Dear Body Lotion, You're fired and have been replaced. Please take your cap and leave immediately. Sincerely, My Skin
I've had to switch body lotion. This transition from winter to spring to summer (yes, summer it was 90 degrees today, *hate*) has been truly rough on my skin. Worse than ever, actually. I don't know what happened. I've applied lotion just like usual every time I shower and double after I have shaved my legs. Last month the dryness was been so bad it has kept me awake at night. The itching was constant. I'd apply lotion then feel greasy AND itchy.
After about 3 nights of battling, I decided to switch to a different lotion. No, not a different scent, a complete different formula. They just weren't cutting it anymore. Goodbye, lovely scented B&BW lotions!
Time to find a new lotion. So I headed to Ulta to find something. FAIL! I didn't want to pay over $10 for a good lotion. Walgreens had just what I was looking for…a good collection of options from Jergens, Nivea, Aveeno and Burts Bees. I took a good 20 minutes analyzing and reading the back of bottles.
What I was looking for:
Moisturizing
Light Weight Formula
Fast Absorption
I didn't need "special skin" formula for revitalizing, skin firming, or tightening. I just wanted lotion!
Enter Nivea Body Smooth Sensation!
It's been my saviour! It had all the qualities I was looking for. I've been using for about 2 weeks, sometimes applying it twice daily! If I feel an itch, Nivea is applied. The "absorbs quickly" claim is the absolute truth! I swear, I think I'm in love with a lotion. And I'm actually loving the fact that it doesn't have a strong scent. My perfume stands out more!
My lotion change has worked for the best! If you're considering changing lotion, figure out what you need from it. Look and read the bottles. Knowing what you need will benefit you!
What kind of lotion do you use?
