The Body Oil, £40 | Nécessaire
Best For: Sensitive Skin
This brand isn’t just big on social media because of its chic branding. Necessaire formulates its body products with the same ingredients you’d use on your face – think hyaluronic acid, peptides and antioxidants – so your body is treated to some real beneath-the-surface TLC. This particular oil is formulated with cold-pressed restorative ingredients including vitamins C and E, and omega-6. Unsurprisingly, it applies like a dream and the fragrance-free formula is ideal for sensitive skin.

Lipid-Replenishing Shower Oil, £15.60 | Typology
Best For: In The Shower
By now you’re bound to have heard of Typology – another brand whose products are brimming with the same effective ingredients you’d use on your face. This replenishing shower oil is rich in antioxidants, which means it’s designed to restore skin’s suppleness and relieve any dryness, flakiness or tightness. Upon contact with the skin and a little bit of water, it emulsifies and transforms into a milky consistency. This comfortably coats the skin and, even after rinsing, leaves it feeling plump, smooth to the touch and nourished.

A true multitasker, this oil does it all. You can apply it to your body or hair – dry or in the shower – or even to your bath water for total head-to-toe nourishment. If you’re feeling adventurous, try mixing it with salts or sugars to create your very own at-home scrub. You’ll find it leaves your skin feeling both hydrated and invigorated – mainly thanks to a blend of luxurious essential oils.
