Top 10 Best Massage Oils in the UK 2021 (The Body Shop, Weleda and More)

This luxurious combination of fragrant essential oils is just perfect for a deeply relaxing massage where your troubles will simply float away. Elemis use only the finest quality oils to bring you unrivalled relaxation, though there are a couple of added fragrances and perfumes, too. 

Lavender and chamomile, two of the best-loved ingredients for calming we can think of, are key fragrance notes here, with rosewood bringing a duskier base to the scent. Pamper yourself or a partner to perfection!

Burt's Bees have released this pleasant, 100% natural light-textured oil which is packed with vitamin E as well as almond and lemon oil, making it a magical choice for a deeply hydrating massage on growing pregnancy bumps or new mamas. 

It can also be used by itself as a nourishing body oil for dry skin types, but doubles as a massage oil for any natural skincare fan as it's pleasantly scented and leaves skin feeling impossibly soft and touchable.

This glorious massage oil has a base of coconut and jojoba for a warm, exotic scent. Peach kernels, grapefruit, rosemary and juniper then add new layers of sweetness, making it a sensory treat, plus there are some muscle-soothing additions such as eucalyptus and mint, too. 

Whoever is giving the massage here should make the most of these bright fragrance notes with a vigorous, pummelling massage! This easily-absorbed oil won't leave you greasy but moisturises to the max.

If you're worried about the texture of your skin, an all-over body massage with this sweet-smelling oil could prove highly effective. Using 100% natural ingredients, Cosmeceuticals' offering promises to firm and tone skin effectively.

Also wonderful for uplifting and refreshing, this oil is scented with lemon oil and head-turning eucalyptus, so it lends itself to a bold, fearless massage that will sweep away the cobwebs and give cellulite the boot at the same time!

The Body Shop do not disappoint when it comes to sumptuous fragrances! Here is a stimulating massage oil which will really boost the mood and leave your muscles singing, with an enormous ingredients list full of beneficial ingredients. 

Body Shop's Spa of the World range has plenty of treats, and this massage oil may include a fair few chemical ingredients alongside the natural, but it will still leave your largest organ quenched and stroke-able. 

This massage oil is ideal for anyone suffering from sports- or exercise-related injuries, as it harnesses the powers of cyprus leaf to soothe and relax overly-tensed, uncomfortable muscles. 

Add to that the delectable scent and reviving properties of mint and a dreamy touch of sweet fennel, and you've got a fragrance combination that can take you from the massage table to nirvana in a matter of moments. Plus, all of the ingredients are from natural sources, and most of them are organic. 

A massage with this 100% sweet almond oil can't fail to be relaxing (or invigorating; it really depends on the masseuse!) but the key properties of this oil are its profoundly hydrating, skin-healing qualities. 

This is one of Amazon's best-selling oils, likely because it's very affordable, it's entirely natural and GMO-free, and it's cruelty-free and vegan. The joy of this oil is that it can function either as a simple oil for sensitive skins, or as a base for the essential oil fragrance you love best!

Pack your skin full of the nutrients of hazelnut oil while you slip into a deep relaxation. Clarins have concocted a peerless massage oil by blending the antioxidant properties of the hazelnut with great scents. 

Basil and geranium are highly uplifting, and when paired with calming chamomile you create a soothing scent that leaves you warm and reassured, so it's no wonder it's a popular pick for pregnancy. Ideal for a gently indulging massage where you'll drift into sleep and wake up renewed. 

Suffering after an intense workout, or plagued by arthritis? Try Weleda's spectacularly popular massage oil enriched with the healing properties of arnica. The makers actually recommend use before or after exercise, so you can prevent as well as cure. 

Arnica is believed to soothe bruises, sprains and inflammation, while the helenalin contained in the arnica plant may be the reason it is lauded by many as an effective pain reliever. Certainly this natural massage oil is a big hit with online shoppers!

You can always rely on Neal's Yard to come up with the goods! A truly superior massage oil is always fragranced to perfection, doesn't use too many harsh chemicals, and is light on the fingers without being sticky or oozy – this product ticks all of those boxes. 

Neroli and mandarin team up with sweet almond to make this oil a scent-sational choice for vigorous or loving massages alike. Vitamin E is also included, meaning skin cells get the VIP treatment too, be that for pregnancy, new mums, or anyone looking for a pamper. It's a winner!
