Slather on a luscious lotion that's formulated with nourishing ingredients that enhance your skin type to look and feel its best. Nava Greenfield, MD, a board-certified dermatologist at Schweiger Dermatology Group in New York City, says some of the best ingredients to look for in your body moisturizers include emollients like hydrating hyaluronic acid and moisturizing additives like glycerin, ceramides, and oils derived from coconut, almond, avocado, or jojoba. She also says to look for formulas that include free radical-fighting antioxidants like vitamins B, C, or E. There are countless remedies for dry skin, but only a few body lotions that moisturize better than the rest. To find the products that actually stave off dryness, the Good Housekeeping Institute Beauty Lab regularly tests all types of moisturizers, including face lotions, hand creams, night creams, moisturizers for dry skin and sensitive skin, and so much more.

Published 2022 Sep 17. doi:10.3390/molecules27186076 According to James Y. Wang, MD, a board-certified dermatologist based in Los Angeles, mildly exfoliating body lotions are ideal for all skin types, especially those who have concerns over body acne. "This is especially important in acne-prone skin because the skin barrier is disrupted and there is underlying inflammation," he says. "Lotions that contain mild glycolic, lactic, or salicylic acid can be helpful as long as they are not overused, which can lead to sensitivity." Dr. Greenfield also adds that acne-prone skin types should avoid ingredients that are considered occlusive, including heavy, petroleum-jelly-based creams or oils because they can trap bacteria under the skin.Sobhan M, et al.

Our whole body, including the roughest spots, was silky smooth and soft. We really liked how it smells (and so does TikTok, by the way), but we know scented products aren't necessarily for everyone.

If you’re looking for a two-in-one moisturizer that doubles as an SPF, this one could be a great option for you. Supergoop's Play Everyday Lotion is a hard-working SPF that slathers on nicely and is something you will actually want to wear daily, considering it doesn't leave a white cast or greasy finish. This fragrance-free, fast-absorbing moisturizer is suitable for all skin types. We highly recommend this option to pretty much everyone in need of full-body hydration. While it is gentle, niacinamide in this formula can burn freshly shaven skin for some.Matts P, Oblong J. A review of the range of effects of niacinamide in human skin. Int Fed Soc Cosmet Chem Mag.

This is a good option for anyone interested in spending a bit more money in exchange for a product that can add a little bit of luxury to everyday life. This product smells incredible, so whether you save it for yourself or gift it to a friend, it’s sure to make applying moisturizer that much more enjoyable. Just keep in mind that heavily fragranced products aren’t for everyone (some people can have skin allergies to fragrance).
