Body care routine: How to properly care for your skin from head to toe

Why body care is more than just showering

Many people pay attention to facial care—but the skin on the rest of the body needs just as much attention. Dryness, tightness, or rough patches are often the result of neglected body care.

With the right routine you can:

• Strengthen your skin barrier
• avoid dry areas
• promote your skin's natural glow

Here we show you how to optimally care for your body skin in just a few steps – without any effort.

Gentle cleansing: The basis of every body care

Many shower gels contain harsh ingredients that attack the skin's natural protective barrier. This leads to dry, irritated skin—especially if you shower daily.

Here’s how to do it better:

• Use pH-neutral, mild shower gels
• Look for ingredients like aloe vera, oat or almond oil
• Avoid sulfates, synthetic fragrances & microplastics

Tip: Our gentle shower gels cleanse effectively without drying out.

Peeling: For smooth, radiant skin

A regular body scrub removes dead skin cells, prevents ingrown hairs and leaves your skin feeling smooth.

Application tips :

1. Massage onto damp skin in circular movements
2. Then rinse thoroughly and apply cream
3. Apply 1–2 times per week

Our recommendation : Peelings with natural oils.

Moisturizing: The key to healthy skin

After showering, your skin needs moisture to keep it elastic, soft, and protected.

You should note this:

• Apply lotion or body oil immediately after showering
• Choose products with urea, shea butter or hyaluronic acid
• For particularly dry skin: nourishing body oil with jojoba or argan

Areas that need special care

Some parts of the body are more prone to dryness, friction or irritation:

Armpits (soothe after shaving)

Elbows & knees (exfoliate + moisturize regularly)

Feet (intensive care with balm or oil)

Back (e.g. treat with a spray serum)

Body care = self-care

Body care isn't just functional—it's your daily mini-ritual. A moment of peace that's good for you and your body.

1. Consciously take 5-10 minutes
2. Enjoy the texture and fragrance of your products
3. Breathe deeply – care begins with mindfulness
4. Your moment of well-being begins in the shower
