A good body care routine does not have to be complicated. Even so, it is easy to pay too much for attractive packaging, exaggerated claims or products that are not suited to your skin type. Whether you are looking for body lotion for dry skin, a body cleanser for everyday use, an electric body trimmer or a body care gift set, always pay particular attention to the specifications and intended use.
Words such as “repairing”, “brightening” or “acne clear” may sound convincing, but they do not automatically tell you what a product will do for your skin. According to the brand’s own information, for example, a lotion may help the skin retain moisture, although results vary from person to person.
Therefore, check:
With an acne body cleanser containing AHA, BHA or PHA, it is sensible to introduce it gradually. These acids can make the skin more sensitive to sunlight. Only use the product as stated on the packaging and stop using it if irritation occurs.
A body scrub can remove dead skin cells and temporarily leave the skin feeling smoother. That does not mean you need to scrub firmly every day. Too much friction can actually feel uncomfortable, particularly on sensitive or dry skin.
Pay attention to the grain, the recommended application and the areas where you use the product. Your elbows and knees may react differently from the skin on your chest or neck. Do not use a scrub on damaged or irritated skin.
A device with numerous settings or accessories is not automatically practical. With a body trimmer, battery life, water resistance, cleaning and length settings are more important than a lengthy product description. With smart scales, you should check which measurements are actually displayed and how the app synchronises.
Think about your routine in advance: do you want to trim quickly in the shower, care for dry skin every day or mainly take a product with you to the gym?
When it comes to caring for dry skin, ingredients such as glycerine, oils and occlusive substances are often relevant. Vaseline Intensive Care Body Lotion Essential Healing, for example, lists glycerine, petrolatum and oat extract among its ingredients. According to the product information, this body lotion is intended for dry skin and contains fragrance allergens. Always check the packaging if you are sensitive to fragrances.
If you want to care for sensitive skin, look for a short ingredients list and the absence of fragrance or alcohol. MUJI Sensitive Skin Body Lotion is described as fragrance-free, colourant-free and alcohol-free. Even with a product described as hypoallergenic, an individual reaction remains possible. If in doubt, test a small amount first.
The size of a product partly determines how long it will last. A 400 ml bottle of body lotion is practical for everyday use, while a 90 ml body mist is easier to carry in a bag. A 500-gram scrub may seem good value, but only if you enjoy the fragrance and texture and use the product regularly.
Also check the shelf life, the period-after-opening symbol and the instructions on the packaging. This information may vary from one pack to another.
IP ratings are useful for body grooming products. IPX7 means, according to the product information for a device, that it can be temporarily immersed in water under certain conditions. This is not the same as unlimited use in every situation. Follow the instructions and check whether the accessories are also washable.
The Xiaomi Grooming Kit Pro lists an IPX7 rating, USB-C charging, a battery life of up to 90 minutes according to the product description, and length settings from 0.5 to 20 mm. The Braun Body BS1000 is a compact mini trimmer with an IP67 rating, designed for wet and dry use. Before buying, check which attachments and batteries are included.

A complete routine can include several categories:
We have put together a complete, up-to-date list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and the applicable European safety regulations.
Start with a gentle body wash or body cleanser, pat the skin dry carefully and then apply body lotion or body oil. Add a body scrub occasionally at most if your skin tolerates it well. A body mist is optional and is mainly intended to provide fragrance.
This depends on the size, the amount used each time and how frequently you use the product. After opening, take note of the symbol on the packaging and follow the shelf-life information. Has the fragrance, colour or texture changed? Stop using the product and check the packaging.
A basic routine usually consists of a cleanser and a moisturising product. Additional costs may come from scrubs, body mist, grooming devices or care sets. Therefore, do not compare only the price per pack. Also consider the size, frequency of use and included accessories.
