Now that British Summertime is officially here, we're starting to think about prepping our skin for warmer days ahead.
If like us, you've neglected your body skincare routine over the winter months, then now may be the time to snap up a new moisturiser to revitalise those dry limbs in time for bare leg weather.
We're clearly not alone in thinking this either, as Amazon's current number one bestseller in the Beauty category just so happens to be a moisturising body lotion by Aveeno that promises to hydrate dry skin for 24 hours.

The brand's Daily Moisturising Lotion – which will set you back just £4.93, reduced from an RRP of £7 – currently has hundreds of positive reviews on Amazon, with countless shoppers praising the budget buy.
"I've used some good moisturisers but compared to them this is a different class," wrote one customer. "Imagine being super thirsty and you have some water, then the relief your throat feels. This is the same feeling but for your skin. Fantastic stuff!"
Another fan added,"My skin is so much softer since using this product", while a third wrote: "Really nice moisturiser, which doesn't affect my sensitive skin but instead leaves it smooth, soft and hydrated."
The daily lotion is described as "fast absorbing" and the product description on Amazon says it's "clinically proven to significantly improve the condition of dry skin in just 2 weeks".
We don't know about you but, if it can help rescue our scaly winter skin, then we're definitely up for giving it a go!
9 of our favourite masks to use from head to toe
Origins Drink Up Intensive Overnight Hydrating Mask
The clue is in the name! Packed full of avocado and soothing Swiss Glacier water, your skin will drink up every last drop of this nourishing mask. There'll be no clock-watching with this, either: simply apply an even layer over skin and sleep, for more hydrated skin by morning.
Perfect if you're short on time, this 2-in-1 mask and exfoliator promises smoother, more hydrated limbs. Kaolin clay combined with rice grain sloughs away dead skin, while the blend of cupuaçu butter and coconut oil promises to hydrate. The delicious scent of pistachio and salted caramel will also linger on your skin for hours.
This mask will certainly forgive you for forgetting to moisturise your neck and décolletage! Glycerin will hydrate any crepey skin, while the powerhouse ingredient niacinamide will help reduce the appearance of any fine lines. Perfect for those summer months.
Put simply, this just works. The exfoliating acids (mandelic, glycolic and lactic) helps shift the most stubborn of hard skin on your feet. In 7-10 days, expect your feet to peel and shed: you'll unveil baby soft skin that you didn't know you had.
Luxuriously conditioning, this lip product doubles up as both a mask and balm. Apply a generous layer overnight for a more intense treatment, or dab a little on to the lips during the day for an instant shot of hydration. It's also great for priming lips pre-lipstick application, too.
Dry, brittle ends stand no chance when faced with this mask. Extra strength indeed, this sulphate-free formula is rich in coconut oil and vanilla bean extract to drench damaged hair. Plus, it's a high street bargain.
PIXI DetoxifEYE Eye Patches
With a whopping 30 patches included, this product like a little mask for puffy, tired under eyes. Cucumber extract will help calm redness, hyaluronic acid will hydrate, and caffeine works hard to reduce the appearance of dark circles. Pop them in the fridge for an instant, cooling treat.
Yes - a dry sheet mask! There'll be no dripping or mess here. Charlotte Tlibury claims this mask will help get skin 'red carpet ready' in a mere 15 minutes; peptides, vitamins and botanical extracts will rejuvenate the most tired of skins. With this mask, you can fold it gently back in it's packet and reuse it up to three times.
