Confessions of a beauty editor: Even when I do have the extra ready time after a morning shower, I often skip out on body lotions and creams. A pretty bad skincare mistake on my part, I know. But the utterly uncomfortable feeling of slathering rich, heavy cream on my skin, especially during the extremely humid summer heat, has always been a skippable step for me. Instead, I’d only spot-apply on my legs and forearms.
But recently, I came across a top-rated formula that has changed my summer beauty routine and my opinion on body cream: Sol De Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream (pronounced "boom boom," in case you were wondering).

Unlike the tested-once samples of body lotions, butters and creams dusting on my beauty shelves, this warm and spicy-scented cream instantly melts into the skin thanks to its ultra-lightweight whipped consistency. Along with being quick-absorbing, it is also specially formulated to visibly tighten the appearance of skin with its Brazilian-inspired cocktail of skin-loving ingredients like caffeine-rich Guaraná, Cupuaçu butter, açaí oil, and coconut oil.
With just a small dollop of cream, it smooths the complexion and brings a soft shimmer for that coveted Brazilian Bum Bum sun-kissed skin effect (as its name insists), making it the perfect skincare prep for bikini season.
