- Pros: Lightweight and non-sticky; deeply hydrates skin
- Cons: A little pricey
If you have dry skin but want something that helps address wrinkles and cellulite, we recommend this smoothing body treatment beloved by dermatologists. “This formula features 0.1% retinol, which is a gentle, lower concentration [than the typical 0.3% to 1%] yet shows clinical efficacy to firm skin over time. It has hydrating panthenol, grapeseed oil, shea butter, and evening primrose oil to support skin barrier function and create a smoother, healthier look to the skin,” says Geeta Yadav, MD, a board-certified dermatologist and founder of Facet Dermatology. It’s soothing, helps eliminate redness and bumps, and keeps skin hydrated for hours post-application.
“This body treatment is effective yet gentle, and so far, it hasn’t triggered any redness on my legs. “I’ve been using it for my thigh area where I’m starting to notice the development of uneven skin texture, and have definitely seen an improvement after using it for a few weeks. It makes my skin look and feel buttery smooth, and I’ve noticed a few less divots. While it hasn’t eradicated my spots of cellulite altogether, it certainly is helping in minimizing its appearance.”
Glamour contributor Regina Hickerson says:
“I love the consistency of this treatment! It doesn’t have a smell, which is great because it doesn’t interfere with my perfumes. Wherever I apply it, my skin feels so soft and hydrated. I’ve noticed the skin tightening effects after using this for a few weeks, and my legs are more firm. There’s no tingle which is a good sign for sensitive skin. It definitely works, but daily use and consistency is key for great results.”
