Fruity popsicles, beach trips and longer days, what’s there to not love about summer? Even though this sunny season is my all-time favourite, there is one thing that I can do without—the skin issues that come along with it. During winter, I get to use my luxurious rich body creams. However, if I use the same moisturisers in the summer, they melt right off, and it’s a nightmare to deal with that situation. Fortunately, gel-based body lotions have my back. So if you’re also looking for lightweight body lotions, here are some of my favourites:

1. The Body Shop British Rose Body Yogurt

This is hands down the best body lotion I have ever used! It’s lightweight and effortlessly gets absorbed into my skin. It thoroughly hydrates my skin but without leaving a greasy layer behind, which is perfect for the summer!

Even though this body lotion contains super hydrating ingredients like avocado oil and vitamin E, it doesn’t have a greasy formula. It’s lightweight and leaves your feeling thoroughly hydrated.
