Designed to create more of an ethereal, lit-from-within look, the newest iteration of the trend takes the form of finely milled sparkle, suspended in luxuriously fragranced yet incredibly lightweight, non-sticky oils and serums.
The effect? An expensive-looking, skin-blurring glow that: 1) locks in hydration and 2) amplifies your signature scent and makes it last longer. (And for those searching for an even more subtle look, turn to
body oils that impart sheen rather than shimmer – think of it like a dewy highlighter, but for everything except your face.)
For best results, apply a generous layer of your favourite body lotion post-shower, then add your shimmering body oil over the top – focusing on areas that naturally catch the light, like your collarbones, shoulders and shins.
Here are some of our favourites…
