If you dont mind a tiny scent. (they do also come fragrance free) The aveeno body lotions are the best body lotions that actually do moisturize all day and can provide a minimal not headache inducing scent.

Eat

you've got to eat real food and try and stay away from processed food. It might be intimidating but the laziest option can still be healthy, pick up the apple instead of the twinkie

Now i dont ever buy salmon because we catch enough every year to live off through out the year, but this is a go to lunch or dinner. If you buy seafood, make sure its wild caught for maximum benefits!  it doesnt have to be complicated, you can season these fillets up with montreal steak and fry them up in butter and olive oil and you've got yourself dinner in under ten minutes

Everything else

body care is great, eating is great, now the last things we need to do daily to take care of ourselves is take care of our mind, read a book, listen to music, hydrate, sleep, hang out with people, because everything you do on the outside wont matter ...

Stay hydrated! When you've been to different places, you can taste a difference in something as simple as water. I rarely buy water bottles as i just drink tap but when i do,this will always be the best water in my opinion.
