I hate to confess it, however I’ve by no means been the largest fan of making use of physique lotion. Primary, I’m straight up lazy about it, and quantity two, I hate the greasy residue it leaves on my pores and skin for hours after the very fact. However as I proceed on in my late 20s, it’s been my mission to prioritize physique care extra usually to keep away from untimely getting older, and that’s the place my newest obsession comes into the combination. 

As a magnificence editor, I’ve tried my fair proportion of excellent and dangerous physique lotions over time and have thus developed a standards for what I search for in a single: a delicate scent that lasts all day, a consistency that isn’t too thick, components that supply advantages past simply hydration and lastly, no-fuss packaging. Look, I don’t assume that’s an excessive amount of to ask for—particularly since NativaSPA’s Quinoa Firming Physique Lotion ticks all these containers.

I’ve coated the model’s merchandise a number of occasions over the previous 12 months resulting from their distinctive, shopper-approved formulations, however I lastly determined to place its best-seller to the check myself. A bit background on the product first: the dermatologist-tested system claims to extend firmness and elasticity whereas boosting collagen manufacturing inside 4 weeks of use (sure, that quick). It’s additionally wealthy in Omegas 3, 6 and 9 because of the wholesome dose of pure quinoa oil, an ingredient that’s made up of quite a few vitamins that battle getting older. 

The Quinoa Firming Physique Lotion has racked up 1000’s of critiques from consumers, a lot of whom have seen swift modifications throughout all areas of their physique. One individual wrote that their “under-arm pores and skin is noticeably firmer” and that on the age of 74, “there isn’t any extra crepiness to their pores and skin.” One other reviewer wrote that it “immediately transports you to a spa” and “melts into the pores and skin leaving it plump and moisturized.”

Now, for my private ideas on the physique lotion. I instantly seen the scent proper off the bat; the model describes it as “heat, floral, with the right quantity of sweetness, adopted by notes of peony and a contact of comforting vanilla,” and I’d say it brings the right quantity of aroma with out being overbearing. The truth is, it makes the applying expertise way more satisfying.

The lotion immediately sank into my dry pores and skin, and whilst you can initially really feel it lingering on the floor, it doesn’t take lengthy to set in (principally, in the event you hate that greasy lotion really feel, you’ll like this.) Whereas I haven’t used the physique lotion for a full month to see these promised long-term modifications but, I do just like the fast outcomes; ie. softer, healthier-looking pores and skin. As an added bonus for the general consumer expertise, I really like that it is available in a pump bottle versus a jar you’d should dip your fingers into.

With spring on the horizon and all of us quickly to be shedding these winter layers, now’s the time to add an age-defying physique lotion into your routine.
