body lotion to tackle dry skin?

body lotion isn't a quick fix.

On your skin lives an army of good bacteria: the microbiome. These bacteria thrive best in a slightly acidic environment. Yet many shower products are too alkaline and wash away not only dirt but also natural oils and beneficial bacteria. This upsets your skin’s pH balance, leaving it dry, itchy or sensitive. Often we then reach for body lotion to repair the damage — until it dries up and we start the cycle all over again the next day with the same wrong shower product.

The starting point? Choosing the right shower gel. RainPharma Skin Washes have the same slightly acidic pH as your skin. They cleanse gently while respecting the microbiome.

Only when your shower gel is right, it’s time for step two: body lotion. And the real function of body lotion? To protect your skin, not to hydrate it. Hydrating your skin from the outside isn’t possible — you might as well stand under the shower. But a good body lotion forms a protective layer, helping your skin retain moisture and preventing it from drying out too quickly.

At RainPharma, we have two body lotions. After Oil is a nourishing rinse-off oil you use in the shower — the ideal way to protect your skin quickly and easily. Does your skin need some extra care? Then combine After Oil with Prebiotic Skin Lotion. Its unique prebiotic formula helps restore balance to your microbiome, leaving your skin soft and healthy again.

And real hydration? That comes from within. By drinking enough water and supporting your body with the right proteins, vitamins and minerals.
