Bedtime Body Care
9
items I've been loving tailoring my body care routines to the time of day. These are some of my bedtime favorites, so of course they feature plenty of lavender.

I think creating a custom body wash and matching lotion through Function of Beauty was the first time I realized that the body care routine I had had for my whole life was doing me a disservice. My custom wash had me feeling softer than I ever had and actually helped moisturize my skin. Of course I made sure it was heavily lavender scented. Layering with my matching custom lotion had the scent lingering on me throughout the next day.
Custom Body Wash
Not my favorite when it comes to exfoliation and lather, but the sugar scrub is light enough to use everyday. Leaves my skin feeling soft, moisturized, smooth, and fresh. Pairs so nicely with the matching body balm. The scent is calming and earthy, more woody and green than lavender.
VOESH Exfoliating Body Wash - Hinoki & Lavanda
Lavender scented and package free. I always find bar soaps tend to last a little longer than body washes for me, probable because I like to use a washcloth.
Sleepy | Lavender Soap
Moisturizers
Helps lock in moisture, especially if paired with a Lush bath bomb. I'll never get tired of the Sleepy Collection.
Sleepy | Calming Body Comfort Lotion For Better Sleep
Thick and creamy, yet somehow also light and quick absorbing. It seems like it won't moisturize well, but it does. I've been using it with the matching body wash and my skin has been soft and hydrated all day. I do like layering it with an additional moisturizer, like an oil or serum, since I do start looking just a little dry on my extra dry spots by the end of the day. The Hinoki & Lavanda scent is green and woody, grounding and spa like. It's a very light scent, so those that don't like heavily scented products will enjoy.
VOESH Body Balm - Hinoki & Lavanda
Bath & Shower Accoutrements
A nice large size so that you get multiple uses. Skin softening.
Sleepy | Bubble Bar
I love the plastic free packaging. I get even more uses out of this than the Sleepy Bubble Bar. Again, skin softening with a soothing scent.
Big Bottle of Calm
I don't know what it is about Dove's exfoliating body polishes, probably the coconut milk, that makes them feel so luxurious. It smooths and adds a touch of hydration.
Dove Exfoliating Body Polish Crushed Lavender & Coconut Milk 10.5 oz
This body scrub does double duty with chemical and physical exfoliants leaving skin incredibly soft and smooth. I love that it uses finely-ground pumice, no sugar or salt that melts before it can even exfoliate. The lactic and glycolic acids can make skin more sensitive though, which is why this should be used at night, and if you're very sensitive, sunscreen should be used in the morning. It's also just nice to lie in bed and rub your smooth legs and feet together.
