What's your current body skin care routine?
I’m mostly using Kiehl’s Creme de Corps all over, but I also use Avene XeraCalm on my arms.

Kiehl’s Creme de Corps is my favorite that I use most often. But I also use a couple of drugstore brands: CeraVe and Gold Bond.
Nightime / Post shower routine: Paula’s Choice Body Lotion, with either the AHA or BHA Body Treatment every 3 days (to keep KP away).
Every couple of months I use the Retinol Body Treatment, and if I go through a very dry stage I might switch to the Body Butter.
Daytime / Whenever I get out in the sun: Paula’s Choice Body SPF before I leave home, and I have a mini random face SPF on me for re-application without needing to carry a big bottle.
Most days, I just apply Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Cream after my daily shower. Well, unless I plan on being out in the sun, in which case, I use Lubriderm Lotion SPF 15 for just going shopping or running errands. When I get to use the pool again, then I go with a waterproof SPF 30 spray all over any and all bare skin.
Neutrogena light oil with Cerave cream as occlusive. Also magnesium spray. And cortisone..:
As I have quite sensitive, mature aged skin it is important for me to regularly use a body cream – especially on my hands, arms and legs. Generally I mix it up with either a tub of CeraVe’s Moisturising cream or Cetaphil’s. Both of them are good value and do the trick. I have used Weleda’s body butter too and that is heavenly, but a lot more expensive. I go through the tubs quite quickly.
I just finished my jumbo jar of Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Cream so until I get out to purchase some more (I picked up a cold (not covid) on my 3rd day in Vegas, I’ve had the cold for over 2 weeks!), I’m using some cream from the Mirage Hotel in Vegas. In the summer I mix in Isle of Paradise tanning drops so I don’t look like a ghost.
