Let’s be real—our skin goes through a lot. Between harsh winter winds, sun exposure and that never-ending battle with dry office air (even if your office is like ours and encompasses part of your condo’s breakfast bar), keeping skin soft and hydrated can feel like a full-time job. And slathering on tons of lotion multiple times a day just to keep the flakes at bay is just not our thing. So we’ve been rethinking our shower routine and have added Keri ‘s Moisturizing Shower & Bath Oil into the mix.
This skincare essential is super hydrating and loaded with nourishing ingredients. Lanolin oil deeply moisturizes our skin, locking in hydration to soothe even our driest body parts, while healing rough, flaky areas like our elbows and heels. It also softens and restores the irritated patches on our hands, forming a protective barrier against the hot forced air pumping through our home and the icy cold conditions outside. Lauric acid, a fatty acid found in coconut oil, works as an emulsifier blending the entire formula together to create a smooth and luxurious texture. It also helps cleanse our body’s skin by allowing the water in our bath and shower to lift away dirt and oil more effectively, leaving skin feeling fresh and balanced.
It smells great too. Unlike overpowering florals or synthetic fragrances, this shower and bath oil has a light, delicate scent that feels fresh yet comforting, kind of like wrapping yourself in a soft, cozy blanket. So you know we’re indulging daily. We simply massage a few drops onto our skin while we’re in the shower in the morning or we or add a capful to our bath before we go to bed at night. Trust us when we say our skin is feeling very pampered.
Keri Moisturizing Shower & Bath Oil, $10.99 for 450 ml, available at Shoppers Drug Mart.
