This new Biotherm Bodycorps body serum is $65 at the drugstore, but honestly, I don’t have to use my retinoid on my body anymore, and wonder if it’s a retinoid night, or no-retinoid night, so I’m here for it. I grew up in an era where I could read about acids being a treatment for bumps on your skin, but there was nothing available at the drugstore, but now there is.
Yes, Biotherm has a new body collection just in time for summer. Sure, you’ve seen a scrub and body oil before but they have a body serum too AND it has actives in it which is why I don’t need to use my retinoid on my body. Specifically, the Biotherm Biocorps Anti-Bump body serum has lactic acid in it which is a more hydrating acid. This makes it perfect for use on your body since your body is typically more dry and needs hydration. I’m using the scrub in the shower, of course, but it’s not so scratchy that the serum burns afterwards.
This is my weekday scrub because I use my harsher coffee and olive oil scrub on the weekends. The serum is a light gel texture that spreads easily, absorbs like water, and then works well with the Biotherm body lotion without any pilling. Both of them set to a non-greasy finish which means that you can get dressed right afterwards or follow with your sunscreen. And because there’s an exfoliating acid in the Biocorps serum, there’s also a recommendation on the bottle that you use sunscreen daily if you are using the serum, and honestly, use sunscreen period. I love the Lait Corporel body lotion but I’d like a huge bottle of sunscreen so I never run out.
