Bodylotions dienen dem Zweck, ausgetrocknete Haut mit Feuchtigkeit zu versorgen und dem unangenehmen Spannungsgefühl entgegenzuwirken. Um die Haut wieder geschmeidig zu machen, kann die Körperlotion direkt nach dem Duschen oder Baden aufgetragen werden. Dies ist wichtig, da das Wasser der Haut Feuchtigkeit entzieht. Sie sollten die Lotion sanft, mit kreisenden Bewegungen einmassieren und so der Haut die verlorene Feuchtigkeit zurückgeben. Achten Sie auch auf andere mögliche Ursachen von trockener, spannender oder gar schuppender Haut. Häufiges Duschen, Kälte oder trockene Innenraumluft gehören zu den Gründen. Bei Kälte produziert die Haut weniger Talg und trocknet so schneller aus. Deswegen sollten Sie insbesondere im Winter darauf achten, Ihre Haut zu pflegen.
Im Winter verstärkt sich oft das Problem mit trockener Haut, da Heizungsluft in der Regel sehr trocken ist. Hier kann ein Luftbefeuchter (Test) helfen. Wichtig ist in dieser Jahreszeit, die Haut nicht noch zusätzlich zu stressen. Laut Dermatologen reicht es aus, jeden zweiten Tag zu duschen beziehungsweise direkt nach dem Sport. Drehen Sie den Temperaturregler nicht zu stark auf, da heißes Wasser der natürlichen Fettschicht der Haut besonders zusetzt.
Allergiker und speziell Neurodermitiker sollten auf Lotionen mit Duft- und Konservierungsstoffen verzichten, da diese die Haut nur noch weiter reizen würden. Nach dem Motto „Weniger ist mehr“ ist es besser, nur wenig Lotion aufzutragen und die Produkte möglichst selten zu wechseln.
Much like fatty acids can be beneficial to human health, coconut oil is chock-full of fatty acids that are important in maintaining healthy skin, Goldstein explains.
These include a range of saturated fats and short- and medium-chain fatty acids, including lauric acid.
According to a 2019 study, these medium-chain fatty acids help contribute to skin elasticity and suppleness.
Lauric acid is particularly known for positive effects on skin health. A 2018 study revealed that the monolaurin derived from lauric acid exhibits both antiviral and antifungal activity.
“Coconut oil can help with cracks and water loss in the top layer of the skin by providing key essential fatty lipids,” Goldstein said. “These lipids improve the barrier function of the skin, allowing it to feel supple and hydrated as a result.”
Because of these antibacterial properties, a 2009 study revealed that lauric acid can also be potentially useful in alleviating symptoms associated with acne vulgaris.
“Coconut oil has medium-chain fatty acids such as linoleic acid,” she added. “This helps trap water in the skin.”
Lighter and drier-feeling than competitors, once rubbed in. Better for people with normal to oily skin.
Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion was the favorite lotion among our panel of testers, in fact, it was the only product that every person liked. Though some lotions were too thick or too thin, Aveeno was just right: It’s thick enough that it doesn’t run everywhere, but thin enough to rub in smoothly. Unlike many of its competitors, it dries nicely, leaving behind little or no waxy or greasy residue to bother you throughout the day. And it hit all of our main criteria: It’s fragrance-free, affordable (less than 50¢ per ounce), and available in a pump dispenser.
Aveeno’s texture struck the best balance between thick and thin. When you pump it into your hand, it’s solid enough to hold its shape without threatening to spill onto the floor or run between your fingers. But the magic is in the rub-in: Aveeno nearly liquefies on the skin, turning from opaque to translucent, and spreads to cover a wide area without clumping or leaving streaks. Then it dries quickly. Some testers noted a light waxy residue, but it was nothing compared with the greasiness of some of its competitors.
Aveeno nearly liquefies on the skin, turning from opaque to translucent, and spreads to cover a wide area without clumping or leaving streaks.
What we also liked about Aveeno is that it doesn’t smell like much, one Amazon reviewer describes it as “one part Elmer’s glue and 10 parts water and 10 parts oatmeal,” and that sounds about right. The scent is unnoticeable under clothes and doesn’t come from added fragrances, a common cause of irritation and allergies. All of this might not sound like high praise, but it is when compared with the scents of some competitors, which our testers described as “perfumey,” “horrible,” “awful,” and “disgusting.” We’d pick neutral over “weird” any day.
