How I Use Medical-Grade Skincare... on My Body

Most of us have an elaborate routine for their face. Serums, masks, actives, retinoids, sunscreen... you name it. And yet the body, which covers far more surface area and goes through just as much, gets a very quick application of any lotion, generally the one that's on offer in the supermarket... if it's lucky!
Let’s change that.

Your body deserves better. And I’m not talking about greasy moisturisers that sit on the surface and make you feel like an oil slick (nothing worse on a hot day than feeling like you're trapping in heat in your body cream). I’m talking about medical-grade body creams with clinically active ingredients. These are products that treat the skin, not just coat it. Think of them as your full-body skincare routine in one step. With no complicated layering or faffing. Just great results.
Here are the ones I love, use, and recommend again and again.

Senté Dermal Repair Body Cream
This is the one I recommend if your skin feels inflamed, irritated, or just not like itself. It contains patented Heparan Sulfate Analog technology, which works deep within the skin to calm inflammation, support the skin barrier, and increase hydration. It’s especially brilliant for redness, sensitivity, or anyone with post-treatment skin that needs a little extra TLC. I've been using this for a good few months now and my skin feels completely different just from using it once.

Nimue Nourishing Body Balm
Don’t let the word "balm" fool you — this is light, fast absorbing and completely non-greasy. But it’s packed with antioxidants, barrier-restoring actives and skin-conditioning ingredients that make it feel like a luxury facial product, for your body. This is a brand new product from Nimue and I'm so excited to share it with you. We all love our Nimue products for the face so I'm sure you'll love this body product too!

Revision Bodifirm
Think of this as a personal trainer in a tube. Bodifirm is all about improving skin firmness, elasticity and tone — particularly in areas that tend to get crepey or saggy over time. Arms, thighs, stomach, chest — you name it. It contains peptides, antioxidants and hydration boosters, and works incredibly well alongside treatments or post-weight loss. It's got some great science behind it and the before and after results speak for themselves.

Forlle’d Hyalogy P-Effect Body Cream
A serum-lotion hybrid that feels like silk and performs like science. With low molecular weight hyaluronic acid and Japanese pearl protein, it hydrates deeper than most creams even try to reach. It also helps improve skin structure, calm irritation and restore skin health at a cellular level. If you’ve ever wished your face cream came in a giant bottle for your body... this is it.
I think we all know that one application won’t change everything. But applying a high-quality body cream daily absolutely will. The skin on your body loses collagen. It gets dry, pigmented, irritated and inflamed. It’s exposed to the sun, the wind, tight clothes, central heating, fake tan, and everything else we throw at it. It needs support. And these body creams are more than just moisture giving, they are treatments in their own right.

If you can, let's stop treating the body like an afterthought. Look at it like you're taking your skincare to your toes.
Thank you so much for reading,
