Lichtblauwe bodylotion - Verfrissende Verzorging voor je Huid

Who should buy this

If you’ve ever experienced dry and itchy skin, you should keep a bottle of lotion around. Lotion is a cheap and easy way to keep your skin healthy so that it can hold up against infection and inflammation.

Even age affects your skin’s moisture level. As we age, our skin produces less oil.

Some factors make some people more susceptible to dry skin than others: A dry climate pulls water from your skin unless you use lotion to hold it in place, certain seasons may be drier where you live, or your genetics may mean your body doesn’t produce enough oil to keep your skin healthy in the climate you live in. Depending on where you land, you may need to use lotion more or less frequently than other people.

Do you have a job that requires you to handle harsh chemicals or wash your hands frequently—like dishwashing, medicine, food service, child care, or hairdressing? You probably need a lotion to protect and heal your skin.

Even age affects your skin’s moisture level. As we age, our skin produces less oil (especially on our arms and legs) with a sharp decrease around age 40. Health problems, like diabetes or kidney disease, can also cause dry skin.

If you have a known allergy to common skincare ingredients (and the vast majority of people don’t, see our What’s in there section), you should stick to those products that don’t irritate your skin. Same for those with chronic dry skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis, this pick may work for you, but you might need a heavier or prescription moisturizer.

Best for Pale Skin

Tom Ford Soleil Blanc Shimmering Body Oil

Why We Love It: Finding a body shimmer that works well with light skin tones can be a challenge. A tinted product runs the risk of your body looking much darker than your face, while an overdose of shimmer, especially the gold variety, can bring out yellow undertones. But the search can stop here: Tom Ford's shimmering body oil works beautifully with pale and light skin, creating a flattering, natural, and glossy radiance without adding too much pigment. It also helps to hydrate and soften the skin, thanks to a lovely blend of plant oils.

Who It’s For: Like any scented product, the fragrance can be polarizing. The aroma is typical Tom Ford: Sultry, floral, and spicy-sweet, courtesy of the cocktail of white florals, amber accords, and sandalwood. While we're head over heels for the captivating scent, others may want something lighter for a summer day.

Key Ingredients: Jojoba seed, olive oil, safflower oil | Shades: 2 | Scent: Amber-sandalwood, with a touch of white florals | Size: 1.57 oz
