“My skin gets drier during the transitional weather, so I plan on using this ultra-rich body cream well into the spring. Despite its thick texture it doesn’t leave my skin slick and greasy – just soft and glowy.”— Erin Lukas, deputy beauty editor, TZR
"Ouai's thick, fluffy body cream melts down when rubbed in for instant absorption, leaving behind just a hint of shine and gloss on my limbs. It's one of the best out there, and even better when layered with Ouai’s body wash in a matching scent." — Amanda Ross, beauty editor, TZR
“It's rare to find an exfoliating body lotion at a reasonable price point that doesn't feel clinical. It smells delicious and most importantly, does not leave me ashy.” — Samantha Scott, newsletter editor & strategist TZR
"My skin is constantly dry, even in the summertime, so I have to use heavier creams to keep it from flaking. I swear by all of Josie Maran's products and love this body butter infused with argan oil because it always leaves my skin moisturized and soft!" — Marina Liao, senior fashion news editor, TZR
"I need extra soothing lotions for post-shave skin during the warmer months, and this gentle cocktail of oat, rose, and lavender fits the bill perfectly, leaving my skin smooth, soft, and free of irritation." — Angela Melero, executive editor, TZR
"My skin always feels so soft and smooth after applying Nécessaire’s The Body Lotion. And because I’m prone to headaches from strong scents, I love that this formula is fragrance-free." - Kelsey Stewart, associate fashion editor, TZR
"Most of the year, my skin borders on dry, yearning for constant hydration and moisture-rich products. If this sounds familiar, I highly recommend this cream that not only satiates like a tall glass of water but leaves your skin with that glow-from-within radiance." — Kathy Lee, editor-in-chief, TZR
"My skin is on the drier side so I tend to use body butters, especially before bed and always after exfoliating. This is one of my favorites because it has both shea and jojoba butter and leaves my skin super feeling soft – even into the next morning." — Jessica Fields, beauty writer, TZR
"I have keratosis pilaris which makes my skin super dry and itch-prone, so I need a rich cream that really locks in moisture. This luxe vegan body butter smells heavenly and contains nourishing oils from dates, grape seeds, and shea butter." — Rebecca Iloulian, Director, Newsletter Revenue & Marketing, BDG
I rely on this Bliss body lotion for year-round lightweight hydration, and it has never let me down. I love the pump attachment, and the price tag is the icing on the cake.” — Maggie Haddad, sr. social media strategist, TZR
