Summer is a perplexing time… moisture-wise. The over-heated indoor environments of winter are replaced by chilly air-conditioning and of course the sweltering heat and humidity outside. Do you pack up your body butters for the summer? Are lotions still too heavy outside, but not enough once you are thrust into the building freezers?!

I never thought I would say it, but speaking from personal experience (thanks to LaLicious!) body oils are the way to go. Our society has conditioned us to shriek in horror at the thought of putting oil on our skin, but the truth is it is one of the best ways to achieve natural moisture balance.

Over the past month, I made the LaLicious Mango Lily Body Oil one of my top five beauty products- slathering it on after showering in the morning and on ‘dedicated’ spots before bed. Aside from the truly delightful smell, the results were quite impressive. It absorbs in, leaves my skin beyond baby soft, and if I have extra on my hands I  comb it through the ends of hair as a conditioning treatment while I sleep. Made purely from Coconut Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Macadamia Nut Oil, Essential and Fragrance Oils, Soybean Oil, Vitamin E Oil, LaLicious body oil has won its permanent spot on my beauty counter. 

And… right now LaLicious is giving 20% of the body oil profits to the Earth Share “good oil” relief fund. Nice.
