When the air outside gets cold and dry skin gets quite dry also because the water in our skin evaporates and that is the thing that occurs to prompts dry skin in our bodies. So, that is the reason it’s very significant for us to use moisturizers and rich creamy lotions.
But sometimes moisturizers and creamy lotions feel greasy and oily on the skin. The body oil could be used as a moisturizer, Body oils are smooth and highly concentrated liquids that improve the quality of the skin. Therefore, I am aiming to review Neutrogena’s body oil-light sesame formula.

My write-up on Neutrogena body oil
I would never have tried body oil, however, it was given to me by a friend, so there was nothing to lose if I didn’t like it. I apply somewhat more than the “few drops” they instruct you to use, but yet I’d suggest beginning with a very small amount since it’s anything but difficult to go over the edge.
It’s actually less greasy than almost any lotion I’ve ever tried and lasts much longer. I swear it even makes my skin softer over time, especially places like my elbows that tend to be dryer.
It is a light dry oil that absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy feeling on the skin. While I don’t think it would be perfect as a stand-alone product in winter, it is absolutely perfect for the transitional seasons.
I’ve used it as a ‘lotion’ which makes my skin feeling remarkably soft and I’ve used it in a hot bath and it’s given my skin the same, soft, relaxing feel once I’m out of the bath and dried off.
It’s perfect for anyone who has dry skin and/or doesn’t need a lotion that has a super heavy smell or feel.
I use this oil every time I take a shower. It can get sticky so make sure you have enough time after you shower to let it dry before you get dressed. It keeps my skin soft and shiny.

Sesame oil is a natural conditioner for the skin. It is really a very light formula. After some time it doesn’t feel oily at all. It really helps in lightening the skin tone and keeps the skin moisturized throughout the day if applied to damp skin. It makes the skin look radiant and nourished.
This Non-greasy oil has a mild fragrance and, nourishing enough for my dry skin. Its gentle formula makes it easy for me to use on summer days as well, yes I do wear body oil in summer due to dry skin.
I bought it off the counter in one of the superstores and have not regretted it even once. It doesn’t stain, is steeped in the skin in minutes after you apply it, and keeps the skin nourished.
I add a few drops to my shower after a long day at work, and I immediately feel more relaxed. Also, because this oil is so light, your skin can absorb it rapidly. This product has completely captured my heart, and I plan to use it constantly.
Packaging
It’s like liquid gold in a bottle. The packaging is quite simple, with a round opening at the top with a flip cover. It causes the oil to flow out and it is relatively hard to control the amount because of the liquidity of the oil. It would be better if it comes with a pump. but for the price, you can’t complain too much.
Smell
It doesn’t have a strong smell, but it has a sheer hint and a light smell.
Consistency
This body oil is a very light, almost liquid-like consistency.
