• Martha Stewart loves the Mario Badescu Super Rich Olive Body Lotion for “silky and smooth skin,” according to her facialist.

• The 82-year-old icon calls the affordable body lotion her “longtime favorite.”

• The lotion is top-rated for its non-greasy, super-hydrating formula, and is available for only $22.

Whether she’s sharing a viral “thirst trap” selfie on Instagram or whipping up a new recipe in the kitchen, Martha Stewart always boasts glowing, healthy skin. That’s why I'm all ears whenever the 82-year-old celeb reveals one of her favorite beauty products. I'm extra excited by her latest pick, Mario Badescu’s Super Rich Olive Body Lotion—it’s only $22!

Stewart’s facialist, Carmela Barabas, recently revealed to InStyle that the affordable body lotion—which she says is great for “imparting moisture and leaving the skin feeling silky and smooth”—is “a longtime favorite of Martha Stewart.” Her pick is no surprise, either; Stewart has been a fan of Mario Badescu for years. In fact, she recently told Prevention that she loves the brand’s Vitamin C serum, saying, “I use a lot of Mario Badescu; I consider it very affordable for what they are.”

But what’s so special about the body lotion in particular? Besides the fact that it’s super affordable at only $22 a bottle, the Super Rich Olive Body Lotion from Mario Badescu is loved for its deeply hydrating formula that’s infused with antioxidant-rich olive oil, the formula’s hero ingredient that helps to restore skin’s moisture. Suitable for all skin types, it boasts a creamy, rich texture that promises to leave skin “soft and silky” without a greasy residue.

But don’t just take my (and Barabas’) word for it—plenty of reviewers swear by the top-rated lotion, too, raving that it absorbs quickly and easily, has a wonderful scent, and doesn’t leave skin feeling greasy or oily. “This is the best, by far, body lotion on the market,” writes one reviewer. “I have never had such soft skin, and it stays soft, including heals and elbows that tend to dry out.”

Other shoppers say that it’s great for their sensitive skin, including conditions like eczema. “I have extremely sensitive skin, extreme allergies, and I am always battling hives and have the scars and redness to show it on my very fair skin,” writes one reviewer, who calls the pick “the best body lotion ever, period.” Another writes, “The redness has evened out, there is no itching and my skin feels smooth. This lotion absorbs quickly and your skin looks and feels amazing, never oily or greasy.”

With such glowing stamps of approval from customers—and the queen of thirst trap selfies’ facialist—I'm definitely making sure to stock up on this top-rated, super-affordable body lotion ASAP.
