Fall is here… and your skin can feel it! With falling temperatures and drier air, our skin tends to lose its natural moisture, becoming drier, rougher, and sometimes even uncomfortable. Now is the perfect time to incorporate a good body moisturizer into your daily routine!
Whether you’re looking for a light texture or an ultra-rich balm, here are our favourite body moisturizers.

MOISTURIZE YOUR SKIN LIKE A PRO
Here are our top tips for applying body moisturizer correctly to maximize its benefits and keep your skin soft and nourished, especially when temperatures drop:
1. Apply To Slightly Damp Skin
Right after showering or bathing, gently pat your skin with a towel without drying it completely. The remaining moisture helps seal in hydration when you apply your moisturizer.
2. Choose the Right Type of Moisturizer
*Milk or lotion: ideal for normal to slightly dry skin.
*Cream or balm: perfect for very dry or sensitive skin, especially in winter.
3. Massage Gently
Take the time to massage the product in circular motions. This stimulates circulation and helps with absorption.
4. Don’t Wait
Apply your moisturizer within 3 to 5 minutes after showering. This is when your skin is most receptive.
5. Focus on Dry Areas
Elbows, knees, legs, hands, and feet are often the most affected by dryness. Don’t hesitate to apply a more generous layer to these areas.
6. Moisturize Morning and Night, if Necessary
In very cold weather or if your skin is particularly dry, applying moisturizer morning and night can make all the difference.
