About this deal
Want baby-soft skin? Go with Summer Skin from Summer Fridays—a vanilla aesthetic non-negotiable. This ultra-indulgent body lotion contains cocoa and shea butters plus ceramides to deliver all-day moisture and, of course, a lovely coconut-vanilla scent. If you’re looking for a two-in-one moisturizer that doubles as an SPF, this one could be a great option for you. Supergoop's Play Everyday Lotion is a hard-working SPF that slathers on nicely and is something you will actually want to wear daily, considering it doesn't leave a white cast or greasy finish.

This is a great option if you’re looking to elevate your everyday moisturizing routine without splurging a ton. Between the aesthetic-looking bottle and sweet-smelling lotion, it’s luxurious but still relatively affordable.

Cherished for its scrumptious scents, Byredo's Gypsy Water leaves you moisturized and smelling like its famous fragrance—a blend of juniper, lemon, bergamot, and pepper with a hint of pine needle and vanilla. In addition to the luxuriously creamy formula and earthy smell, the minimalist-chic bottle only adds to the appeal. The only thing we don’t love is that it’s pretty expensive per ounce; we wish it came in a larger size.If you're on the year-round sunscreen bandwagon—meaning you slather on SPF rain or shine, no matter the temperature—why not kill two birds with one stone and slather on a body lotion with SPF like Supergoop’s Play?

We test to see which body lotions will actually keep your skin hydrated by rounding up a wide range of moisturizers (21 in our last test) and narrowing down the field based on initial moisturization capabilities. In the Lab, we measure hydration changes on skin with the Corneometer device (which measures skin's hydration) before and after lotion application.
Sensitive skin types will appreciate Aveeno's soothing, fragrance-free formula. The brand generally emphasizes naturally sourced ingredients; this formulation is no exception. It contains oat extract (which is known to soothe the skin and restore the moisture barrier), dimethicone (an ingredient that protects the skin and seals in moisture), and glycerin (an ingredient that draws moisture into the skin).Sobhan M, et al.
