Neutrogena Body Oil Light Sesame Review

I absolutely love the Neutrogena Body Oil in Light Sesame.

To apply, I pour a little bit onto my hands or directly onto my skin and rub it it. The oil is very light, absorbs quickly and leaves the skin feeling so soft and silky. I have never found another oil that creates quite that silky feeling.

When I think of what type of oil and what scent I would want, sesame would not be the first thing that comes to mind. But it's actually rather nice, very neutral.

In terms of longevity of the product, you don't need a lot so it can last you quite a while.

Gives skin a healthy glow and skin feels immediately softer. Particularly good for dry areas like knees and elbows. Works best if you put it on after showering or bathing then it absorbs very quickly. Bonus in that it's non greasy and you can dress immediately.

I don't know how I got this body oil, but I know it wasn't a full bottle, but I do know it lasted me a very long time. I can still smell it in my brain and I remember how lovely it was!

The liquid is a very pale golden color and it's quite lovely in the bottle. The lid is black and the bottle is see through, so you can see how much how you have, very clearly. My bottle was 3/4 full at least and I know it lasted me well over 6 months.

The smell is gorgeous, it's a very sweet sesame oil smell and it's well, oily! It doesn't absorb very fast or well but does any oil? I found it was a great massage oil, and I mean GREAT. Most oils are but the smell of this was just lovely and so it made for a nice oil.

I used this in a number of ways. In the shower just before I got out in winter was great, it made my skin feel lovely and moisturized. Just before heading out into the sun, but this made my legs feel super sweaty so I wouldn't do it again, and as mentioned above, as a massage oil.

Love this product, so easy to use. I leave the bottle in the shower and apply near the end of my showering time. Makes my skin lovely and soft.

I hate moisturising, I really do, but when I have a bottle of this handy, I want nothing to do but to lather myself up in this stuff repeatedly!!

I'll start with the packaging, I adore the minimalist approach, a nice gold bottle with simple black writing and a black lid. It is a large bottle and you do get good amount of product! I only use this on my legs and it lasts me a good 3-4 months. However I dislike that there is no pump of any sort to get the product out, and you do have to tip it upside down and drip it onto your skin to use, which creates a mess as it spills all down the bottle and such.

I also really love the smell, it smells like sesame seeds and hazelnuts, and I hate the smell of hazelnuts but I adore this because it is not so overpowering where it makes you nauseous! I actually think that the scent makes me more relaxed. It's very subtle and fades within a half hour so it's nothing to worry about.

Now for the actual product. It is a very absorbent, super quick drying, lightweight oil, that not only makes your skin feel super super smooth, but it also brightens the skin, and gives it a nice glow. My legs are transferred from pale white and red, to having a nice natural glow! Keep in mind that this doesnt actual have any colour in it, so it's not going to tan your body per say, I'm just stating that after application, my legs appear to have life and colour in them! You also dont have to try rub all the oil in for ages and ages. A quick move makes sure that all that oil has settled into the skin!

I absolutely adore this, and I will be purchasing it for years and years to come!
