is a bit expensive at €15, but it will last aaaaagggeees so it is well worth the price. I will 100% buy it again. I'm even tempted to get another one now so I can try the other scents. I would love to try the strawberry or mango version. If you have oily skin I wouldn't recommend you use the product on your face but if you have really dry skin like me this might be the product you are looking for!

I love the look of this, I get awful dry patches & even my spots are flaky! I was terrified that an oil would make me out break out badly though!
ReplyDeleteIt hasn't caused any breakouts for me yet (hope I don't jinx it now!) You could try a small drop on any patches maybe and see how your skin reacts?
DeleteWow this sounds amazing I'm always a bit wary of putting oils on my face but I'm very tempted by this as I can get quite dry patches xx
ReplyDeleteI'd say give it a try but use small amount and see how you get on :)
DeleteI'm dry like yourself so agree oil's like this one are amazing and will last ages:)
ReplyDeleteI love it! :D
DeleteSounds like a super effective product! I haven't seen these released in the Body Shop stores here yet. My skin isn't dry so not sure whether this would work as well on me, but seems like the ideal product for dry skin :)
ReplyDeleteIt's great for dry skin I'm not sure what it would be like on other skin types but I love it! :)
