Bio-Oil Body Lotion has been formulated to hydrate and replenish mild everyday dry skin, helping to maintain the skin’s natural moisture balance by supporting optimum lipid bilayer and NMF function. It supplements the skin’s natural oils which can be stripped away by factors such as extreme weather, water with high chemical content, frequent bathing and the drying effects of central heating and air conditioning. It helps lock in moisture and reduces the rate at which water vapour is naturally lost through the skin’s surface Bio-Oil Body Lotion should be massaged in a circular motion on the body until fully absorbed. It is recommended that Bio-Oil Body Lotion be applied twice daily, morning and evening 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 layer disperses back into the lotion. Layer formation can take anywhere from three days to three weeks and is dependent on factors such as temperature, how vigorously and how frequently the bottle has been shaken. The mere act of using the product daily, turning the bottle upside down when dispensing, is more than sufficient to ensure that this oil layer does not form Bio-Oil Body Lotion pioneers a new level of lightness and efficacy in body moisturization. The product is significantly thinner than currently available body lotions, yet has a high-oil loading of 42%. This unique combination of being ultralight yet high in oil is made possible by Bio-Oil’s pioneering ‘shake before use’ formulation.
