Benefits

Moisturisation: The primary function of our body lotions is to provide moisture to your dry or dehydrated skin. With key ingredients to create a protective barrier that locks in moisture, keeping the skin hydrated for extended periods.

Skin Repair: These ingredients can help repair damaged skin and may even alleviate minor skin irritations.

Improved Skin Texture: Regular use of body lotion can improve the texture of your skin.

How to Use

Steps to Use Body Lotion

Cleanse Your Skin: Start with clean skin. You can apply body lotion right after a shower or bath, as your pores will be open, making it easier for the skin to absorb the lotion.

Pat Dry: After your shower or bath, gently pat your skin dry with a towel. Leave it slightly damp to help lock in moisture.

Take Some Lotion: Dispense a small amount of body lotion onto your palm. You can always add more as needed.

Warm It Up: Rub the lotion between your hands to warm it up for easier application.

Apply in Sections: Instead of trying to moisturise your whole body at once, focus on one area at a time. Use circular motions to massage the lotion into your skin.

Use Enough, but Not Too Much: You want to use enough lotion to cover your skin lightly and evenly. Using too much can leave your skin feeling greasy, while using too little may not provide enough moisturisation.

Pay Attention to Dry Areas: Elbows, knees, and heels often require a little extra lotion due to their tendency to be drier than other areas.

Let It Absorb: Allow a few minutes for the lotion to fully absorb into your skin before putting on clothes. This prevents the lotion from rubbing off and ensures maximum absorption.

Reapply as Needed: Depending on your skin type and the climate, you may need to reapply lotion later in the day.

Very nice moisturiser

Even if I didn't have allergies, I would like this product very much. It is very smooth going on, and leaves my skin very soft. The fact that it is hypoallergenic is a big bonus. Some natural products include nut oils, which don't work when you have a child with a nut allergy so it's great that this moisturiser does not. Highly recommended.

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive review! We are delighted to hear that our Hypoallergenic Body Moisturiser is working well for you and that you appreciate the fact that it is gentle on sensitive skin. We understand the importance of avoiding certain ingredients for those with allergies and we are happy to provide a product that is safe for all. Thank you for recommending our product, we truly appreciate it. Have a great day!

Hypoallergenic Body Moisturiser for Sensitive Skin

Are Body Lotions Necessary?

Body lotions can be considered necessary for many people, especially those who want to maintain healthy, hydrated, and smooth skin. While individual skincare needs can vary based on factors such as skin type, climate, and personal preference, using a body lotion provides several key benefits that contribute to overall skin health. Here’s why body lotions are important and often considered a necessary part of a skincare routine:

Hydration and Moisture Retention

Prevents Dryness: Our body lotions help keep the skin hydrated by providing a barrier that locks in moisture. This is especially important in areas prone to dryness, such as elbows, knees, and feet. Using a body lotion regularly can prevent the skin from becoming rough, flaky, or cracked.

Restores Skin’s Natural Moisture: Environmental factors like cold weather, wind, sun exposure, and indoor heating can strip the skin of its natural moisture. Body lotions replenish lost moisture and help maintain the skin’s natural hydration levels, keeping it soft and supple.

Improves Skin Texture

Softens and Smooths Skin: Regular use of our body lotions can improve the texture of the skin, making it feel smoother and more touchable. Ingredients in our body lotions are known for their ability to soften and smooth the skin.

Reduces Rough Patches: Areas of the body that experience friction or pressure, such as elbows, knees, and feet, can develop rough patches. Applying body lotion to these areas helps reduce roughness and maintain a more even texture.

Maintains Skin Elasticity and Firmness

Anti-Aging Benefits: Our body lotions contain ingredients to help maintain the skin’s elasticity and firmness. These ingredients support the skin’s structure, making it look more youthful and preventing sagging or wrinkles.

Nourishes the Skin: Body lotions often contain vitamins and antioxidants, that nourish the skin and protect it from environmental damage. These nutrients help to keep the skin healthy and resilient.

Protects the Skin Barrier

Creates a Protective Layer: Our body lotions form a protective barrier on the skin's surface, shielding it from external irritants such as pollutants, bacteria, and harsh weather conditions. This barrier helps prevent moisture loss and protects the skin’s natural barrier function.

Soothes Irritation: For people with sensitive skin, our body lotions can provide relief from irritation and discomfort and have soothing properties that can calm inflamed or irritated skin.

Enhances the Appearance of the Skin

Adds a Healthy Glow: Our body lotions often contain light-reflecting ingredients or oils that give the skin a natural, healthy glow. This can improve the overall appearance of the skin, making it look vibrant and well-cared-for.

Prevents and Treats Skin Conditions

Helps with Conditions like Eczema: Body lotions designed for sensitive or eczema-prone skin can help manage symptoms by providing intensive moisture and soothing the skin. These lotions are often formulated to be hypoallergenic and free from irritants. Have a look at our full range of sensitive skin products to go with these lotions.

Prevents Flare-Ups: For those with chronic skin conditions like psoriasis or dermatitis, regular use of body lotion can help prevent flare-ups by keeping the skin hydrated and reducing the risk of irritation.

Self-Care and Relaxation

Aromatherapy Benefits: Many body lotions are infused with fragrances that provide aromatherapy benefits, such as lavender for relaxation or citrus for an energy boost. Applying body lotion can be a soothing and enjoyable part of a self-care routine.

Stress Relief: The act of massaging lotion into the skin can be a calming ritual that helps reduce stress and promote relaxation, contributing to overall well-being.

Adapts to Different Skin Needs

Variety of Formulations: Our body lotions are available in a wide range of formulations, catering to different skin types and concerns. Whether you have dry, oily, sensitive, or normal skin, there is likely a body lotion that suits your specific needs.

How To Use A Body Lotion Effectively ?

Using body lotion effectively is key to maximising its benefits, keeping your skin hydrated, smooth, and healthy. Here are some tips and steps to ensure you're getting the most out of your body lotion:

Choose the Right Body Lotion

Skin Type Consideration: Select one of our body lotions that suits your skin type. For oily or acne-prone skin, choose a lightweight lotion that won’t clog pores. Sensitive skin types should look for fragrance-free, hypoallergenic options with soothing ingredients.

Specific Skin Concerns: If you have specific concerns such as aging, uneven skin tone, or sun protection, look for lotions formulated with ingredients that address these needs, such as retinol for anti-aging, niacinamide for brightening, or SPF for sun protection.

Apply After Showering or Bathing

Moisturise Damp Skin: The best time to apply body lotion is right after a shower or bath, while your skin is still slightly damp. This is when your skin can absorb moisture most effectively. The lotion helps to lock in the water on your skin, providing longer-lasting hydration.

Pat Skin Dry: Gently pat your skin dry with a towel after your shower, but don’t completely dry off. Leave some moisture on your skin to enhance the effectiveness of the lotion.

Use the Right Amount

Adequate Coverage: Use enough lotion to cover your entire body without over-applying. A coin-sized amount per area (arms, legs, torso) is usually sufficient. Adjust the amount based on the lotion’s consistency and your skin’s needs.

Avoid Excess: Using too much lotion can lead to a greasy feeling and may cause the product to sit on the surface of the skin rather than being absorbed. Start with a smaller amount and add more if needed.

Apply Evenly and Thoroughly

Work in Sections: Apply the lotion in sections (e.g., legs, arms, torso) to ensure even coverage. This makes it easier to apply the right amount and avoid missing any spots.

Use Gentle, Circular Motions: Massage the lotion into your skin using gentle, circular motions. This not only helps the lotion absorb better but also stimulates blood circulation, which can improve skin health.

Pay Attention to Dry Areas: Focus on areas that are prone to dryness, such as elbows, knees, feet, and hands. These areas may need a little extra lotion to stay hydrated and soft.

Layering and Mixing Products

Layer with Other Products: If you use other body care products like serums or oils, apply them in the correct order. Generally, lighter products (like serums) should be applied first, followed by heavier products (like body oils) and then lotion. This layering technique helps seal in moisture and maximises the benefits of each product.

Mixing for Extra Hydration: For extra hydration, you can mix a few drops of our body oil with your lotion before applying it. This can enhance the moisturising effect, especially in colder months or for extremely dry skin.

Regular Use for Best Results

Daily Application: For optimal hydration and skin health, apply body lotion at least once a day. In dry or cold climates, you may need to apply lotion more frequently, such as morning and night, to maintain moisture levels.

Consistency is Key: Regular use helps maintain the skin’s moisture barrier and prevents dryness. Make applying lotion a part of your daily routine, just like you would with facial skincare products.

Use Before Bedtime

Nighttime Routine: Applying body lotion before bed is an excellent way to keep your skin hydrated overnight. Nighttime is when your skin naturally goes into repair mode, and using lotion can aid in this process. Choose a richer lotion for nighttime use to provide deep hydration.

Enhance with Cotton Pajamas: Wearing soft, breathable cotton pajamas after applying lotion can help lock in moisture and prevent the lotion from rubbing off onto your sheets.

Special Considerations

Sunscreen: If you’re using a body lotion with SPF, apply it in the morning and reapply as needed, especially if you’re spending time outdoors. Remember that SPF lotions should be reapplied every two hours when exposed to direct sunlight.

Avoid Irritants: If you have sensitive skin or conditions like eczema, avoid lotions with strong fragrances, alcohol, or other potential irritants. Stick to gentle, fragrance-free formulations designed for sensitive skin.

Are Body Lotions Good For Aging Skin?

Yes, our body lotions can be highly beneficial for aging skin. As we age, our skin naturally undergoes changes that can lead to dryness, thinning, and the appearance of wrinkles and age spots. Using our body lotion regularly can help address these issues by providing hydration, improving skin texture, and delivering key anti-aging ingredients. Here’s how body lotions benefit aging skin:

Provides Essential Hydration

Prevents Dryness: Aging skin tends to produce less natural oil, leading to dryness. Body lotions help replenish moisture, keeping the skin hydrated and preventing it from becoming dry, flaky, or itchy. This is especially important in maintaining the skin’s elasticity and smoothness.

Improves Moisture Retention: Ingredients commonly found in our body lotions, help draw moisture into the skin and lock it in. This helps maintain a healthy skin barrier, which is crucial for keeping the skin soft and supple.

Improves Skin Texture and Elasticity

Softens Rough Skin: With age, the skin can become rougher and less smooth. Body lotions can gently remove dead skin cells, improving skin texture and promoting a softer, more refined appearance.

Enhances Elasticity: Our lotions help support the skin’s structure and improve elasticity. These ingredients can reduce the appearance of sagging and help the skin maintain its firmness.

Prevents Further Wrinkles: Keeping the skin well-hydrated with body lotion can plump up fine lines, making them less noticeable. Moisturised skin is more resilient and less prone to developing new wrinkles, as it maintains better elasticity.

Protects Against Environmental Damage

Antioxidants: Aging skin is more vulnerable to damage from environmental stressors like UV radiation and pollution. Body lotions containing antioxidants help protect the skin by neutralising free radicals that cause oxidative stress and damage.

Regular Use: Consistent application of body lotions can lead to a more uniform complexion over time, reducing the visibility of age-related dark spots.

Supports Skin Repair and Healing

Soothing and Nourishing: Aging skin is more prone to irritation and slower to heal. Body lotions with soothing ingredients help calm and nourish the skin, promoting faster recovery and reducing inflammation.

Barrier Repair: Ingredients in body lotions help strengthen the skin’s natural barrier. This is crucial for aging skin, which can become more fragile and susceptible to damage. A strong barrier helps prevent moisture loss and protects against external irritants.

Enhances Overall Skin Appearance

Adds Radiance: Body lotions can enhance the natural radiance of the skin, making it look healthier and more vibrant. Ingredients that provide a dewy finish or contain light-reflecting particles can give the skin a youthful glow.

Improves Skin Tone: Over time, regular use of body lotions with exfoliating or brightening ingredients can improve skin tone and texture, making the skin look more even and revitalised.

Promotes Self-Care and Well-Being

Relaxation and Stress Relief: The act of applying body lotion can be a soothing self-care ritual that helps reduce stress and promote relaxation. Scented body lotions with calming fragrances like lavender or sandalwood can enhance this experience, contributing to overall well-being.

Boosts Confidence: Keeping the skin well-moisturised and cared for can boost confidence, as the skin looks and feels healthier. This can have a positive impact on one’s self-image and emotional well-being.

Can You Apply Body Lotion To The Face?

While our body lotions can technically be applied to the face, it's generally not recommended. The skin on your face is more delicate, sensitive, and has different needs compared to the skin on your body. Here’s why it's better to use products specifically formulated for facial skin and the considerations to keep in mind:

Difference in Skin Sensitivity

Delicate Facial Skin: Facial skin is thinner and more sensitive than the skin on the body. It also contains more sebaceous (oil) glands, making it more prone to conditions like acne, sensitivity, and irritation. Body lotions are typically formulated to address the thicker, tougher skin of the body, which can tolerate heavier, more occlusive products.

Potential for Irritation: Our body lotions may contain fragrances, preservatives, or other ingredients that could irritate facial skin. These ingredients might be suitable for less sensitive body areas but can cause reactions on the face, such as redness, itching, or breakouts.

Ingredient Formulation

Different Ingredients: Body lotions often contain ingredients that are more moisturising and thicker emollients. While these are excellent for softening and protecting the skin on the body, they can be too heavy for facial skin, leading to clogged pores and acne.

Lack of Targeted Ingredients: Facial moisturisers are often formulated with specific active ingredients tailored to address facial skin concerns, such as anti-aging, oil control, acne prevention, or sensitivity. Body lotions may not contain these targeted ingredients, so they may not provide the same benefits as facial products.

Risk of Clogged Pores and Acne

Comedogenic Potential: Body lotions are usually thicker and contain ingredients that might lead to blackheads, whiteheads, and acne when used on the face. People with oily or acne-prone skin are particularly at risk if they use body lotions on their face.

Facial Skin Needs: Facial skin typically requires a lighter product that hydrates without clogging pores. These are formulated to balance hydration with the need to keep pores clear, which is crucial for preventing acne.

pH Balance

pH Differences: The ideal pH for facial skin care products is around 4.5 to 5.5, which helps maintain the skin’s natural acid mantle, protecting against bacteria and environmental damage. Body lotions may not be pH-balanced for facial skin, which could disrupt the skin's natural pH and lead to sensitivity or irritation.

Specialised Needs of Facial Skin

Targeted Treatments: Facial skin often needs targeted treatments for concerns such as fine lines, hyperpigmentation, acne, or rosacea. Facial moisturisers and serums are specifically formulated to address these issues effectively, while body lotions are more general-purpose.

Lighter Formulation: Facial products are designed to be lighter and absorb quickly without leaving a greasy residue, which is important for comfort and efficacy, especially when layering with other facial products like serums and makeup.

When It Might Be Okay

In a Pinch: If you don’t have a facial moisturiser on hand, using a body lotion once in a while is unlikely to cause major problems, especially if you choose a body lotion that is free from fragrances, parabens, and other potentially irritating ingredients. Look for a gentle, hypoallergenic body lotion that’s closer in formulation to facial products.

Severely Dry Skin: In cases of severely dry skin, a heavier body lotion might provide relief. However, it's still advisable to seek a facial moisturiser formulated for sensitive or dry skin to ensure the best care for facial skin needs.

How Often Should I Apply Body Lotion?

The frequency of applying our body lotion depends on various factors, including your skin type, climate, and personal skincare needs. For most people, applying body lotion daily is recommended to maintain healthy, hydrated skin. Here's a more detailed guide on how often you should apply body lotion:

Daily Application for General Maintenance

Once a Day: For most people, applying body lotion once a day is sufficient to keep the skin moisturised and healthy. This routine helps prevent dryness, maintain the skin's moisture barrier, and keep the skin soft and smooth. The best time to apply body lotion is after a shower or bath when the skin is still damp, as this helps lock in moisture.

Morning Routine: Applying body lotion in the morning can help protect the skin throughout the day, especially if the lotion contains SPF or antioxidants to shield against environmental damage.

Night Routine: Applying our body lotion before bed allows it to work overnight, helping to repair and nourish the skin while you sleep. This is particularly beneficial for areas prone to dryness, such as elbows, knees, and feet.

Twice a Day for Dry or Dehydrated Skin

Morning and Night: If you have very dry or dehydrated skin, you may need to apply body lotion twice a day—once in the morning and once at night. This routine provides continuous hydration and helps prevent the skin from becoming rough, flaky, or itchy.

Thicker Formulas at Night: Consider using a richer, more emollient lotion or body butter at night for intense hydration and repair, while using a lighter lotion during the day to avoid a greasy feel.

In Response to Environmental Factors

Cold Weather: In cold, dry climates, the skin loses moisture more quickly due to low humidity and indoor heating. Applying body lotion multiple times a day can help combat dryness caused by these conditions. Use a thicker, more occlusive lotion to provide a barrier against moisture loss.

Hot Weather: In hot, humid weather, you might need to apply lotion less frequently. Opt for a lightweight, non-greasy lotion that absorbs quickly to keep the skin hydrated without feeling sticky.

After Specific Activities

After Showering or Bathing: The best time to apply body lotion is right after showering or bathing when the skin is still slightly damp. This helps lock in moisture and keeps the skin hydrated. If you shower more than once a day, apply lotion each time to prevent dryness.

After Swimming: Chlorine and saltwater can dry out the skin. Applying body lotion after swimming helps replenish moisture and protect the skin from dryness and irritation.

After Shaving: Shaving can remove natural oils and cause skin irritation. Applying body lotion after shaving helps soothe the skin and restore moisture, leaving the skin soft and smooth.

Targeting Specific Skin Concerns

Problem Areas: If you have areas prone to dryness, such as hands, feet, elbows, and knees, you may need to apply lotion to these areas more frequently throughout the day. Carrying a small bottle of lotion with you can make it easier to apply as needed.

Sensitive Skin: For sensitive skin, use a gentle, fragrance-free lotion and apply it as often as needed to maintain comfort and hydration. Pay attention to how your skin feels and apply more frequently if you notice any dryness or irritation.

Special Considerations

Sun Protection: If you’re using a body lotion with SPF, apply it in the morning and reapply as needed, especially if you’re spending time outdoors. Reapply every two hours or after swimming or sweating for effective sun protection.

Will Body Lotion Help Sunburn?

Yes, body lotion can help soothe and moisturise sunburned skin, but it’s important to choose the right type of lotion and apply it correctly to avoid further irritation. Here’s how body lotion can help with sunburn and what to consider when using it:

Hydration and Moisture Retention

Replenishes Lost Moisture: Sunburn can dehydrate the skin by damaging its outer layer, leading to dryness and peeling. Body lotion helps to replenish lost moisture, providing hydration that can soothe and soften the skin.

Prevents Peeling: By keeping the sunburned skin moisturised, body lotion can help reduce the severity of peeling and flaking, which often occur after a sunburn. This helps maintain the skin’s appearance and comfort.

Choosing the Right Body Lotion

Fragrance-Free and Gentle: Sunburned skin is more sensitive and prone to irritation. Choose our body lotion that is fragrance-free, dye-free, and formulated for sensitive skin to avoid causing further irritation.

Alcohol-Free: Avoid lotions that contain alcohol, as it can dry out the skin and exacerbate the discomfort of a sunburn. Look for products labeled as "alcohol-free" to ensure they are safe for use on sunburned skin.

Hydrating Ingredients: Our lotions have hydrating ingredients that can help draw moisture into the skin and repair the skin barrier, which is crucial for healing sunburned skin.

How to Apply Body Lotion on Sunburned Skin

Cool the Skin First: Before applying lotion, cool the sunburned area with a cold compress or a cool shower. This helps reduce heat and inflammation, making the skin more receptive to the soothing effects of the lotion.

Apply Gently: Sunburned skin is tender and can be easily irritated. Apply body lotion gently using light, patting motions rather than rubbing it in vigorously. This minimises discomfort and avoids further damage to the sensitive skin.

Use Generously: Apply a generous amount of lotion to the sunburned area to ensure adequate coverage and hydration. Reapply as needed to keep the skin moisturised and soothed.

Reapply Frequently: To maintain hydration and relief, reapply body lotion several times a day, especially if the skin feels dry or tight. Keeping the skin continuously moisturised can aid in the healing process.

When to Use Other Treatments

Severe Sunburn: For severe sunburns with blisters, intense pain, or significant swelling, consult a healthcare professional. In such cases, body lotion may not be sufficient, and additional medical treatment may be necessary.

Aloe Vera Gel: In addition to body lotion, consider using pure aloe vera gel, which is specifically known for its healing properties. Aloe vera gel can be applied directly to sunburned skin to provide targeted relief.

Hydrocortisone Cream: For mild inflammation and itching, an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream can help reduce symptoms. However, it should be used sparingly and not as a primary moisturiser.

Additional Tips for Sunburn Care

Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help hydrate your skin from the inside out. Sunburn can lead to dehydration, so it’s important to replenish fluids.

Avoid Further Sun Exposure: Keep sunburned skin out of the sun to prevent further damage. Wear protective clothing and use sunscreen to shield your skin while it heals.

Cool the Area: Apply cool (not ice-cold) compresses to the sunburned area to help reduce heat and provide relief. Avoid hot showers or baths, as they can exacerbate the pain and dryness.
