SINGAPORE – Now that just about every brand has a body shimmer, Anastasia Beverly Hills is joining the pack.

Anastasia is known for always packing loads of shimmer so naturally we were excited when they dropped a Shimmer Body Oil that looks like paradise in a fancy bottle.

It comes in a see-through glass bottle with a gold cap and a nozzle, and you can see all the shimmery liquid in it. The spray function makes it easy to control how much product you want to lather on.

I am a less-is-more person so I went with two spritzes of the Shimmer Body Oil and massaged it on my skin. It leaves my skin with a touchable, silky-soft feel and sun-kissed glow.

Apply to the high points of the body, such as the collarbone, décolletage and tops of the shoulders. Or, apply all over for a more intense glow.

This coconut vanilla-scented formula is infused with a blend of sweet almond oil, jojoba seed oil and pearlescent reflects to illuminate the skin with a subtle shimmer.

After a night out, this girl did not get sticky, which is good.

What about the staying power? It lasted throughout the night with no issues for me.

I also like that it washes off quickly with water. However, the staying power would be a little weak for those heading to the beach for a swim.
