With summer around the corner we will all be showing off more skin in no time! It's important to pay attention to the skin on your body as well as your face--it can get very dry during this time of year between the additional sun and sweat. I like to use a combination of these moisturizers and oils to hydrate my skin from head to toe each day. Exfoliate your skin first and then apply them right out of the shower for best results. Read on for my Glow Girl favorite body creams and oil picks.
Frank Body's coconut body balm can be used to moisturize your body, seal the ends of dry hair, nourish cuticles and highlight legs and décolletage. The multi-tasking balm contains vitamin E and Arabica coffee seed oil which acts like a double shot for your skin. The high caffeine content helps to tone and firm plus, the gel-like formula smells out of this world. Whats not to love?!
Instytutum is an impressive new skin care brand from Switzerland and offers a variety of game-changing products for the face and body! Their luxurious body cream is perfect for improving skin elasticity and texture and blends a variety of active ingredients to support anti-aging. It deeply hydrates, leaving skin looking much brighter and firmer. I love the way it feels after applying it all over my body plus the fragrance is light and clean!
Kayo is a face-grade body care brand co-created by one of my fave health and fitness experts, Christine Bullock! Their mantra is protecting, enhancing and rejuvenating the other 95% of your skin, rather than just the 5% on your face.

The light fragrance of vanilla coconut, and green tea is made to remind you of the beach.
