The 5 Best Body Moisturizers for Humid Weather

When it comes to the weather, you never know what you’re going to get during the transition from summer to fall. There will be some days that resemble a cool, crisp fall morning and other days where it is a whopping 80 degrees and the humidity is sky-high. Of all the skin-care steps that can feel unbearable in humid weather, moisturizing your body from head to toe can easily rank at the top. That extra layer of cream just doesn’t feel all that nourishing when paired with sweat, stickiness and that weighed-down feeling humidity can create. But before you skip out on this much-needed skin-care step, we’ve rounded up our picks for the five best body moisturizers to use in humid weather. Feel free to thank us later.

The Best Body Moisturizers for Humid Weather

Vichy Ideal Body Serum-Milk

The most important thing to look for in a humid-weather body moisturizer? A lightweight formula, and this serum-milk from Vichy fits the bill. The body lotion is formulated with hyaluronic acid (the hydration powerhouse we can’t get enough of), micro-exfoliating LHA and ten essential oils, including jojoba, sunflower, rose hip and apricot kernel. It offers the freshness of a cooling gel, for those days with soaring temps, and provides the comfort of a body lotion in a fast-absorbing formula that won’t feel sticky or greasy on skin. Apply after showering to help lock in moisture and go — no need to wait around before getting dressed.

Not only will this body lotion provide a non-sticky layer of hydration on those humid days, but it also helps to improve the skin’s texture and tone. Infused with Moroccan argan oil and argan leaf extract, this lightweight formula gives your skin a healthy dose of antioxidants and essential fatty acids.
