Love at First Rub: O-Mega Body Oil by Mama Mio


I'm not much of a body oil user. I couldn't even remember the last time I used body oil to soften my skin. I particularly avoid any skin care product that feels heavy and greasy so at first, I was a bit hesitant about trying Mama Mio's O-Mega Body Oil. After examining the product description though, I found out it had some 'good for you' ingredients- Omega 3, 6, and 9 mixed with argan oil, safflower, and jojoba oils- so I thought, "why not give it a try?". Plus the product's catchy slogan, "so long, lizard legs!" really piqued my curiosity.

Mama Mio O-Mega Body Oil is created to help you achieve a smoother, firmer, and more elastic skin. You rub a splash of it between your hands and massage it all over your body to give your skin the "superfood" it needs.

As a busy mom of two little ones, my showers usually happen at night right after I put my babies to sleep. So the way I use my O-Mega Body Oil is after I get out of my nightly shower. I rub and massage it on my still-damp skin then I go to bed with it.

Can I just say it was 'love at first rub' for me and my O-Mega Body Oil? I was totally amazed how this stuff is working for me. I love that the oil sinks quick into my skin so it doesn't feel greasy at all. Waking up in the morning has never been so much better! My skin feels softer, smoother and smelling gorgeous.

You can get your own bottle of Mama Mio O-Mega Body Oil, available at MamaMio.com, $35 for 200ml/6.8 fl.oz

*Win a Mama Mio O-Mega Body Oil for yourself! Leave a comment on this post and tell us why you would like to try this product. Contest ends Friday, May 30th, 12MN, CST. One winner will be picked using Random.org. Goodluck!

I love the slogan! My skin isn't very dry, except for on my feet.

Huguette said...

This would be great after I shave my legs, as they get itchy.

mannequin said...

Oh geez. This sounds magnificent! Usually, I slather up after bath and by in the morning, you couldn't tell I used anything at all. I surely could use this!
Thanks for the chance and the review!

frugallm said...

My skin is dry all the time! No matter how many times I put lotion on it's dry within 20 minutes! I would love to try this!

Kristinia said...

3rd c-section coming up in September, need I say more! I'm 6 months preggo and this sounds very moisturizing and moisture is very important while preggo!

michelle said...

I would love to win this, because like you, I avoid most lotions and other skin-softening products since they often feel too greasy or leave a film on my skin for a long time, to where I feel like I can't touch anything or get dressed right away. My under-sink cabinet is filled with lotions I don't use. I would like to get rid of them all and just have one product that I can count on.

Andrea said...

My doctor just told me I should get some skin softening oil for my skin. LOL!!! I guess that's a good enough reason to try this, plus it looks fab. Thanks.

Naomi said...

I was worried about the oiliness when I used Mama Mio Tummy Rub during my pregnancy but I was impressed with how quickly it absorbed. And I came to love the smell. I would love to try the O-Mega, my skin has been freakishly dry since giving birth to Jasper. I used to be too oily, now I am too dry. Ugh.

Tanya Peila said...

Mama Zen said...

I love to use body oil right out of the shower, and I would love to try this!

NateAndJakesMom said...

Every part of my body screams daily. I am so dry all the time - is it the pregnancy? Or could it be because I haven't not been pregnant or nursing in almost 2 years?? No time to take care of myself.

Chivalrybean said...

I am all for keeping my skin clean, beautiful and healthy..this looks like a great product to try!

michelle said...

I love to use body oil. THis sounds perfect for my dry skin!

lace said...

This sounds wonderful. I use lotion all the time but still feel dry at times. I would love to have smooth, moisturized skin.

I've tried baby oil and didn't like that. It still feels greasy afterwards.

Mary512 said...

I would love to win some mama mio for my post baby stretch mark skin. Great giveaway, thanks J!

Kathleen W. said...

I've really neglected my skin since before I was pregnant, and I now have a 2 month old which means I still don't have much time. However, summer is coming and I need to at least shave! So this oil would be an incentive to get my legs ready for the pool. Thanks!

Erica said...

I'm a working mom of just one but I still find it difficult to get those showers in and my legs are all bumpy :(

windycindy said...

How wonderful to have a body oil that isn't heavy or greasy! I have had unusually dry skin starting this winter! My hormones are doing a number on me and messing with my skin! Please enter me in your delightful drawing. I appreciate it!
Many thanks, Cindi

Dolly said...

oils usually go further than lotions. i'd like to try something that feels/smells good and lasts a long time. it's super dry where i live, and i got through lotions and body butters like crazy...i'd like something that's easier to use that combats dryness.

Sue Wintz said...

I'd love it because I live in Arizona where we've already hit 110 degrees!

Ames said...

This looks awesome - I get very dry skin in the winter and now I'm pregnant and it's making my skin change and do crazy things :) Thanks!

mrssmiff said...

I'm allergic to every lotion out there! Body oil, I can handle...and the more natural, the better!

I like what you said about it's being good for firmer, smoother and more elastic skin. That's exactly what I need. I'm just starting to see the effects of age and I'm trying to combat that.

Mommy said...

I think the "Lizard Legs" slogan is a pretty apt description of my problem. I've had terrible dry skin all my life, and now that I'm a mom I take even less care of myself than I did before. I need to try this! Thanks!

Karin said...

My legs are very dry--too much sun I think!

My skin, especially my feet, have been so dry lately. I've been lathering my feet in vasoline every night hoping that will help but alas it is not. This sounds like just what I am looking for.
