The skin below your face deserves love too. Especially when you're joining the we-are-40 club. If you have been neglecting the skin on your body, this is the final time to start taking care of your body to delay as much as possible the day when you notice that there are sagging and wrinkles, and your body is not as young-looking as it used to be.
The body care options, however, have always seemed basic. But happily body care is finally stepping into the spotlight in a big way, where body lotions are packed with skincare formulas equally potent as the face creams and serums.
Not long ago I received body lotion, that made me pleasantly surprised how skin-changing it is. Dr SAM´s - one of my latest obsessions. There´s lot to love from this brands facial skincare, but today, as you already know, it´s all about their body lotion + with my thoughts and reflections. Are you craving for at-home skin-so-smooth body experience for your best summer-skin ever? Continue to read on...

Dr SAM´s FLAWLESS BODY THERAPY AHA BODY LOTION*
After a whole host of impressively successful facial skincare products, Dr Sam Bunting has moved on to the body category, and it couldn´t be more pleasing.

It´s a luxurious blend with actives designed to improves skin-tone, firmness, smooth dry skin and hydrate.

My thoughts
Incredible skin smoother. Body lotion I´m truly obsessed with. Truth to be told, I didn't expect it to be so amazing, probably because of such an affordable price (37€ - 10% when used the discount code I share more below). I've had much more expensive body moisturizers that don't give half as much skin improvement as this gorgeous formula. After just one application, my whole body skin becomes polished-like beautifully smooth and so well hydrated. Even on my legs, where I´ve skin usually drier and rougher; with this formula I´m having silky-soft legs with an improved, naturally luminous appearance. When used once daily for about week, my combo type skin becomes firmer and healthier looking; and so dewy and plump to the touch. The texture is lovely and buttery, not greasy... a bit thick but not too much. Non-scented, so there´s no way it could tire my olfactory senses, or make any confusion with the fragrance I choose to spray on me during the day.
As this body lotion contains an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA), it may increase skin sensitivity to the sun. So it´s important during the day wear protective clothing, or/and on not covered body parts, apply a good broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30.
Body care I recommend for everyone. Really! It is a formula capable to please all skin types and all genders. Even for oily skin types, as its non-comedogenic and will not clog the pores + Niacinamide will keep them stay clear. Especially great option for those looking to target the signs of premature aging, extreme dryness and even for those with Keratosis Pilaris (so called chicken skin). This is your lotion for smoothest summer-skin. The big plus - its affordable, cruelty-free and vegan.
*Cons: doesn't sink into the skin right away, needs to be massaged at least for few seconds
HOW TO USE:
After showering, apply to damp skin to lock in the moisture for longer. Apply twice daily for maximum impact, concentrating on areas of key concern.
Available on Dr Sam´s: 37€/ 200ml
