I am a big fan of all bath oils, body smoothing oils, etc. One of the best and easiest ways to stay moisturized is with bath oils. After taking a shower, before towelling off, lather on the bath oil and then dry off excess. This leaves you moisturized all day. Plus, lotion maybe applied on top of the bath oil to leave you perfumed and moisturized all day.

This recipe is great with essential oils added. See link at bottom of page to bath oil recipe with different essential oil blends.
