I've recommended this to more people than I can count. It's the one I go back to every single time I try something else and get disappointed. Ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide in a big tub that costs less than a fancy coffee. It doesn't fee...

This is my "going out" body lotion — sounds ridiculous but it's true. It leaves the most beautiful subtle sheen on the skin without being glittery or obvious. Any event where I'm wearing something sleeveless, this goes on my arms and shoulders first....

The original drugstore body lotion that everyone's mum had on the bathroom shelf and it's still here because it still works. I keep the large pump bottle in the bathroom for everyday use and never run out gracefully. It's the lotion I put on my kids ...

There's something deeply nostalgic about the scent of Jergens cherry and almond, warm and familiar. I've been using this since I was a teenager and my skin was still soft the morning after. It's lightweight enough to use morning and night without bui...

FENTY BEAUTY SKIN & BODYCARE

We’ve been told for years that "melanin is our SPF," but we still need protection! This is my favorite daily moisturizer because it’s a 2-in-1. It’s light enough for the oily parts of my face but hydrating enough for the dry spots. Most importantly, ...

This is a "Holy Grail" for combination skin. It has a unique, viscous texture (hence the name "Fat Water") that you pat directly onto your face with your hands—no cotton pads needed. The Niacinamide is incredible for fading those stubborn dark spots ...

This is thick, decadent, and smells like a tropical vacation. For us, especially on our legs and elbows, "ashy" skin is the enemy. This cream is packed with tropical oils that give the skin a visible sheen that lasts all day. I love that it comes in ...

I have soft skin, so these work perfect. Use the body Polish, or body scrub, either or, 3 or 4 times a week to exfoliate your skin (stage 1 of shower routine). I looove the oatmeal body Polish the most as it smells sooooo good. I think it's my favour...

The pampering with shea butter is my personal fave. But, to be honest, all flavours are really, really gooood! Deeply nourishing too.

Prebiotic oat is the hero ingredient here and if you have sensitive or reactive skin, this is the lotion you need. I used this for months when my skin was reacting to everything and it was the one thing that didn't cause a flare. No fragrance, no dra...

If your skin is reactive, this is the baseline product your dermatologist will point you to. Zero fragrance, zero fuss, zero irritants just pure skin-barrier-repairing moisture. I keep a tub of this for days when my skin feels "angry" reactive, red...

Eucerin Original Healing Cream is thick and serious. It goes on rich and takes a minute to absorb, but once it does the skin feels genuinely healed rather than just moisturised. I use it on cracked heels, dry elbows, and any patch that's been irritat...
