At Oak, we believe in skin longevity, or making small, daily investments in your skin that add up to real, lasting results. And our new Dew Body Butter delivers on that philosophy—supporting aging skin from the neck down, with a luxurious, whipped texture you’ll look forward to using every day. Keep reading for a closer look at the ingredient science behind our first-of-a-kind new launch as Gina Cruz, Oak’s Product Development Director, breaks it all down.

What sets Dew Body Butter apart from other body butters on the market?
Dew Body Butter is designed to help support the skin’s structure and protective barrier as it changes with age. Over time, our skin naturally produces less moisture and fewer lipids—and particularly during menopause, moisture loss can be significant.

Dew Body Butter is rich in fatty acids and emollient ingredients that help lock in water, reduce dryness, and keep your skin looking plump and smooth. Well-hydrated skin tends to look bouncier and more elastic—which can make fine lines and wrinkles appear less noticeable. Our formula helps “slow” visible signs of aging by keeping your skin healthy, protected, and deeply nourished.

Texture-wise, it’s also very unique. It’s whipped, airy, and it feels silky on application—compared to traditionally heavy, more solid body butters. We formulated it with a blend of Shea Butter and Coconut Oil to provide deep, cushiony hydration without a heavy feel.

What does the formula feel like on the skin?
The dense-yet-airy texture comes from a combination of emulsifiers, thickeners, and lightweight oils that trap air during the whipping process. When you open the jar, you’ll notice a cushiony, almost sponge-like texture—and a silky slip as you apply it. Dew Body Butter is definitely one of our most hydrating products, right before Moisture Rich Body Balm. It spreads easily, melts luxuriously into the skin, and helps keep skin feeling soft and hydrated throughout the day. The finish is natural with a non-greasy, healthy-looking sheen.
How is Dew Body Butter different from Luminous Body Lotion? And from Moisture Rich Body Balm?
Luminous Body Lotion is a lighter moisturizer with a plush texture. It's perfect for everyday hydration and skin-soothing.

Dew Body Butter is much richer—with a whipped, cushiony feel that delivers deeper hydration while helping address signs of aging.

Moisture Rich Body Balm is our most intensive hydration level. It’s denser and more occlusive, making it ideal for very dry areas or when you want a more protective layer.
What role do Marine-Derived Sugar Polymers play in the formula?
Marine-Derived Sugar Polymers help brighten the skin by reducing the appearance of dark spots and softening their visible edges. Derived from sugar polymers found in the ocean off southeastern France, this ingredient is produced through blue biotechnology to create a high-molecular-weight polymer that actually sits on the surface of the skin, acting like a breathable shield. That shield helps protect against environmental stressors which can contribute to oxidative stress, and over time, hyperpigmentation and uneven tone.
What about Olive Tree Stem Cells?
Olive trees are known for their longevity, living for over 1,000 years. Olive Tree Stem Cells—sourced from olive tree sprouts—provide an oil-rich lipid that helps reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles while helping improve hydration and barrier integrity. This ingredient also helps encourage collagen production, resulting in more resilient, youthful-looking skin over time.
THE CONSUMER RESULTS
With Dew Body Butter, 98% said their skin felt softer and healthier.*
How often should I use it?
As often as you’d like! For best results, we recommend using it daily, both morning and night.
What benefits can someone expect immediately versus with consistent use?
Almost immediately, you’ll notice deep hydration, nourishment, and a natural-looking glow. With continued use, Dew Body Butter helps visibly brighten and smooth the look of crepiness while supporting collagen and elasticity. Once you try it, it’s one of those products you’ll keep reaching for. The results are really miraculous.
