Make Your Own DIY Body Lotion

Keeping your skin moisturized is the key to keeping you looking young and beautiful. Whether you struggle with oily or dry skin, your skin care routine is important to follow every day.

For those who suffer from dry skin on their bodies and face, a trusted beauty spa could be your go-to for a dry skin facial. You may even have a favorite skin care product or specific skin cleansers that you swear by! The right lotion moisturizes your face and body while staying lightweight and comfortable.

However, keeping up with your regular skin care routine can be expensive and time-consuming. Stress from spending money and taking the time to treat yourself will even lead to more skin problems in the long run. Take the weight off your back (and your skin!) with our easy DIY body lotion recipe.
