As much as I love the cozy coatswarm sweaters, and fashionable boots that winter brings, I really loathe the dry skin that comes with it. No matter how much body lotion and moisturizer I apply throughout the day, my skin always feels cracked and dry. It even got to a point where I thought I would just spend the colder months with rough, dehydrated skin and eventually get the moisture back once spring rolled around. But luckily, I was introduced to Nativa Spa last year, and I no longer have to endure that terrible fate this season. 

Nativa Spa is a Brazilian body care brand with a wide range of products that combat concerns like dry, sagging, or irritated skin. And no matter your area of focus, all of Nativa Spa’s products are super nourishing. While I haven’t tried every product from each line, the Quinoa Firming Body Lotion is the one that saved the day and my skin from the rough winter elements. It’s made with the brand’s signature quinoa oil that delivers concentrated nutrients, antioxidants, and omegas to the skin for more visibly firmer and nourished skin.

The texture of the lotion is incredibly soft and relatively thick, which is an absolute must for me when combating winter skin, but it doesn’t feel sticky or heavy on. You know that feeling when you put on pants right after putting on lotion? It’s almost like your skin is stuck to the material. Well, Nativa Spa’s Quinoa lotion couldn’t be further from that. It gets absorbed quickly, giving your skin the hydration it needs and a healthy glow. Plus, it smells incredible! Unlike other moisturizers or heavily scented creams, this one has subtle notes of peony and vanilla that remind me of a warm and comforting hug every time I put it on. 

But if you don’t want to take my word for it, no worries. The beauty line is supermodel-approved by Brazilian supermodel and former Victoria’s Secret angel Laís Ribeiro. Recently, the model teamed up to be the new brand ambassador to highlight its core values of sustainability, cruelty-free, and being 100% vegan. She is said to use the products in her everyday routine — which makes total sense considering how nourishing each one is. 

Riberio and I aren’t the only ones who love this lotion. It has over 6,000 reviews from shoppers all over the world. One shopper described it as “extremely moisturizing” and said their skin felt like “pure silk after the first application.” Another who claims it “actually works” shared that they’d been using firming gel and lotions together for years and “saw a difference with Quinoa lotion within days!”
