True Botanicals Pure Radiance Body Oil
This luxurious body oil is formulated to smooth, soften, and leave skin with a radiant finish, using a blend of nutrient-rich seed oils and botanical extracts. It’s lightweight enough for regular use, but still feels like a treat.

What I Like
I like the seed oil base here. Green tea seed, hemp, chia, sunflower, and jojoba oils help support the skin barrier and give that nourished, healthy glow without feeling greasy.
It absorbs well and works beautifully after a shower on slightly damp skin, especially if your goal is softness and radiance rather than a heavy, coated feel.
EWG rating (EWG analyzer): 3.
Things to Keep in Mind
This EWG score is mainly driven by the essential oil and aromatic component blend, including orange, cinnamon, sandalwood, and naturally occurring fragrance compounds like citral, farnesol, eugenol, limonene, and linalool. These are commonly flagged for potential irritation or sensitization in leave-on products, especially for fragrance-sensitive or reactive skin types.
If you’re prone to redness, eczema flares, or fragrance sensitivity, this may be better used occasionally or on select areas rather than as a daily, full-body oil.
Sensitive Skin & Pregnancy Considerations
Patch testing is recommended, especially if your skin is sensitive or easily reactive.
If you’re pregnant or nursing and prefer to limit essential oils and aromatic ingredients, you may choose to use this sparingly or opt for a fragrance-free body oil instead, depending on your comfort level.
Essential oil transparency: essential oils can carry trace contaminants depending on sourcing and processing, and they naturally contain aromatic compounds that can be sensitizing for some individuals. I prioritize brands that test for purity and aim to minimize contaminants and impurities whenever possible.
