As a beauty editor, I can confirm that Hailey Bieber has good product recommendations… like, really good product recommendations. Whether they’re from her own brand, Rhode (I can’t wait to try the new eye patches), or any other, I have yet to see her recommend a single product that I don’t also use and love. For example, I love her French pharmacy skin barrier–strengthening cream of choice. I also love her “holy grail” vitamin C serum. You get it.
The other day, Bieber posted a picture of a few products from the Brazilian bodycare brand Gente, claiming she’s “obsessed” with them. Yet again, I found myself nodding in agreement because I too love the products and use them as part of my at-home bodycare routine. Keep scrolling to learn why.

Gente Beauty’s Lymphatic Drainage Oil
Gente Beauty
Lymphatic Drainage Oil Unscented
In her post, Bieber says, “Obsessed with lymphatic drainage massage and obsessed with these oils.” For context, lymphatic drainage refers to the body’s lymphatic system, in which lymph (a clear fluid that circulates through the body) helps flush out cellular waste and debris. The purpose of lymphatic drainage massage is to activate and boost this naturally occurring system, as well as to lend the body a more sculpted appearance.
It seems as though Bieber does the same thing I do, which is use this exact body oil in my at-home lymphatic drainage routine. I’ve only been using it for a few weeks, but I love the body oil for providing slip, moisture, and a subtle sculpting effect. The secret is in the blend of native Brazilian oils that are lightweight enough to be used on the body and face. Here’s a breakdown of each one and the benefits it offers:
-Pataua: An Amazonian oil that deeply moisturizes, strengthens the natural skin barrier, and boosts elasticity. Rich in omega-9 fatty acids.
-Coffee Arabica Seed Oil: An oil sourced from Brazilian coffee beans that energizes the skin with caffeine to boost microcirculation and minimize water retention.
-Mulateiro Extract: An antioxidant-rich ingredient that helps firm the skin.
-Tucumã: An ingredient rich in beta-carotene and fatty acids that boosts the skin’s glow.
This is the unscented version, which I prefer. However, there is a scented version.

Here’s the scented version. It has a fresh tropical scent that’s not too heavy.

Body Gua Sha
Bieber’s post also displayed the brand’s Body Gua Sha, which can be used in tandem with the Lymphatic Drainage Oil. Just like a facial gua sha, this bigger, bodycare version is meant to sculpt and de-puff the contours of the skin, boosting its glow and even relieving muscle tension. To use it, apply some body oil for slip, and then move it in short, upward strokes on the arms and legs. It’s considered best practice to work inward, toward the heart, for lymphatic drainage purposes.
