I am still coming off the high of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show! As my favorite store ever, this is literally my Super Bowl, and they completely delivered. While I continue to replay the show in my head, obsessing over the iconic wings and glistening runway skin, it reminded me that it's a great time to talk about my favorite body care staples.
With fall and winter among us, that crisp air brings all the cozy holiday vibes and air, but unfortunately, dropping temperatures love to strip away our natural moisture. If you want to keep your skin smooth, supple, and beautifully hydrated through the cold months ahead, it’s time to elevate your routine with my ultimate holy grail: the Victoria's Secret Pink Honey Body Oil!
I first stumbled upon this staple a few years ago while shopping in Miami with my Mom. While VS offers a few different amazing scents in this collection, like Apple and Vanilla, the Rich Honey is the undisputed no brainer for me. I reach for it anytime I want my skin to feel intensely moisturized, supple, and extra juicy!
What sets this apart from standard, runny body oils is its luxurious texture. It is very thick, rich, and formulated with actual, real honey. Honey is a natural humectant, meaning it literally draws moisture out of the air and locks it straight into your skin. When you apply it, it feels comforting and ultra-nourishing and seals in deep hydration all day long. Here’s how I use it:
Apply to damp skin: Step straight out of the shower and pat yourself slightly dry, leaving a little moisture on your skin.
Layer your base: Smooth on your favorite body lotion or rich body cream first to drench your skin in deep hydration.
Lock it in with oil: Top it all off by glazing a generous amount of this thick honey oil right over your cream. Because oil is occlusive, putting it on last creates the ultimate moisture barrier, locking in the lotion and leaving your skin intensely supple and soft for hours.
Let it melt in: Give it a minute to absorb before dressing. It leaves behind the most comforting, soft, and soothing sweet scent that lasts.
While it is an absolute lifesaver for surviving the winter and fall months, don't pack it away when the sun comes back out. This exact same oil works absolute wonders in the summer. The thick, rich formula reflects the light beautifully, giving you that ultimate, high-shine glistening skin effect that looks stunning on beach days and summer nights out. It is truly the perfect product for keeping your skin looking and feeling flawlessly polished every single day of the year. Hope you love it as much as I do!
Xoxo,
