General, ingredient-based — not your personalized match.
See how this fits your skin
Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testThe Ameliorate Clarifying Body Lotion (300ml) is a lightweight, intensely hydrating formula designed to smooth rough, dry skin while helping to reduce blemishes. Enriched with the brand's LaB6 Skin Clearing Complex, which includes lactic acid, white willow bark and marine extracts, it gently exfoliates and supports a clearer, more even skin tone over time. The addition of rosehip oil, aloe vera and vitamin E soothes, nourishes and protects the skin barrier, locking in moisture without feeling greasy. Its fast-absorbing texture and refreshing fragrance of green tea, waterlily and sandalwood leave skin feeling refreshed and smooth.
Clarifying Body Lotion is a cushioning lotion from Ameliorate. The formula is built mainly around hydration and soothing. The ingredient list runs to 41 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as moderately cushioned — emollient enough to feel like a cream, without the heaviest occlusives near the top. The oils in it point to a dewy, emollient finish rather than a matte one. Hydration is handled by Glycerin, Butylene Glycol and Urea, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: Very high. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Urea and Water.
Soothing: High. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Allantoin, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Butyrospermum Parkii Butter and Tocopherol.
Barrier support: Moderate. Lipids and repair signals that support skin barrier integrity, and here that comes from Butyrospermum Parkii Butter and Lecithin.
On richness alone it suits Balanced skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry, Combination (dry), Combination (oily) and Oily skin. Several ingredients carry irritation flags. If your skin is reactive, this is one to patch test carefully or approach slowly.
The formula contributes little or nothing on antioxidant protection, oil control and firmness signalling. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is no drying alcohol, paraben-free, silicone-free, microplastic-free, sulfate-free and dye-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging. It does contain fragrance and essential oils, worth knowing if your skin reacts to any of them.
It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes after serums. Seal in your serums with it; in the morning, sunscreen still goes on top.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
