NYX Fat Oil Body Butter has a thin, spreadable texture that several compare to Sol de Janeiro's Bum Bum Cream, and it hydrates for hours without leaving grease. Professional beauty reviewer RachhLoves found it insufficient for very dry elbows and knees, and disliked the scent. At around $12-13 for 4.9 oz, it's a budget-friendly option for normal to dry skin, but not for those with extremely dry patches.

- “The texture literally is the exact same. It has that thin texture, but as you're working it into your skin, it just gets a little more, I don't know, movable, malleable onto your skin. It glides and it hydrates your skin for hours”5:26–5:34
