Re: Body Lotion or Cream - Basic Question

I like the Korres Olive Body Creams.  It is never sticky or heavy but very moisturizing.  Perlier Body Creams also feels good on the skin. I recommend the Imperial Honey ones.

@AngelPuppy1    Did you ever consider using an oil for your skin.  There are ones that absorb quickly, Marula oil for one.

Other than my face (which is oily) - I guess my skin is normal.  

 

I do use an olive oil soap in the bath - that's it.

Try applying less product and on damp skin. Slightly wet skin will help make it easier to spread a thicker body cream/butter and that way you won't be using an excess of it where over applying might make it feel sticky. Damp skin also helps make moisturizers absorb better than on dry skin.

Is this product fragrance free?  I can't use anything with fragrance.  Thanks!

I use a bath brush to exfoliate.  Wouldn't that be enough?  I can't use anything too harsh as my skin is very fragile.  Thanks!

Are these products fragrance free?  Anything with a scent is a no-go for me.  Thanks!

I am fearful of mixing too many things on my skin as it is very reactive.  I always apply my lotion or cream right after showering.  Don't know of any nourishing scrubs --- can you suggest?  Must be fragrance free.  Thank you!
