How to maintain body skin hydration: a daily ritual with natural body care by “to be”

Healthy, beautiful skin begins with hydration. Moisture is the foundation of skincare — the key to smoothness, elasticity, and a natural glow. Wind, heating, stress, or even a hot shower gradually dry out the skin, stripping it of comfort. While we usually focus on facial care, the body often remains overlooked. That’s why the Ukrainian natural cosmetics brand “to be” created effective products to help maintain optimal moisture levels every day — a body & hand lotion with centella asiatica and a lamellar body cream with grape-derived melatonin.

Why body skin needs daily hydration

The skin is our body’s protective barrier, constantly exposed to temperature changes, clothing friction, and hard water. When moisture levels drop, dryness, irritation, and even microcracks may appear. Proper hydration not only improves the skin’s appearance but also restores its natural balance.
The best time to moisturize is right after a shower, when pores are open and the product can easily penetrate into the deeper layers of the epidermis.

Body & hand lotion with centella asiatica — light yet deeply nourishing

This natural lotion combines centella asiatica extract, almond oil, and phytoceramide to deliver deep hydration, protection, and restoration. Its lamellar emulsion mimics the skin’s structure, allowing it to absorb easily without leaving a sticky film.
The active formula maintains hydration, soothes irritation, and speeds up the healing of microcracks — an ideal choice for daily care after a shower or shaving.

The gentle scent of lemongrass, citrus, and mint refreshes, while powdery notes leave a pleasant feeling of cleanliness. After application, the skin feels smooth, soft, and radiant — without excess shine.

Lamellar body cream with grape-derived melatonin — nourishment and recovery

For richer care, “to be” offers a body cream with grape melatonin — a product with a rich yet lightweight texture that actively nourishes and regenerates the skin.
Melatonin derived from grapes has powerful antioxidant properties: it fights premature aging, improves skin tone, and supports deep cellular renewal. Thanks to phytoceramides, the skin retains moisture longer, remains supple, and is better protected from environmental stressors.

This cream is perfect for an evening self-care ritual — it restores the skin after the day and helps it regenerate during sleep.

How to combine lotion and cream

The “to be” lotion and cream complement each other perfectly. Use the lotion in the morning for light hydration and all-day comfort, and the cream in the evening for deep nourishment and recovery.
After a shower, apply a small amount of lotion to damp skin using gentle massage movements. In the evening, when your skin needs more intensive care, choose the cream and pay extra attention to dry areas — elbows, knees, and shins.

Regular use helps maintain moisture balance, prevent flakiness, and restore comfort and softness.Naturalness and philosophy of “to be”

All “to be” products are made with natural ingredients, free from harsh components, silicones, and artificial fragrances. Each formula is thoughtfully developed to support the skin’s natural processes without disturbing its balance.
This is care where effectiveness, safety, and aesthetics coexist in harmony.

Hydration is more than a skincare step — it’s a necessity for healthy, radiant skin.
The “to be” lotion and cream form your daily ritual — combining care, fragrance, and the touch of nature. They work in symbiosis: one maintains, the other restores. Together, they bring your skin balance, smoothness, and comfort in every season.
