For years I’ve had a multi-step skincare routine, I wouldn’t dream of not applying sunscreen every morning, and never go to bed without removing my makeup first. I take skincare very seriously, but when it comes to bodycare, I’m ashamed to admit that in the past I’ve been far less committed, and especially as far as hydration was concerned, my attitude was ‘pretty much anything goes’.
The thing is, as a beauty editor I’m sent hundreds of products every month, and with multiple bottles of body lotion gathering dust on my shelves, for 2023 I set myself the new year’s resolution of committing to daily body lotion application. Now I have to admit, it wasn’t easy. Getting out of the shower and standing in the cold applying moisturiser is really not my idea of fun. But the thing is, the skin on your body needs moisture just as much as the skin on your face. Whether your skin is naturally oily, dry or sensitive, keeping it hydrated is key to its health. I certainly never thought I had particularly dry skin on my arms and legs, but once I started applying body lotion daily, I realised just how much of a difference it makes…
For starters, my skin feels so much softer and smoother. I don’t find myself having to exfoliate as much, my fake tan lasts for days longer than it used to, and there’s something very comforting about that clean, fresh, body lotion scent lingering on skin all day long.
