Yves Rocher celebrates 35 years of their traditional Monoï Oil with a collector's edition for Summer 2023: "Since 1988, the traditional oil takes care of all skins, from generation to generation. Yves Rocher Monoï oil is the result of an ancestral know-how and a commitment to a sustainable development approach in Tahiti. Our oil is made up of 97% natural ingredients, including 97.5% pure Tahitian Monoi, and nourishes the skin while enveloping it in a highly addictive sun fragrance. The skin is immediatly moisturized." 100 ml, currently on markdown to $20.30 at Yves Rocher USA.

For fans of Weleda Skin Food (and, presumably, the smell of Weleda Skin Food, although they do not say if it is the same fragrance), the new Skin Food Ultra-Light Dry Oil: "Our unique bi-phase formula combines vitamin-rich oils with extracts of pansy, chamomile, and calendula for glowing skin and intensive moisture. The ultra-lightweight mist dries instantly for a dry to the touch finish." $20 for 100 ml at Weleda.

A lemming for fans of the dearly departed Rodin Olio Lusso line (with props to whomever mentioned this in the comments the other day): a limited edition Jo Malone + Rodin series, which apparently launched last summer. At the US Jo Malone site, you can currently find the Jasmine & Neroli Luxury Body Oil ("Envelop skin with this sumptuous body oil. Massage in to enjoy an uplifting, sensorial experience. Enriched with evening primrose and sweet almond oils that nurture, it smooths on to leave skin feeling velvety soft. Infused with an exquisite scent to inspire the senses and help cultivate feelings of calm"; $136 for 109 ml), plus Jasmine & Neroli Luxury Face Oil ($96 for 13 ml), Jasmine & Neroli Luxury Oil Gel Cleanser ($70 for 180 ml), Jasmine & Neroli Luxury Hand & Body Cream ($88 for 100 ml) and Luxury Face Cream (not shown; $95 for 50 ml). Yes, it's still spendy!

I am indeed tired enough that this looks really appealing: Sleep Body Oil Mist, from From J.R. Watkins. "The SLEEP Body Oil Mist by J.R. Watkins is a hydrating body oil that leaves your skin moisturized, soft, and glowing with every use. Infused with floral monoi (A.K.A. gardenia) and musky sandalwood for a relaxing and calming aroma and skin-nourishing ingredients." $15 for 142 ml at Ulta.
