Skin Recovery Lotion goes to work fast to make skin look and feel calm and comfortable. The result? Skin that looks clearer and healthier with less sensitivity.

    Incredible lotion for oily/sensitive skin

    Before I found Renee Rouleau's Skin Recovery lotion, every other lotion I had tried broke my skin out, caused my skin to be too oily or would irritate it. I was hesitant to try this lotion since I have never had a good experience with lotion in the past but BOY am I glad I did. I have been using this lotion everyday for the past 3 years and absolutely love it! It goes on smooth, no strong fragrance, doesn't cause excess oil or any acne/irritation. It feels lightweight and not too heavy on my skin. Best part- I can wear it year round and still feel like it properly hydrates my skin. Would absolutely recommend!

    A need not a want

    Im 28 and have rosacea and break out prone skin. I’ve tried so many moisturizers and this is the only one that cooperates with my skin. It feels really light and hydrating. I use it once daily at night and always keep it in stock at home. If I do run out and end up having to use the stuff I have from Khiels I always breakout. Would definitely recommend.

    My skin totally changed

    I've been using this moisturizer in the morning and the rapid detox cleanser at night. My skin has responded incredibly well in just a week. My forehead is smooth, which has been a constant struggle for me for YEARS. I thought i judt had to accept it. These products are my holy grails. I'm really grateful I tried.

    Great lotion

    Love this a lot. Smooth, this absorbs and leaves skin moisturized. No residue, light but effective, no irritation.
