Why We Created Body Care

Why We Created Body Care

Before RMS Beauty was a beauty brand, it was an idea Rose-Marie Swift could not ignore.

As a makeup artist working backstage, on set, and with some of the most recognizable women in the world, Rose-Marie saw what traditional makeup was doing to skin. Not in theory. Up close. Every day. She saw the irritation, the congestion, the dullness, the way products designed to cover skin were often the very things making skin look and feel less healthy.

So she broke the rules.

She created makeup that loved skin back. Makeup made with clean, skin-loving ingredients. Makeup that didn’t ask you to choose between performance and standards. Makeup that understood something Rose-Marie has always known: great looking makeup, starts with well-loved skin.

So why would a makeup brand make body care?

Because RMS has never really been just a makeup brand. We are a skin-first brand. Always have been. Always will be. And beautiful skin doesn’t stop at the face.

We Put Skin First. Now We’re Taking It All Over.

At RMS, skin is never an afterthought. It is the starting point.

That is why our complexion formulas are made to enhance skin, not erase it. It is why our glow products are designed to catch the light without looking glittery. It is why our founder has always been obsessed with ingredients that nourish, soften, hydrate, and support the skin barrier.

So creating body care was not about chasing a category. It was about bringing the RMS philosophy beyond the face.

The body deserves the same thoughtful approach: clean, high-performing ingredients, sensorial textures, and formulas that make skin look healthier, feel softer, and glow without the grease.

Meet Kakadu Body Oil: The Return You Asked For

You asked us to bring back our original body oil, and Rose-Marie listened. But of course, she did not want to simply recreate it. She wanted to make it better.

“You’ve been asking us to bring Body Oil back, and since I have always wanted to add Kakadu and cold-centrifuge coconut oil to the formula, that’s what we did,” says Rose-Marie. “I think of it as an actual skin treatment because it’s so concentrated and effective.”

Kakadu Body Oil is a lightweight, fast-absorbing body oil that delivers concentrated moisture with a soft citrus scent. It sinks in quickly, leaves skin feeling velvety-soft and comfortable, and gives the body a healthy, lit-from-within glow without the greasy finish most other body oils leave behind.

Powered by Kakadu Plum Seed Oil, a vitamin C-rich superfruit oil packed with antioxidants, plus Buriti Oil and a lightweight botanical blend, it helps skin look smoother, softer, and more radiant.

Rose-Marie’s tip? “It’s highly concentrated, so I prefer to use it at night and after sun exposure to nourish the skin.”

Think of it as your evening skin treatment, but for the body.

Meet Kakadu Body Butter: Rich Moisture Without the Heavy Feel

Then there is Kakadu Body Butter, our new whipped body cream made for people who usually hate body creams.

You know the ones: thick, sticky, slow to absorb, sitting on top of skin, making you wait forever before getting dressed. This is not that.

Kakadu Body Butter is ultra-rich, whipped, and deeply moisturizing, but it melts in fast and absorbs cleanly. It leaves skin soft, smooth, comfortable, and subtly radiant with a pearly glow. No shimmer. No sparkle. No greasy residue.

“The texture is beyond belief,” says Rose-Marie. “It is like whipped butter that goes on thick and emollient without the greasy, slimy residue that we experience in other body creams.”

The formula features Shea Butter to soften rough, dry skin, Kakadu Plum Seed Oil to support a brighter, more radiant look, Jojoba Seed Oil to lock in moisture without a greasy feel, and Niacinamide + Plant Peptides to help improve the look of texture and tone.

Rose-Marie’s tip: “Mix in Master Radiance Base and apply everywhere for a ‘golden hour’ glow. Do this anytime, I promise you won’t look oily.”

The RMS Rule: Body Care Should Do More

Here is where we break the rules again.

Body care should not be boring. It should not be an afterthought. It should not feel like a chore you rush through because your skin is dry.

It should make skin look better instantly and feel better over time. It should hydrate without heaviness. Glow without glitter. Nourish without residue. And it should be made with the same ingredient standards we bring to the face.

That is why both Kakadu Body Oil and Kakadu Body Butter are dermatologist tested, suitable for sensitive skin, vegan, cruelty-free, and formulated without silicone, talc, GMOs, parabens, phthalates, sulfates, and synthetic fragrance.

Clean. High-performing. Skin-loving. No compromises.

How to Use Them Together

Use Kakadu Body Oil when you want lightweight nourishment, a dewy glow, and a silky, fast-absorbing finish. Apply it to clean, dry or damp skin, especially at night or after sun exposure.

Use Kakadu Body Butter when your skin needs richer moisture, softness, and a more polished-looking radiance. Massage it all over the body until absorbed.

Use them together when you want the full RMS body ritual: oil first for concentrated nourishment, butter on top for rich hydration and a soft pearly finish.

Healthy-looking skin. Head to toe.
