Introducing the NEW Bio-Oil Body Lotion

I absolutely adore the Bio-Oil brand and have blogged about the oil many, many times before HERE, HERE, HERE and HERE.

I’m so excited to introduce you to the brand’s newest innovation, a ground-breaking ultralight moisturising formulation with more than double the oil content than other moisturisers. I’ve been using it for the past 3 weeks and just love it!

Body lotions are popular because they are light and easily absorbed, allowing one to get dressed immediately after application. However, due to their lightness and high-water content, they are typically less nourishing than creams and body butters.

With new Bio-Oil Body Lotion, the research and development team set out to formulate a body lotion lighter than ANY body lotion and MORE effective than creams and body butters. A tall order indeed!

How Do you Utilise the Power of Oil in a Light Lotion?

This was achieved by launching the first-ever “shake before use” body moisturiser.

“The difference between our Body Lotion and other body lotions is that we have, on average, double the amount of oil. In normal body lotions, you will find around 20% oil, and in our Body Lotion there is 42% oil. We kept the potency very high, yet we achieved this ultralight feel, so we’ve got the best of both worlds.” – Bio-Oil research and development director David Letschert

The Bio-Oil Body Lotion’s combination of breakthrough lightness and high-oil content is achieved through an emulsion, with a thin fluid-like consistency, in which the water and oil are very lightly bound together. By gently shaking the product before use, the oil disperses back into the lotion and activates its powerful formulation.

This unscented body lotion is thinner, lighter and faster absorbing than any other lotion on the market. How amazing? Also, because there is no added fragrance, even the most sensitive skin types can use it. And, as a bonus, because there is no fragrance, the formula won’t fight with your scent of the day!

Ingredients include:

Shea oil that forms a barrier on the skin, helping it retain moisture.

Urea to smooth & soften.

Hyaluronic Acid to boost moisture levels & plump skin

Lactic Acid gently exfoliates while softening & hydrating the skin

Vitamin E an antioxidant that protects the skin

Vitamin F is a fatty acid that maintains & repairs skin’s barrier

Vitamin A promotes skin renewal & increases elasticity

Jojoba Seed repairs the skin, has anti-inflammatory benefits & increases elasticity

Calendula extract promotes cell regeneration

This is THE ideal daily body moisturiser that delivers sheer, long-lasting moisturisation and leaves skin feeling silky soft and smooth. The formula is non-greasy, spreads easily, and absorbs instantly.

The Bio-Oil body lotion formula is Vegan, not tested on animals, contains no parabens or preservatives and is packaged in recyclable materials.

Cost: 175ml (RSP R144.99 – BUY) and 250ml (RSP R189.99 – BUY)
