At Native, we believe lotion products should be straightforward and feel absolutely amazing on your skin. If you're curious about the body lotion ingredients you can actually recognize – and understand what they do – here are some of the key players we use in our moisturizing lotion, and why they're there!
Psst...BTW: As always, ingredient lists can vary by product and may be updated over time, so always check the label on your specific lotion to be sure!
Key Ingredients You'll Find in Native's Hand and Body Lotion:
| Ingredient | Function | Benefit |
| Glycerin | Plant-derived Humectant |
Attracts and retains moisture in the skin's outer layers, helping skin feel hydrated and comfortable, especially after washing.
|
| Niaciniminde | Vitamin B3 for Skin Barrier Improvement |
Helps improve the skin barrier, making skin feel more resilient and comfortable while contributing to smoother-looking skin over time.
|
| Shea Butter | Emollient for Hydration |
Softens and smooths skin by increasing lubrication and reducing rough texture, while providing a rich, nourishing feel.
|
| Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride | Skin Conditioner | Supports a smooth, comfortable skin feel and improves spreadability, allowing the lotion to glide on easily. |
| Coconut Alkanes | Skin conditioner | Creates a silky, lightweight application experience, helps the lotion absorb comfortably, and leaves skin feeling soft. |
How These Ingredients Work Together in a Moisturizing Lotion
Our key players:
- Humectants (like glycerin) help your skin hold onto water.
- Emollients/conditioners (like shea butter, caprylic/capric triglyceride, and coconut alkanes) help soften and smooth your skin's surface.
- Barrier-supporting ingredients (like niacinamide) help your skin feel more comfortable and resilient over time.
This "team effort" is part of why our lotion offers gentle 48HR moisturization!
