A Body Care Routine For Every Body
Should exfoliating be the first step in your body care routine?
Your body skincare routine starts in the shower. And hey, if I’m there, even better. A body exfoliator is a must-have for smooth skin, and the right ones will moisturise as well, like my famous Original Coffee Scrub. The best body scrubs do it all: get rid of dry, flaky patches, help heal breakouts, and smooth lumps and bumps — all while leaving your skin extra soft. Whether you choose to use a coffee scrub or a sugar scrub, remember to always exfoliate head to toe every two to three days. Plus, scrubbing makes for great “me time” moments.
The best body moisturisers.
The next step in your body care routine will get you glowing. After exfoliating, it’s important to give your skin some extra moisture. The best body oils and lotions are the ones made with natural ingredients that effectively hydrate and protect the skin barrier. While it’s easy to focus your skincare efforts on just your face, it’s important not to neglect the rest of your body. A natural body moisturiser can help combat dry skin, leaving you smooth and supple.

Look for ones that can firm up the skin, smooth away cellulite, improve acne, and banish dry skin. Yes, unicorn, all-in-one skincare products like this do exist. So if you are looking for a body moisturizer for dry skin or cellulite, there is a product just for you. It’s a skin firming lotion that also keeps your skin supple.
How can a body moisturiser help firm and smooth your skin?
Caffeine doesn’t just wake you up in the morning — it can also firm up and smooth out your skin. One of the best skin firming lotions out there is my Perky Sculpting Body Hydrator, made with acai, shea butter, and you guessed it: coffee. A thick and creamy lotion like this one will do wonders for loose skin, fine lines, cellulite, and stretch marks. My body hydrator is an especially great option for women who are expecting. Changes to your skin are inevitable (and something to celebrate!) when carrying a baby, but the best pregnancy moisturisers will significantly help minimize the appearance of stretch marks and skin discoloration.
With just a few slathers of your body cream of choice, you’ll be glowing in no time.
And finally, what are the best body acne treatment products?
Breakouts aren’t exactly a woman’s best friend, #letsbefrank. And when they pop up all over your body, you might not be sure how to treat them. Here’s a hint: you have to go back to the beginning. Exfoliation is key to getting rid of backne, buttne, and all other body acne. An acne body scrub will help eliminate excess oils and clean your pores, while sloughing away the dead skin cells that could be contributing to your breakouts. I recommend my Charcoal Body Scrub & Mask. It gently scrubs away dead skin while drawing out impurities from your skin.
Remember babe: your skincare routine is never complete without a natural body moisturiser and exfoliator. You’re only given one body, babe. Be sure to treat it right.
