Have you ever really put any thought into when to moisturise your body? Me neither. But I have recently discovered, with more than a decade in the beauty industry behind me, that I’ve been doing it all wrong.
When I recently told my colleagues I only moisturise my body before bed, they were genuinely appalled. I mentioned it in passing, assuming that was a perfectly normal thing to do, but their reaction was as if I’d told them I butter my toast before I put it in the toaster. I looked around the office to galvanise support for my near-nightly ritual of basting my skin like a turkey with my best body creams and best body oils before getting into bed, but I couldn’t get a single person on side.
