PROMISING REVIEW
“This is the best body lotion I have ever used. It's extremely hydrating, but it soaks in quickly so your sheets/pajamas don't get covered in it. The smell is super faint and nice. I have really dry sensitive skin on my legs and this is my new holy grail.”

WHAT TO KNOW
Formulated with Osea's signature Undaria Algae Extract, this body lotion delivers a potent dose of antioxidants and essential nutrients to replenish and rejuvenate your skin.

PROMISING REVIEW
“Best body lotion. This has got to be my favorite body lotion for my very dry skin. It even keeps my occasionally scaly heels in check. It applies smoothly, with no fragrance at all, and its moisturizing effects last all day. I like that it's actually not very thick—spreads and absorbs easier that way. A keeper.”

WHAT TO KNOW
Cetaphil has been around since 1947 when a pharmacist developed their original Cetaphil Cleansing Lotion. Today, the brand’s name is stronger than ever and they still develop products that are effective and healing for your body’s biggest organ. In fact, their Moisturizing Body Lotion is one of the best around for sensitive skin with its lightweight, fragrance-free formula.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS
This body lotion is truly top-rated, with 94% of the 20,500+ reviews four stars or higher. Plus, many users mention that they’ve been using this product for years. Here’s an example: “I have used Cetaphil forever! It has NEVER bothered my very sensitive skin, and it’s always effective as well!”

WHAT TO KNOW
The addition of super-hydrating ingredients (such as hyaluronic acid and ceramides) make this body lotion best for normal to dry skin. But it’s also fragrance-free, allergy tested, and accepted by the National Eczema Society, so those with sensitive skin will benefit from using this body lotion as well. 

ADDITIONAL DETAILS
A tried and true favorite that was developed with the help of dermatologists, CeraVe’s Moisturizing Lotion has well over 5,000 5-star reviews on Walmart's website alone.
