There’s nothing worse than greasy, thick moisturizer in hot weather. Not only can overly occlusive formulas leave an oily residue, they can clog pores and lead to body breakouts — gross. This season, trade in your body butter for one of these editor-approved lightweight lotions instead.
This oil-free gel formula glides on easily and leaves skin soft for hours, minus the slippery feel of heavier lotions. Marine botanicals like wakame kelp and sea lettuce provide a nutrient boost for skin.
There’s a reason this creamy lotion is a bestseller: not only does it manage to be both rich and non-greasy, it leaves legs and arms with the most gorgeous, subtle sheen. And since it’s unscented, it won’t clash with your fragrance.
You know how getting a little sun makes your skin tone look more even and all-around glowier? This new tinted BB for body does just that, minus the harmful UV rays.
You still need to rub it in, but this spray-on lotion will shave a few seconds off your getting ready time — precious moments, indeed. The coconutty floral scent is like summer in a bottle.
If you’re plagued with keratosis pilaris bumps — the hereditary annoyance also known as “chicken skin” — the gently exfoliating 12 percent lactic acid in this formula will help clear it up. Hello, short skirts.
Not down with slathering your body with unpronounceable ingredients? We can’t blame you. This hydrating blend of organic aloe vera, coconut oil and sesame oil has a fresh citrus scent that will put some spring in your step.
One whiff of this lavender-scented lotion will melt your stress away (the plant’s fragrance has aromatherapeutic relaxation benefits). Its lightweight texture is the perfect consistency for warmer weather.
Not only does this gradual self-tanning moisturizer come with bonus SPF, but the scientists at Jergens have also found a way to (mostly) cover up the telltale DHA scent, which anyone within two feet of you will surely appreciate.
