Body Cream FAQ

Is it okay to use body cream every day?

Using body cream daily is one of the best ways to keep your skin hydrated, soft, and healthy. Bath & Body Works body creams are infused with nourishing ingredients like Shea Butter and Vitamin E, and with our iconic fragrances like Japanese Cherry Blossom, Warm Vanilla Sugar, and Gingham, you’ll not only feel moisturized but smell amazing too!

For the best results, apply your body cream right after a shower when your skin is still slightly damp. This helps seal in the moisture and enhances the cream’s hydrating power. Make it a part of your self-care routine and enjoy soft, radiant skin every single day.

What are Bath and Body Works' most iconic fragrance scents?

For soft, hydrated, and glowing skin, it’s best to use body cream daily. Apply it right after your shower to lock in moisture while your skin is still damp. If your skin feels dry or exposed to harsh weather, you can reapply body cream as needed to restore moisture and keep your skin protected. Keep a travel-size body cream in your bag to touch up dry spots anytime, whether you're at work, on vacation, or just enjoying a day out.

When should you apply body cream?

The best time to apply body cream is right after your shower. When your skin is slightly damp, it absorbs moisture more effectively, locking in hydration for a soft and silky feel. Massage a generous amount of Bath & Body Works body cream onto your skin, focusing on dry areas like elbows, knees, and heels, for deep nourishment and all-day hydration.

For an extra pampering experience, use it before bed as part of your nighttime routine. Luxurious scents like Japanese Cherry Blossom or Warm Vanilla Sugar will leave your skin feeling nourished and smelling divine, helping you drift off to a peaceful sleep.

Which is better body cream or body lotion?

For best results, apply generously to dry areas right after a warm shower, when your skin is still damp. Whether it's the harsh winter or just extra dry patches, Bath & Body Works body creams ensure your skin gets the care it deserves.
