Body lotion that’s not greasy that’s perfect for summer.

I usually use Cerave Ceramide body lotion, it’s great works but is utterly joyless.

My luxury is the L’Occitane almond body cream or their tubs of Shea butter. Too heavy for summer.

I need something light enough to not be greasy but nourishing enough to stop the dryness and if it could make my almost 50yr old skin feel like I’m 35 again I’ll take it!

Not palmers coco butter, I can’t stand the smell.

Neutrogena

I use Soap and Glory body butter. Goes on damp skin and just melts in, no greasy residue and has a lovely light scent.

Vaseline essential (yellow) or aloe (green)

The L’Occitane almond body cream in the glass jar is lighter than the one in the tin, if thats the one you’ve used.

I have the glass jar one, I keep it for winter because the refills are so expensive. I do love it though!

Vaseline green spray is lovely. So is the sanctuary spa one that you put on straight after a shower and don’t have to Ruby it in!

Aveeno skin relief

Is the Vaseline spray hydrating enough? I’m waiting for my frozen shoulder to thaw so a spray would be good.
