Body lotion is a skin care product that is formulated to moisturize, hydrate, and protect the skin from drought. With these benefits, it is important for everyone to use body lotion regularly.

However, in the use of body lotion there are several things that must be considered, so that the benefits can be received by the skin optimally. To make good use of body lotion, it must start with the right bathing habits.

Doctor Sari Chairunnisa, Sp.DVE, FINSDV, Founder of LABORmen, said that the water used during the bath is not at high temperature. Using high temperature water while bathing can make the skin dryer, which can interfere with the function of body lotion.

"(To maximize the use of body lotion) we must first know how to shower properly. So, don't use water whose temperature is too high, because it will make the skin dryer," said Doctor Sari, in Senayan, Jakarta, on Thursday, October 30, 2025.

When applying body lotion after bathing, it is also recommended not to dry up completely after using a towel. Applying body lotion should be when the skin is still half wet, so that the water level is well maintained.

"In using a body lotion, don't really dry your skin because of a towel. So what is still a bit wet, it's a good time (wearing a body lotion), because the water level is still stored," he explained.

In addition, it should also be understood that the use of body lotion is not only twice a day. The use of body lotion is recommended twice a day, especially for those who have dry skin.

"For people whose skin is dry, more frequent use is needed," concluded Doctor Sari.
