Body lotion is essential for keeping your skin moisturized and nourished. However, sometimes the sticky feeling afterwards makes us lazy and as a result, we don’t use it regularly! Relax Sereni-Trees, we have some tips and recommendations so you can still use body lotion with “non sticky” results. Follow these tips!
The Importance of Body Lotion in Skincare Routine
Of course, using lotion diligently has a thousand benefits for our skin. That’s why we recommend using it twice a day after showering so that the product can work optimally. Regular use of body lotion can soften and soothe inflamed skin, flare ups or irritation. It can also reduce wrinkles, especially in areas that are often exposed to pollution and UV rays such as the chest.
Especially important for those of us who are often on the move, body lotion protects and strengthens the skin barrier. Remember Sereni-Trees, our skin is the front line of defense against microbial invasion that can be lost in the cleansing process. How it works is that the nourishing ingredients in body lotion restore the skin’s natural defenses and maintain the balance and health of the skin microbiome.
In fact, many body lotion products contain specific ingredients to treat specific problems such as dryness, loss of elasticity, cellulite, acne, eczema, and keratosis pilaris. So, it’s not just about moisturizing! We can solve various skin problems with body lotion products. No wonder this skincare is always popular!
Why does the skin feel sticky after use?
Body lotion products are great at nourishing the skin, but how come they get sticky after use? It definitely makes us uncomfortable. Especially if we’re going to do a lot of activities afterward. No wonder many people don’t use it regularly.
There could be approximately 5 causes, for example:
- Excess oil content in the product
The oil content in body lotions can provide the moisture we crave, but remember, too much of anything is not good! If the product has a high oil content, it is likely to leave a sticky feeling afterward. That’s why, pay attention to the ingredients label and adjust to your skin type before using!
- Heavy chemical content
Some body lotions contain heavy chemicals such as petrolatum or lanolin. Such ingredients are usually more difficult to absorb into the skin, which can leave a sticky residue on the surface of the skin. In addition, chemicals that are too harsh can also increase the risk of negative side effects.
- Applying too much product
There is no need to use excessive amounts of body lotion. This may lead to a thick layer that cannot be absorbed properly. Therefore, condition with your skin area, type and concerns. There are usually instructions on each product for proper usage.
- Not waiting for the lotion to fully penetrate
After applying the product, try not to move immediately! It’s important to wait for the lotion to fully absorb before putting on clothes. Otherwise, the lotion may mix with sweat or dirt. The result will be sticky!
- Skin condition is too dry
For those with dry skin, it usually takes longer for the body lotion to absorb. During this process, your skin may feel sticky because the lotion hasn’t fully penetrated.
Wow, this is what causes sticky skin after applying lotion! Which ones have you done? Trust me, if you avoid these things and follow the right tips, you’ll be addicted to using body lotion regularly. Your skin will also stay non-sticky, isn’t that interesting?
How to get a non sticky effect after use
Serenitree would like to give you some advice so that you can keep using body lotion regularly. Besides, we also want to make the process fun for you! After all, there’s nothing better than doing skincare with a happy heart, right? Auto good mood!
First is the right time of use. Why do we recommend after a shower? It’s not just to lock in moisture! Our pores after a shower are still open and clean. We have to utilize this condition for faster maximum absorption.
Next, we have to choose the right body lotion product. Different skin types need different treatments. Not to mention individual skin conditions, such as acne or blackheads. This is important for the level of effectiveness as well as our comfort. For example, if normal skin uses a highly moisturizing lotion product like body butter, it will feel heavy and uncomfortable. Conversely, very dry skin is also not suitable for using lotions that are too light!
Then, it also helps if we accompany the use with a massaging/twisting motion. The benefits include accelerated product absorption and improved blood circulation. Your skin will be healthier. But don’t forget to take just enough product!
Last but not least, try to let the lotion soak in before wearing clothes or doing activities. If you live in a hot area, you can also use a fan to aerate your skin. Easy, right?
Serenitree Natural Lotion as a Non Sticky Moist Skin Solution!
Confused about which non-sticky lotion to choose? Serenitree has the safe solution. With 2 variants of soothing and brightening, Serenitree body lotion has natural ingredients that can moisturize without feeling sticky! Here are some examples:
- Shea Butter
It comes from the seeds of the shea tree and contains vitamins A and E. The texture is rich and creamy, making it suitable for dry skin. Benefits include repairing skin damage, improving elasticity, and protecting skin cells from free radicals!
- Vegetable Glycerin
Vegetable glycerin is a humectant, which means it works by drawing water from the environment or from the deeper layers of the skin to the outer layers of the skin. The result? Skin stays hydrated and moisturized!
- Sweet Almond Oil
This oil is rich in vitamin E and essential fatty acids. We can experience many positive benefits such as prevention of premature aging and smooth, moisturized skin.
For the record, Serenitree body lotion is oil-based, so it doesn’t absorb instantly. However, the effect is many times that of a water-based lotion. Again, it depends on your needs, preferences, and skin condition. What are you waiting for? Let’s invest in your skin with the right care from an early age!
