Sol de Janeiro
One year ago, Sol de Janeiro found itself entangled in the Reddit rumor mill. "If you're scared of wolf spiders—watch out for these lotions," one review claimed about the brand's Delícia Drench body butter. "One of the ingredients is like kryptonite to wolf spiders!" While cosmetic chemists were quick to debunk the urban legend (I repeat: cosmetic chemists debunked this), we can see how the rumor got started. Since its founding in 2015, Sol de Janeiro has been lauded by Sephora tweens and Byrdie editors alike for its delicious, irresistibly tropical fragrances. If humans are obsessed with it, who's to say wolf spiders wouldn't be too?
Now, our shower routines are about to get a lot more irresistible, because the brand is coming out with a shower oil in the same mood-boosting, flower-forward scent. On December 5, Sol de Janeiro launches its Delicia Drench Shower Oil, the brand's first oil-to-foam body wash formula. Ahead, everything you need to know about the launch.

The Fragrance
Lightly scented with the brand's Cheirosa 59 fragrance, the Delicia Drench Shower Oil shares the same yummy scent as the brand's cult-favorite Delicia Drench Body Butter and the Cheirosa 59 Perfume Mist. With notes of vanilla orchid, sugar, sandalwood, and sugared violet, Cheirosa 59 is a sugary, fluffy vanilla scent that's scientifically proven to uplift one's mood. PerfumeTok couldn't agree more: "I look forward to showering because I look forward to putting this on after," one fragrance creator said of the Delicia Drench Body Butter.
The Formula
With a luxurious oil-to-foam formula, the Delicia Drench Shower Oil cleanses dry skin while replenishing it with hydrating ingredients, which makes it perfect for winter bodycare routines.

he shower oil, which is comprised of more than 50% glycerin, is enriched with fermented hibiscus, bacuri butter, and Brazilian oils for a nourishing effect on the skin. The end result? A deeply moisturized and strengthened skin barrier.
