Body oils seem to inspire two camps: those who hate them and those who love them. If you aren't into them, no judgment—I get it. Some can err on the greasy side and don't provide many benefits that a lotion can't, but you should also know that I'm someone who will fully go to bat for them. That being said, know that this article may have been written with a bit of a bias. Thankfully, I'm not the only one who is into them. The rest of theBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing beauty team can also vouch for a few killer formulas out there. 

If you haven't found a body oil that you love yet, just know that not all body oils are created equally. Some smell a lot better than others, some have formulas that sink into the skin more effectively than others, and some have far superior ingredients than others. With a little trial and error, you just may find your body-oil soulmate. Below, I'm giving you the lay of the body-oil land and sharing 12 formulas beauty editors can't recommend enough. Keep scrolling! 

What to Look for in a Body Oil

Just like selecting skincare for your face, you'll want to select a body oil based on your skin type. If your skin is dry, opt for extra-hydrating ingredients like glycerin, rosehip oil, and coconut oil. If your skin is acne prone, you'll want to look for oils that are hydrating but noncomedogenic like jojoba, grapeseed, neem, sweet almond, castor, and sunflower. 

What's great about body oils is that they often contain organic plant extracts that are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that hydrate and protect the skin from environmental stress and aging. No matter your skin type, we've got options for you below. Keep on reading!
