I bet one of you has tried the Frangipani Monoi Body Oil from Elemis and can tell me if it is lemming-worthy? "Discover a skin-smoothing paradise with this ultra-hydrating body oil. Sourced from the beautiful coral shores of the Polynesian Islands, the superior blend of Frangipani, Monoi and Coconut oils intensely nourishes your body and restores peace and harmony in your mind. Skin is left looking smooth, feeling soft and smelling like a tropical paradise." 35 ml for $24 or 100 ml for $56 at Elemis.
The daily lemming
I can see this becoming a spring / summer staple: Fox in the Flowerbed Body Oil from Imaginary Authors. "Wearing this floral wonder will amplify the beauty in everything. It’s a versatile scent, doubling as a mood-lifter during the day and bringing an ethereal elegance to nights out. Don't be led astray by the name, there is nothing animalic or off-putting about this scent." $28, but the website doesn't seem to disclose the amount of product you receive — perhaps it's a bargain, perhaps not. Hat tip to somebody and my apologies for forgetting who told me, or commented about it, or ?
The daily lemming
Up in my top 10 lemmings at the moment, Aftelier's Summer Roses Body Oil: "A soft bouquet of honeyed, fruity, and slightly spicy roses on a summer’s day. The mingling of their aromas is intoxicating and transporting, like when you bury your nose in a bunch of roses. This body oil leaves a soft rosy veil on the skin." $75 for 50 ml at Aftelier.
The daily lemming
From Alba Botanica, Hawaiian Deep Moisturizing body oil in Kukui Nut: "Find sweet satisfaction with this nutrient-rich, super-smoothing, fast-absorbing body oil. Made with a blend of kukui nut, sweet almond, coconut, flaxseed and sunflower oils, this body oil works its magic to nourish, hydrate and protect skin from moisture loss. Skin is doused in silky perfection." Reviews on the smell range from yum to sticky sweet, so perhaps give it a sniff first? About $7 for 250 ml at Vitacost.
The (almost) daily lemming
The 2021 limited edition packaging (usually released before Chinese New Year) of Jurlique's Rose Body Oil ("Rich in pure Roses, this luxurious Exclusive Edition body oil is designed to deeply hydrate and balance the skin"), $82 for 200 ml at Jurlique.
