Body Moisturisers

Just as a facial moisturiser softens and protects your face and neck skin, a moisturiser for your body plays the same role. It’s just as important, too! The best body moisturisers are formulated with ingredients to lock in moisture among other great additions, like antioxidants and skin-firming ingredients. 

Why Use a Body Moisturiser

A crucial part of the skin’s structure is something called the moisture barrier - it has a critical role in ensuring that skin doesn’t get too dry and that it works just as it should. How does body moisturiser help?

For starters, a body moisturiser helps to keep hydration in the skin. They're formulated with ingredients like hyaluronic acid and shea butter to draw water to the skin and keep it there. Skin will feel immediately softer and smoother!

How to Choose the Best All Over Body Moisturiser

The great thing about body moisturisers is they come in all kinds of textures - if you’re looking for a super-rich, luxurious texture, reach for cream moisturisers. They tend to have a blend of ingredients that’s heavier on the oil side for super-powered moisturisation.

A regular body lotion or body milk is the perfect not too light, yet not too heavy formula. They’re lightweight enough not to feel sticky and heavy on the skin, yet don’t leave skin feeling dry and thirsty for more. The best all-over body moisturiser for you depends on what you like to feel on your skin!

Body oils are a great option for moisturising skin and for massage. Since they’re pure oils, they don’t have any extra ingredients like glycerin to attract water to the skin. However, oils really shine (literally) by adding a noticeable, dewy radiance to skin - almost like body makeup!
