Agents that remain on the surface: these form a film that prevents water from evaporating (vegetable oil, mineral oil, beeswax, vegetable waxes).
Emollients and water captors: they moisturize, soften and lubricate the skin, making skin tissue supple + these moisturizers attract water and form reservoirs (glycerin, hyaluronic acid).

How do I choose a body moisturizer?

As with the face, the choice of moisturizer depends on your skin type. If your skin is normal (no tightness, even when you get out of the shower), opt for a milk. Its fluid texture penetrates quickly. Ideal for those who are in a hurry in the morning, and need to get dressed quickly after the shower! For drier skin, a cream texture is recommended. Choose oil-based emulsions or creams containing film-forming agents (collagen, glycerin, elastin, etc.), which protect sensitive skin. Finally, if you have very dry or atopy-prone skin, consider plant oils and butters, with their high moisturizing power.

Choosing the right body moisturizer depends on a number of criteria, such as your skin type, texture and fragrance preferences, and your specific needs. Here are a few tips to help you choose the product that best suits your needs:

Identify your skin type: if you have dry skin, choose creams and balms rich in shea butter, sweet almond oil or argan oil for deep nourishment. If you have normal or combination skin, a light, moisturizing lotion is ideal.
Choose a texture that suits you: creams and balms have a richer texture and are suitable for dry skin, while lotions and milks have a lighter texture and are suitable for normal to combination skin. Oils can be used to deeply moisturize and nourish the skin.
Check the product's composition: opt for a product containing moisturizing ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, urea, sweet almond oil, argan oil or shea butter, to deeply hydrate and nourish the skin.
Check that the product is suitable for your skin: some products are specially designed for sensitive, mature or atopy-prone skin. Check that the product is suitable for your skin type and specific needs.
Test the product: before buying a product, don't hesitate to test its texture, fragrance and ease of application to make sure it suits your preferences.

Did you know that oils are also included in the list of moisturizing skin care products? Available in a variety of fragrances and with a light texture, oils can be a partner of choice to make showering a moment of complete relaxation and care.

Practical and multifunctional, oils can be used to care for face, body and hair. Cocooning treatments par excellence, they moisturize, deeply nourish, repair and sublimate in a single gesture.

By following these tips, you'll be able to find the product that best suits your needs, and keep your skin soft, smooth and moisturized at all times. Once you've carefully chosen your body lotion, what's the best way to apply it every day?

How do I use my moisturizing body lotion?

All skin types need moisturizer: oily skin, irritated skin, dry skin, normal skin, men, teenagers, women and the elderly.

To make the most of the benefits of your moisturizing body care product, here are a few tips for optimal use:

Use moisturizer regularly, ideally once or twice a day, to keep your skin hydrated.
Avoid applying the product to irritated or damaged skin, and avoid contact with the eyes.
Concentrate on the driest, roughest areas, such as elbows, knees and heels.
Take a small amount of product and gently massage into the skin, using circular movements to promote absorption.
Gently massage all over your body until the cream is absorbed. This massage will not only help your skin absorb the product, but also get your blood circulating.
Apply the product to clean, dry skin, preferably after a shower or bath, when the skin is still slightly damp.
Concentrate on areas of the body that tend to be drier: legs, due to waxing or shaving, but also elbows. Also insist on your décolleté to maintain it.
Moisturizing your skin after every shower will give you a real feeling of comfort, to restore softness and suppleness.
Complement the application of your moisturizer by drinking plenty of water, limiting sun exposure and avoiding hot showers or baths, which can dry out the skin.
Nourishing your skin all year round is essential. In winter, moisturizing with a body lotion will help protect it from external factors such as cold and pollution, which can dry and weaken the skin. In summer, nourishing your skin will make it easier to tan and prolong your tan.

By following these tips, you'll be able to take full advantage of the benefits of your moisturizer, leaving your skin soft, smooth and hydrated at all times.
