Body spray
Body spray is a practical product for quick skin care, easy application and use during the day. Depending on its purpose, body sprays can be intended for hydration, sun protection, skin refreshing or soothing the feeling of itching in dry and sensitive skin.
Within the Body care products category, body sprays are chosen according to skin needs: SPF protection during sun exposure, SOS care for itch sensation, quick emollient care or practical application on larger skin areas.
Body spray is especially useful when you want a product that applies quickly and spreads easily. However, with SPF sprays it is important to apply a sufficient amount and renew protection according to the manufacturer’s instructions, especially after swimming, sweating or towel drying.

How to use body spray properly?
Body spray should be used according to the manufacturer’s instructions. It is most often applied to clean and dry skin from an appropriate distance, then gently spread with the hands if needed. With sprays for dry skin care, the product can be applied to areas that are dry, tight or prone to itching.
With SPF spray, it is important to apply a sufficient amount before sun exposure and regularly renew protection, especially after swimming, sweating or towel drying. The spray should not be sprayed directly into the face, eyes or inhaled; for the face it is best to first apply it to the palm and then carefully spread it, if the manufacturer allows this.
Body spray, dry skin and itching
Dry body skin may be accompanied by tightness, roughness, flaking and itching. Body sprays intended for dry and sensitive skin can be practical when quick application is needed, especially on areas that are harder to reach or when the skin feels uncomfortable during the day.
For long-term dry skin care, it is important to combine spray with mild shower products, regular hydration with body cream, body milk or balm and avoiding very hot water. If itching is severe, persistent or accompanied by redness, sores or oozing, medical advice is needed.
Body spray and skin care
Body sprays can be a useful addition to a skin care routine, but they do not replace basic moisturizing care when the skin is very dry or damaged. With skin prone to dryness, the best effect is achieved when the spray is combined with regular body care and protection from external factors.

Pharmacist’s advice
Choose body spray according to purpose: SPF spray for sun protection, and SOS or emollient spray for dry skin prone to itching. With SPF products, apply a sufficient amount and renew protection during the day. With dry and atopic-prone skin, do not rely only on spray; use appropriate moisturizing care regularly. If severe itching, redness, pain, sores, oozing, swelling, skin cracking or worsening changes appear, seek advice from a dermatologist, doctor or pharmacist.
