When summer rolls around (which was actually pretty late this year in Japan), my skincare routine changes and it’s all about the oils for me. Whether you’re going to the beach or just wearing a tank top with shorts, be ready to show off that healthy, summer glow. In this post, I’ll be introducing my 5 favorite body & hair oils for summer and beyond.

健康的な肌を作るには、やっぱりボディーオイル。夏は特に肌見せが多いので、きらめく肌を目指して目指してスキンケアルーティーンも変えていました。今回は、お勧めするボディ&ヘアオイルを5つ紹介します。健康的なツヤ感を目指して✨

My 5 Favorite Body & Hair Oils for Summer

  1. Johnson’s shea & cocoa butter oil gel (body): I swear by this baby oil gel. Since this can be used on a baby’s skin, I think it’s safe to say it can be used on different types on skin. I’ll apply a generous amount on my body right after a shower so my skin absorbs it better than when it’s completely dry. I get so many compliments on my arms and legs. The only downside is yes, it can feel slick and oily (what do you expect?) so depending on what you’re ok with, I suggest adjusting the amount you apply on your body.
  2. Pai Rosehip BioRegenerate Oil (face): I think I learned about this brand/product on a skincare article, so I bought one to test it out. This is great to use on my face when I don’t want to use too many products – it acts as my serum and moisturizer in one. Even though it’s a facial oil, I don’t feel my face getting oily after use despite my combination skin. Some people may have issues with the smell (it doesn’t exactly smell fabulous) and it’s a bit orange, but it does a great job regenerating and restoring the balance of your skin. This is also great for Eczema-prone skin.
  3.  Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse multi-purpose dry oil (face, body & hair): Let me tell you, this oil smells AMAZING. I sometimes use this in the place of perfume for my body, or as a hair oil when I don’t feel like using a pomade for my short hair. This multi-purpose oil is made with 7 precious botanical oils: highly nourishing and anti-aging Tsubaki oil, softening sweet almond oil, moisturizing Camellia oil, anti-wrinkle borage oil, soothing hazelnut oil, nourishing macadamia oil and repairing argan oil. It’s also free from preservatives, silicone and mineral oils. I love to bring this with me when I travel since it’s so convenient.
  4. Yves Rocher Monoi de Tahiti Dry Body Oil (body): I picked this up when I visited a Yves Rocher store in Paris. I had never used a dry body oil before, but I realized it’s actually really great to have around when you need some glow on your body. This oil has a warm scent which I love that is reminiscent of a tropical destination. The great thing about dry oils is that they don’t feel sticky or slick like regular body oils.
  5. OGX Coconut Miracle Oil (hair): Even though this is not a skincare oil, I absolutely love the smell of coconut oil and what it does to my hair so I’m going to throw this in the list as #5. The great thing about the OGX Coconut Miracle Oil is that it’s so much easier to apply than real coconut oil (yes, I did that before) and it leaves my bleached hair detangled, smooth and smelling amazing. Did I mention that it’s really affordable?

 

 

My 5 Favorite Body & Hair Oils for Summer

  1. Johnson’s shea & cocoa butter oil gel (ボディ): 私はどっちかというと、オイル派です。赤ちゃんの肌にも使えるこのベビーオイルジェルは、肌タイプ問わず使えるはずです。シャワーを浴びた後、肌がまだ少し濡れてる状態に満遍なく塗っていくのがポイント。オイルなのでもちろんぬるぬるしますが、朝起きた時の肌の感触には文句言えません!
  2. Pai Rosehip BioRegenerate Oil (フェイス): スキンケアの記事を読んでいる時に知ったブランドと商品です。使ってみたいなと思い購入してみたところ、思った以上によかったのでなくなりかけています(笑)。夏はあまりたくさんのスキンケア商品を使いたくないので、このフェイスオイルをセラムと乳液療法として使っています。匂いは多少きついかもしれませんが、慣れれば大丈夫です。このオイルの良いポイントは、肌のバランスを取り戻すことができるし、湿疹になりやすい肌にとてもおすすめです。
  3.  Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse multi-purpose dry oil (フェイス, ボディ & ヘア): このマルチオイルは本当に大好きです。体全体に使えるので、旅行に行く時には便利だし、香水がないときは香水がわりになるくらいいい匂いです。椿オイル、アーモンドオイル、カメリアオイル、ルリヂサオイル、ヘーゼルナッツオイル、マカデミアオイルとアルガンオイルの7つのボタニカルオイルが配合されています。保存料、シリコンとミネラルオイルフリーなので、安心して使えます。
  4. Yves Rocher Monoi de Tahiti Dry Body Oil (ボディ): このボディオイルは、パリのYves Rocherに行った時にピックアップしたもの。ドライボディオイルというものを使ったことがなかったので、どんなものなのか試してみたくなりました。ぬるぬるしたオイルを使いたくない時にちょうど良いオイルで、肌に少しきらめきを足したい時にもぴったりです。暖かみなる香りも私好みなので、夏の間は結構使ってます。
  5. OGX Coconut Miracle Oil (ヘア): 肌用のオイルではないのですが、ヘアオイルも紹介します。ココナッツオイルの香りが好きなので、このヘアオイルは欠かせません。このOGXミラクルオイルは普通のココナッツオイルより使いやすいし、髪の毛の指感触もすごく良くなります。私のブリーチしている髪の毛もいい感じにサラサラにしてくれます。後、コスパが本当に良いです!

Body oils are the best. I love how them hydrating deeply my skin just fond the good one. Usually natural products absorb easier. I think the Johnson’s was my first in the past 😉 I love also the fragrance of the Nuxe. Thanks for sharing

I never tried any of those but I would choose the coconut one because of the natural touch 🙂

Oil has been so “in” nowadays but I don’t really use it because it just sounds so… heavy for the skin and greasy, and my face generally has oily skin. The Johnson’s Baby Oil Gel sounds appealing though and looks like the less “oily” in the group so I probably try it 🙂

Great picks! Johnson’s is my all time favorite. I haven’t tried OGX Coconut Miracle Oil. I love the coconut scent too, so that’s the next one that I will get. Thanks for the recommendations.

Oh my gosh, I use so many oils as well. Mostly though for my hair and face. I always forget body oils or even moisturizer for that matter! These sound good too! xx Jenelle | inspiringwit.com
