The Good 

  • I have tried body oils in the past and though they left my skin soft and moisturized, they always felt greasy and heavy. This oil has a lightweight texture and feels non greasy on skin.
  • The cocoa butter scent is to die for. It smells wonderful like the softest most comfortable subtle chocolate.
  • It’s perfect for summer – light, not sticky, and it sinks right into your skin. Really does beautify my skin. I will definately replace body butters with this for the summer.
  • I find that the oil is easily absorbed in the skin. I intially thought it would be too oily, but my skin just slurped it up and stayed happy! You can use beautifying oil rather than lotion if you’re in a rush.
  • Can be used after shaving your legs or even as a shaving oil.
  • My hair and skin look shinier than ever. Just be careful not to put too much on your hair though, it can get really oily. One or two drops on your palm, rub your palms together and apply on your slightly wet hair for best result.
  • I applied a small amount to the frizzy bits and voila! It smoothened it out, and even defined my curls without weighing it down.
  • Yes, this item is on the expensive side, but a little really goes a long way.

The Bad

  • The fragrance doesn’t last long.
  • The packaging is not travel friendly. The Beautifying oil can leak from the cap.


For Oily Skin Beauties: Avoid applying this oil on face. You can enjoy using this on your body.
For Dry Skin Beauties: Use it with body butter for extra moisture and glow on your skin.


Final Verdict – I use it on my hair, face and body. And have been very pleased with the result. Will definitely repurchase !  :)

My Rating : 5/5
