Burt's Bees Calming Day Face Lotion for Sensitive Skin, 1.8 oz — Aloe & Rice Milk, Lightweight Hydration

Burt's Bees Calming Day Face Lotion is a lightweight, 98.9% natural-origin moisturizer formulated with aloe, rice milk, and cotton extract to soothe and hydrate sensitive skin daily.

This gentle face lotion combines plant-derived ingredients chosen to calm and replenish skin without relying on common irritants. The 1.8 oz pump bottle fits easily into daytime routines and travel kits, delivering everyday hydration that layers well under sunscreen or makeup. Formulated without parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, or SLS and certified by Leaping Bunny, this lotion aims to nurture delicate skin using mostly natural components.

How does this lotion soothe sensitive skin?

The formula centers on aloe and rice milk, both known for softening and comforting feeling when applied. Cotton extract contributes to rebuilding the skin's outer layer, helping reduce the sensitivity triggered by external factors like harsh cleansers.

• Aloe: cools and adds instant hydration for a calm sensation.
• Rice milk: offers gentle moisturizing without heavy residue.
• Cotton extract: helps support the skin barrier to minimize reactivity.
• Low-irritant formulation: avoids parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, and SLS.

Will this feel greasy or interfere with makeup?

The lotion is designed to absorb quickly and leave a lightweight finish that won’t sit heavy on the skin. It layers well beneath sunscreen and foundation, making it practical for morning routines.

• Fast-absorbing texture for a matte to natural finish.
• Non-greasy formulation suitable under cosmetics.
• Small 1.8 oz bottle ideal for on-the-go application.
• Use after cleansing and before sunscreen or makeup.

Is this product safe and cruelty-free?

The lotion is Leaping Bunny certified, indicating Burt's Bees does not test this formula on animals. It deliberately excludes several common synthetic ingredients to reduce potential irritants, but always patch-test new products if you have highly reactive skin.

• Leaping Bunny certification — cruelty-free assurance.
• 98.9% ingredients from natural origin reported.
• Free of parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, and SLS.
• Dermatologist-recommended brand reputation for natural skincare.

How should I use it in my daily skincare routine?

Apply a small amount to clean, dry skin on face and neck each morning. The lotion is made to be a daytime hydrator that pairs with cleansers, toners, and masks from the same line for a simplified sensitive-skin regimen.

• Smooth over face and neck after cleansing, morning and as needed.
• Allow to absorb before applying sunscreen or makeup.
• Combine with gentle cleansers and toners for best results.
• Carry the compact bottle for travel-friendly hydration top-ups.

Who is this for? This Burt's Bees Calming Day Face Lotion is aimed at anyone with sensitive or reactive skin seeking a lighter, naturally oriented daytime moisturizer. It's a good fit for users who prefer products with recognizable plant-based ingredients, cruelty-free certification, and a formula that layers easily under other daytime products. If you need a heavy occlusive night cream, this daytime lotion may feel light; otherwise, it serves well as a daily, low-irritant hydrator for delicate skin types.
