Buy any kind of body wash and add a capful of olive oil to it and shake it like crazy right before using it every time. Research shows that olive oil truly nourishes skin cell membranes and makes them softer. Baby oil, or, mineral oil, actually damages and dries your skin. It ruptures surface cells on your skin by breaking down the cell membrane. That temporary silky feel with baby oil is really the cellular fluid and fatty membrane fragments sliding around on top of your skin. Ah, the joys of having one's own microscope. : )

The Santuary (UK spa brand available at boots and possibly online) do a couple of good products if you want an 'oil finish' :)
The sugar scrub is one that I have tried.
The products also smell great and are not OTT expensive; you can also buy travel size products if you want to try before investing in a massive tub of the stuff. Sachets of the scrubs which leave the oil finish cost around £1.50 from boots.

Oil of Olay leaves a nice smooth oil on the body. It reminds me of a moisturizer without having to apply lotion, body butter, cream, etc after the bath. The bodywash or bar form will leave a nice felling after showing. I think they make it in different scents.

Avon skin so soft. As an alternative put a small amount of baby oil in your hand and rub over your body whilst still wet. keeps the skin nice & smells gorgous but subtle

Not really a body wash. I usually use a regular bodywash, then apply baby oil to the still wet skin and rub it in. That will give you the results you want.

The best is the tubs of body scrub from the body shop, the mango one is nice.
You scrub and exfoliate in shower then when its rinsed off it leaves that nice smooth oily feel!!!!! Lovely x

Lush's soaps have a good oil base. The snowcake one has an almond oil base. Leaves your skin lovely!
