Body Lotion FAQ

Is it okay to use body lotion daily?

Using body lotion daily is the best way to keep your skin soft, smooth and hydrated. Bath & Body Works body lotions are enriched with nourishing ingredients like Shea Butter, Coconut Oil and Vitamin E. You get the perfect balance of hydration and care.

Use body lotion daily after you get out of the shower to lock in moisture. Plus, with our signature fragrances like Japanese Cherry Blossom, Warm Vanilla Sugar and A Thousand Wishes, applying body lotion becomes more than just a necessity, it becomes a sensory experience. For the best results, apply body lotion while your skin is still slightly damp after a shower. This helps seal in moisture for long-lasting hydration and keeps your skin radiant all day long.

How do I choose body lotion for dry skin?

Dry skin needs extra care and hydration. At Bath & Body Works, our body lotions are crafted to not only moisturize but also leave your skin feeling pampered and fragrant. Here’s what to look for when selecting a lotion for dry skin:

Nourishing Ingredients: Opt for lotions enriched with hydrating ingredients like Shea Butter, Coconut Oil, and Hyaluronic Acid.

Lightweight Yet Long-Lasting Formula: Our body lotions are designed to absorb quickly without feeling greasy, offering lightweight hydration that lasts. Perfect for dry skin that craves comfort without the heaviness.

Infused with Iconic Scents: Who says hydration can’t be indulgent? Choose from our signature fragrances like Japanese Cherry Blossom, Champagne Toast, Gingham or Warm Vanilla Sugar for a moisturizing experience that delights your senses.

Free of Harsh Additives: Look for lotions free from parabens, sulfates, or dyes. Our gentle formula, free from all harsh additives, ensures your skin gets the care it deserves.

Can I use body lotion as sunscreen?

Body lotions are not a substitute for sunscreen. They are perfect to keep your skin soft, smooth and hydrated. We recommend pairing your favourite body lotion with sunscreen. First, apply a generous amount of body lotion and then layer on sunscreen. This two-step routine ensures your skin stays both protected and pampered all day long.

Bath & Body Works body lotions are designed to moisturize and nourish your skin with ingredients like Shea Butter, Aloe Vera and Vitamin E. Choose from our signature fragrances like Japanese Cherry Blossom, Champagne Toast, Gingham or Warm Vanilla Sugar or seasonal picks like Dahlia, Lavender and Iris or Winter Candy Apple.

How do I find the best body lotion?

You need to understand your skin type and choose a body lotion that complements your skin and scent. Our body lotions are designed to hydrate, nourish and leave your skin feeling fragrant like a beach or warm hug, depending on your preferences. Bath & Body Works body lotions are enriched with Shea Butter, Vitamin E and Coconut Oil to keep your skin soft and supple.

Pick a scent that you feel is your go-to, from timeless classics like Japanese Cherry Blossom to fresh fragrances like Gingham or At the Beach. Our lotions are free of parabens, sulfates and artificial dyes, making them a great choice for clean, luxurious hydration.

Is body lotion better than body cream?

Body lotions are lightweight and non-greasy. They absorb quickly and leave your skin feeling soft and refreshed without that heavy feeling. Plus, our Bath & Body Works body lotions are infused with shea butter and vitamin E for an extra touch of nourishment.

When your skin is craving deep hydration or feels extra dry, body cream is the ultimate rescue. Our body creams are also loaded with ultra-nourishing shea butter and aloe, giving your skin the care it deserves. For lightweight hydration during the day, reach for a body lotion. For extra moisture and pampering, especially at night, a body cream will work wonders.

What ingredient to look for in body lotion?

It’s important to focus on ingredients that nourish, protect and pamper your skin. Shea butter is one such superstar ingredient. It works wonders on dry or flaky skin, leaving it soft, smooth, and irresistibly touchable. Another essential ingredient to look for is Vitamin E. It not only enhances your skin’s natural glow but also ensures it stays healthy and radiant over time. Similarly, coconut oil stands out for its ability to lock in moisture and give your skin a healthy, dewy finish. It adds a refreshing, tropical vibe to your skincare routine and provides long-lasting hydration.

At Bath & Body Works, our body lotions are free from parabens and artificial dyes, making them suitable for all skin types. With a wide range of luxurious scents to choose from, you can enjoy a body lotion that not only nourishes but also keeps you smelling amazing all day.
