Saltair shimmer
Scent: Sandalwood
Nice on the body. Easy to apply. I use it with my lotion for an all over glowy shimmer. It will be very nice in the summer. Nice scent, no irritation.

Buy it you won’t be disappointed
Scent: Sandalwood
I love it already and I haven’t applied it directly to my full body after a shower as instructed but from what I did apply it’s whatever it says it is . It eats down ok, skin softness, moisturizing , the shimmer is just enough , the scent is soft and smells incredibly great. Smells like a fresh shower lol it’s not thick consistency at all and just the right amount of oiliness to add shine to the body. I can’t wait to use this product fully .

Glow up!
Color: #2 ROSE, Color: #2 ROSE
I bought this for a cruise to the Caribbean and it was perfect! I applied it before heading to the beach. Then reapplied once I got to the beach. The oil is light and doesn’t feel oily at all. It leaves your skin with a very natural glow and softens your tan. The scent is light but elegant, not over powering. I love it!

Love this oil!
Color: #2 ROSE
Great oil. I have problems with dry skin and this oil adds moisture and a little glow to complement the perfect outfit. It looks just as good on my tan skin as it does on my off-season, lighter skin tone. Great price point too!
