Choosing between body oil vs body lotion depends above all on what your skin needs. These two products don't do the same job, but they can work well together.
Body lotion
It's ideal for:
hydrating the skin
everyday use
normal to slightly dry skin
Body oil
It's recommended for:
nourishing the skin
helping keep dryness at bay
leaving skin feeling more supple
Can you use both?
Yes. A balanced routine can include:
a body lotion every day
a body oil or body butter as an extra step
Conclusion
Body oil and body lotion aren't rivals. Used well, together they meet your skin's real needs.
