  intro: "Body oil is one of the most misused products in a body care routine. Used in the right place at the right time, it adds a softness and a quality to skin that lotion alone tends not to achieve. Used as a replacement for a full moisturising step, it leaves skin looking conditioned but feeling tight within an hour. The key distinction is what oil is and isn't: it's an emollient — it fills in the spaces between surface skin cells and gives skin a smooth, soft feel. It is not a humectant. It doesn't draw water to the skin. And unless formulated specifically with wax or occlusive ingredients, it doesn't seal well either. This guide covers how body oil fits into a routine rather than replacing one.",

    h: "What body oil actually is (and isn't)",
    body: "Body oil is classified as an emollient: it fills the microscopic gaps between skin surface cells, making skin feel smoother and look more even. Unlike humectants, oils do not attract water. Unlike occlusives such as shea or petrolatum, most oils do not form a strong enough film on the skin surface to meaningfully slow water evaporation over time. They do best as one layer in a routine — applied on damp skin before a lotion or cream, or as an evening layer before a richer cream. When used alone on skin that already tends to feel tight after showering, the result is usually a surface that looks good briefly and then feels uncomfortable within the hour.",

  myths: [
    { m: "Body oil is more luxurious than body lotion, so it works better.",
      t: "Luxury and efficacy are different metrics. A humectant-rich lotion tends to address surface feel more comprehensively than a pure emollient oil used alone." },
    { m: "Natural oils absorb better than synthetic formulations.",
      t: "The molecule size determines absorption rate, not the natural versus synthetic distinction. Some plant-derived oils sit on the surface as long or longer than emollient esters." },
    { m: "If skin still feels tight after using oil, you need more oil.",
      t: "Tight skin after emollient application usually means a humectant is missing, not that more occlusion is needed. Try adding a lotion or serum with glycerin rather than increasing oil volume." },
