I'm Obsessed With Bodycare—18 Lotions, Oils, and Serums I'll Use This Winter

For the longest time, I was only concerned with caring for the skin on my face. I would hoard vitamin C serums, moisturizers, and face masks, while completely ignoring the skin from my neck down. With time, though, I've realized my mistake—mostly because I noticed signs of sun damage on my arms and legs and pesky fine lines on my neck and chest.

That was a few years ago. These days, I've mended my ways, and I've created a dedicated bodycare routine. Actually, I'm kind of obsessed with it. I have a complete collection of lotions, oils, and serums that I use year-round, but especially in the winter when my skin tends to get dry, tight, and flaky. (I don't care if my skin is covered by thick sweaters, jackets, or jeans—I won't settle for anything less than smooth, happy, and hydrated skin.) So without further ado, keep scrolling to see my 18 favorite bodycare products to use all winter long.

Mutha Body Butter

This body butter is almost $100. That might sound wild, especially when you can pick up a body lotion for under $10 at the drugstore, but here's the thing: It's by far the most moisturizing body product I've ever used. I apply it at night, after showering, and my skin basically soaks it up. Come morning, my skin is soft and smooth, and it has a healthy-looking glow.

I make a particular point to use this body butter after shaving my legs. Since it's so moisturizing, I find it soothes my skin and calms any post-shave bumps or irritation that seem to pop up in the winter.Just keep in mind that this is a body butter, meaning it's thicker and slightly greasier than a standard body lotion. If that's not your thing, and you prefer lightweight formulas, you might want to skip this for something else. I, however, love it.

Contour Serum

Yep, I'm including yet another Mutha product. This luxe body serum is formulated with ingredients meant to tighten and firm the skin. I'm talking about ingredients like caffeine, niacinamide, ceramides, and a bevy of fruit extracts and oils. You can apply it alone or layer the brand's body butter or oil on top for extra moisture.
