Body skincare is having a major moment—and for all the right reasons. While you’ve perfected your facial skincare routine with cleansers, serums, and moisturizers, your skin below the neck has been patiently waiting for that same level of intention and care.
Think about it: your skin is your body’s protective barrier, working around the clock to shield you from environmental stressors, regulate temperature, and maintain hydration. This incredible system doesn’t stop at your jawline—it covers every inch of you, deserving the same thoughtful approach you bring to your face.
Here are the five essential body skincare tips that will elevate your routine and give you the glowing skin you’ve been dreaming of.
Tip #1: Master the Art of Dry Brushing
Dry brushing is one of those simple practices that delivers remarkable benefits, yet most people have never tried it. This time-honored technique uses gentle pressure in short, sweeping motions, always moving toward your heart to work with your body’s natural lymphatic flow and is essential to body skincare.
Regular dry brushing enhances lymphatic drainage, helping your body eliminate toxins more efficiently. It improves circulation, bringing oxygen and nutrients to your skin cells for that coveted healthy glow. The gentle exfoliation removes dead skin cells, revealing fresh, smooth skin underneath, while the rhythmic motions create a meditative experience that reduces stress and boosts energy.
The beauty of dry brushing is its simplicity—just 3-5 minutes before your shower, working from your feet upward with light to medium pressure. Your skin should become pink but never irritated. It’s self-care that actually works.

Tip #2: Layer Products Like a Pro
The key to glowing body skin lies in how you layer your products. Just like your facial routine, the order and timing of application of your body skincare makes all the difference in achieving maximum results.
After dry brushing and showering, apply your body moisturizer while your skin is still slightly damp. This moisture helps active ingredients penetrate more effectively. Our Body Balm transforms into liquid upon contact, delivering powerful peptides that nourish, rehydrate, and firm your skin. Unlike traditional lotions that sit on the surface, it melts into your skin, supporting your body’s natural repair processes.
Follow with a dry oil mist like our Body Nectar to seal in all that hydration without any greasy residue. This lightweight finishing touch creates that healthy, natural glow that comes from truly nourished skin. The key is working quickly while your skin is receptive and applying in upward motions to support circulation.
Tip #3: Invest in Professional-Grade Ingredients
Your body deserves the same high-performance ingredients you use on your face. The difference between basic moisturizing and true skin improvement lies in the quality and potency of your ingredients.
Look for formulations with peptides like Palmitoyl Tripeptide-37 that stimulate collagen and firm skin, glycolic acid for gentle chemical exfoliation, and nourishing oils like squalane and jojoba that deeply repair skin barriers. Our Body Balm and Body Nectar are formulated with these powerful ingredients that work synergistically to enhance your skin’s appearance and health over time.
The Sorella Body Kit includes everything you need—our specially designed dry brush, Body Balm, and Body Nectar—for a complete professional-quality routine you can do at home. It’s your invitation to treat your entire body with the same level of care and sophistication you give your face.
Tip #4: Experience Professional Exfoliation
While home care creates the foundation, some experiences can only be achieved through professional expertise. Professional exfoliation goes far beyond what you can accomplish at home, targeting stubborn rough patches and preparing your skin for optimal hydration.
Our Body Buff combines pumice and glycolic acid in a dual-action formula that targets rough, dry skin with precision. This innovative showerless scrub leaves skin perfectly polished and ready for hydration—but it’s exclusively available through Sorella partners because some results require professional hands and expertise.
When you visit a Sorella partner for body treatments, you receive expert dry brushing technique, exclusive Body Buff exfoliation, and customized hydration protocols. The result is skin that’s noticeably smoother, firmer, and more luminous, plus the deep relaxation that comes from professional care. These treatments are perfect for seasonal transitions, before special events, or as monthly maintenance.
Tip #5: Consistency Creates Results
The final tip is the most important: consistency beats intensity every time. Your body skincare routine should feel intentional, not overwhelming. The key is establishing a sustainable practice with products that actually deliver results.
Start with dry brushing 2-3 times per week before showering. After your shower, apply Body Balm using upward motions, then finish with Body Nectar for all-day hydration. This simple routine takes just a few extra minutes but creates cumulative benefits over time.
Your skin becomes smoother, firmer, and more resilient with regular care. More importantly, you’re establishing a practice of caring for your entire body with the same attention you give your face. Every morning presents a choice: rush through your routine or embrace a few extra minutes that honor the body that carries you through your life.
