Body milk

Body milk is intended for daily hydration, softening and care of body skin after showering, bathing or whenever the skin needs extra softness and a pleasant feeling of comfort. Due to its lighter texture compared with rich creams and balms, body milk spreads easily and is suitable for regular use.

Within the Body care products category, body milks are chosen according to skin type, scent, texture and level of hydration the skin needs. They can be an excellent choice for normal, dry or mildly tight skin that needs daily care.

Body milk is best applied to clean and dry skin, most often after showering. For skin that is very dry, rough or prone to flaking, regular care and choosing a product suitable for the skin condition are recommended.

How to use body milk properly?

Body milk is applied to clean and dry skin, preferably immediately after showering, when the skin is ready for care. The product should be applied in a sufficient amount and gently massaged until absorbed.

Special attention should be paid to areas that often become dry: lower legs, elbows, knees, arms, shoulders and sides of the body. With dry skin, body milk can be used daily and, if needed, more than once a day, according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Body milk and dry skin

Dry body skin may occur due to frequent showering, aggressive soaps, cold weather, heating, air conditioning, sun exposure or a natural tendency of the skin to lose moisture. When the skin becomes tight, rough or prone to flaking, regular hydration with body milk may help restore a feeling of softness and comfort.

Pharmacist’s advice

Apply body milk regularly, especially after showering, when the skin needs additional hydration. With dry skin, choose products intended for hydration and avoid aggressive soaps, very hot water and rough towel rubbing. If severe itching, redness, pain, sores, oozing, skin cracking, swelling or changes that worsen and recur appear, seek advice from a dermatologist, doctor or pharmacist.
