Seasonal Skincare: Choosing the Right Lotion for Winter, Summer, and Beyond
Your skin doesn’t behave the same way year-round—so why should your body lotion stay the same? As seasons shift, so do your skin’s needs. A thick, nourishing lotion that’s perfect for dry winter days might feel too heavy in the summer heat.
Here’s how to rotate your body lotion routine with the seasons—and keep your skin happy and hydrated all year long.
❄️ Winter: Deep Nourishment Is a Must
Cold air, wind, and indoor heating wreak havoc on your skin’s moisture barrier.
What your skin needs:
- Rich, emollient formulas
- Long-lasting hydration
- Soothing scents
Try this:
Honeysuckle Body Lotion or Lavender Patchouli Lotion to comfort and protect dry, sensitive skin.
🌸 Spring: Soothe and Balance
As temps warm up and allergens rise, your skin may feel inflamed or unpredictable.
What your skin needs:
- Gentle hydration
- Non-irritating, botanical-based ingredients
- Lightweight formula with floral or herbal scents
Best pick:
Lavender Body Lotion for calming hydration and balance.
☀️ Summer: Light and Fresh Wins
Heat and humidity can make skin feel sticky. But sun, salt, and chlorine still strip moisture.
What your skin needs:
- Lightweight, fast-absorbing lotion
- Natural ingredients that won’t clog pores
- Refreshing, energizing scents
Go for:
Lemongrass Body Lotion or Bay Rum Body Lotion for cool, post-sun hydration.
🍁 Fall: Transition and Repair
As cooler air returns, your skin needs help rebuilding its protective barrier.
What your skin needs:
- Midweight lotion that’s not too heavy
- Antioxidants and vitamin-rich oils
- Comforting scents to ease seasonal stress
Recommended:
Black Raspberry Vanilla Lotion for both nourishment and a cozy feel.
