10 of the Best Body Lotions for Dry and Sensitive Skin

Having been asked recently to bring back a bottle of Bioderma’s excellent Atoderm body lotion for dry skin from my trip to France – 500ml, no less (which I quickly ordered in the UK) I decided it was time for a post on the best body lotions for dry skin – made worse this year by the seemingly never ending winter.



What you’re looking for, from a body cream or lotion for very dry skin is not your average scented body lotion which you may love during the summer months, but something a bit heavier, preferably unscented or very lightly scented that offers hours of hydration.

I also like a body lotion that comes in a big tub or pump bottle, by a brand I know and trust, and that doesn’t cost the earth.   Difficult?  Not if you know what you’re looking for.

All these are brands that I have used over time and trust completely for offering high quality beauty products across the range.
