A lifetime of avoiding perfumed lotions ended for one eczema-prone tester when Sol de Janeiro’s Body Badalada delivered calm skin and a lingering pistachio-vanilla aroma overnight.
First Use Results
After a hot shower that usually triggers redness and itching, the tester applied one pump per arm. The lightweight, serum-like texture absorbed instantly and left a cooling sensation that subdued inflammation by morning.
- Seven-hyaluronic-acid blend draws moisture into deep skin layers
- Brazilian nut oil supplies vitamin E to reinforce the skin barrier
- Sugarcane extract locks surface hydration for 24-hour comfort
Fragrance Without Fallout
Despite sharing the Cheirosa 62 profile-pistachio, almond, vanilla, sandalwood-the scent did not provoke itching. Fragrance traces remained 12+ hours after bedtime application, a first for someone whose eczema historically flares with perfumed products.
| Skin Concern | Typical Reaction | Result With Badalada |
|---|---|---|
| Post-shower redness | Moderate-severe | None observed |
| Itch within 6 h | Common | Zero reported |
| Reapplication | 2-3× daily | None needed |
Real-World Feedback
Other users echo the tester’s experience. One shopper with extremely sensitive skin wrote:
> “It does not irritate at all like some other lotions do.”
A customer living with autoimmune rheumatoid arthritis stated:
> “First lotion I actually see and feel a difference with.”
Another reviewer credits the formula for anti-aging effects, noting wrinkles on neck and chest “were gone” after consistent use.
Minor Bottleneck
Once the bottle neared empty-roughly four months in-pumping required unscrewing the top and tapping remnants out. The workaround takes seconds and salvages the last applications.
Key Takeaways
- Sol de Janeiro Body Badalada delivers rapid eczema relief without sacrificing fragrance
- A single pump covers an entire arm; hydration lasts 24 h on a once-daily routine
- Sensitive-skin users praise the silky, non-irritating finish
- Bottle design needs a final hand-tap to empty completely
For people who thought scented lotions were off-limits, this formula offers aroma and calm in one step-no prescription required.
