massage oil

Kneading session slick

Massage oil is oil applied to skin to reduce friction during massage, allowing hands to glide smoothly over the body.

These oils are typically plant-based—almond, coconut, jojoba—sometimes with added scents or therapeutic ingredients: lavender massage oil, warming massage oil.

The term often carries sensual connotations, appearing in romantic or erotic contexts.
