The 24 Best Body Lotions and Creams That Tackle Dry Patches and Dull Skin This Season

As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work.

While dropping temperatures usually mean summer-bare skin is suddenly buried under layers of clothing, that doesn't mean it's safe from the elements. Even when not directly exposed to the chill, you can still lose moisture through your skin, and even more so when there's dryness in the air at the same time.

Luckily, Sephora has a bunch of bestselling lotions and creams to have you covered in that department already. These offer a big boost of hydration with soothing ingredients like shea butter, nut oils, honey, and more, so your body can stay as protected and moisturised as your face.

What are you waiting for? Don't leave dry skin out in the cold, and check out our popular picks ahead.
