The aerie Botanicals line covers everything you need for a spa time-out at home: healing hand cream, body butter, body lotion, creamy body wash, body scrub and a fragrance mist.
If there was a fancy word for a lotion connoisseur, I would be that girl. I love to hydrate my skin as often as possible and slab my favorite lotion on every time I get out of the shower. Not only does the creamy body scrub do an awesome job of banishing dry skin and leaving it silky and smooth, but the body lotion is the perfect way to top it off and makes your legs shiny and sleek before you slip into your cute sundress. Each and every product will leave you super soft and smooth and has the power to hydrate even an Arizona girl’s skin all day long without leaving you feeling greasy — and that’s really saying something! Choose from Coconut + Vanilla Bean, Fresh Citrus + Papaya, Apple Blossom + Cucumber and Violet Leaf + Lychee scents to soften, nourish, rejuvenate and protect your skin. I tried the Violet Leaf + Lychee scent, which has a nice balance of floral and fresh aromas.
