AJA Botanicals by Tilly After Midnight Radiant Body Oil

Weโ€™re really not surprised to hear that despite the luxe price tag, this has been flying off the shelves of Tilly Woodโ€™s website. It is, quite simply, divine. 

We were seduced from the get-go by the texture of this oil, which blends a slew of luscious, body-caring, sheen-boosting botanical oils, including borage, Abyssynian, rosehip, calendula, argan, jojoba and camellia.

But oh, the scent. Youโ€™ve got to sniff it to believe it, an exotic but not-too-heady combo of jasmine sambac, grounding sandalwood and airy neroli. (If Tilly brings out a spritzable fragrance with this scent, weโ€™ll be first in the queue. NB You can already find candles on her ajabotanicalsbytilly.com website, so weโ€™ve everything crossed.)

Itโ€™s particularly good on shins which are becoming dry and parched right now that tights are โ€˜wickingโ€™ away skinโ€™s natural oils and moisture โ€“ but lovely massaged into arms and the backs of hands, before bedtime, to enjoy wafts as you head slumber-wards.

So yes, itโ€™s a lot to pay for a body oil โ€“ but if youโ€™re feeling like a splurgeโ€ฆ
