Quick answer: A natural body care routine is three steps. Wash with Botanica Face & Body Wash, polish rough areas with Cinnamon Silk Body Polishing Lotion two to three times a week, and moisturise daily with Blue Pea Face & Body Lotion or a Body Juice. All are 100 ml and suit every skin type.
Body skin gets less attention than the face, but it deals with the same sun, sweat, friction and dryness. This natural body care routine keeps things to three steps, uses products that continue straight on from your face care, and tells you exactly how often to do each one.

What is the correct body care routine?
| Step | Product | How often | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Wash | Botanica Face & Body Wash | Daily, morning and evening | ₹450 |
| 2. Polish | Cinnamon Silk Body Polishing Lotion | 2 to 3 times a week | ₹499 |
| 3. Moisturise | Blue Pea Face & Body Lotion or a Body Juice | Daily | ₹569 / from ₹445 |
Every product is 100 ml. Two of them work on face and body, so the natural body care routine carries on from your face care.
Step 1: Wash
Botanica Face & Body Wash contains neem extract, turmeric extract, soapnut extract, oat amino extract and a probiotic, with lavender and licorice. It cleanses gently without drying, helps maintain the skin’s natural pH balance, and leaves skin fresh, soft and healthy-looking.
It suits all skin types, including sensitive skin, and is made for daily use on face and body, morning and evening.
Keep showers short and warm rather than hot, and pat skin dry gently with a towel. The American Academy of Dermatology recommends both habits for skin that tends to feel dry.
Step 2: Polish
Cinnamon Silk Body Polishing Lotion is a leave-on body lotion with cinnamon oil, sandalwood oil, vitamin E and glycerin. It is formulated for normal to oily skin, and patch testing is recommended for sensitive skin.
How to use it: apply a generous amount to clean, dry skin and massage in circular motions until fully absorbed. Focus on rough areas such as elbows, knees and heels.
Use it two to three times a week, and apply lightly on the days in between. For a deeper guide, read body polishing at home.

What is body polishing?
Body polishing is massaging a polishing lotion into the skin in circular motions to work on rough areas. With FUGENO it is a single step: apply Cinnamon Silk Body Polishing Lotion to clean, dry skin, massage in circular motions until absorbed, and concentrate on elbows, knees and heels.
Do it two to three times a week, with a lighter application on other days. It is step two of a natural body care routine.
How often should you exfoliate?
Use the polishing lotion two to three times a week, applying it lightly on non-massage days. That frequency is what the product is designed for.
Should you use body lotion every day?
Yes. Using a body lotion every day is the step that keeps skin soft between polishing sessions. Blue Pea Face & Body Lotion is made for daily use on face and body, and the Body Juices are used daily for best results. Apply to clean, dry skin and massage in circular motions until absorbed.

How can I get smoother-looking body skin naturally?
- Wash daily with Botanica Face & Body Wash, which cleanses without drying.
- Massage Cinnamon Silk Body Polishing Lotion into rough areas two to three times a week.
- Moisturise every day with Blue Pea Face & Body Lotion or a Body Juice.
- Give the routine at least four weeks.
Adjusting body care for Indian weather
- Summer and humid months: wash morning and evening to clear sweat. A lighter layer of lotion is usually enough.
- Monsoon: keep skin clean and fully dry, especially in skin folds, before applying lotion.
- Winter: skin on the shins, elbows and knees tends to feel rougher. Moisturise generously every day and keep up the polishing on rough areas.
Common body care mistakes
- Only caring for the face. Two FUGENO products already cover face and body, so extending the routine takes seconds.
- Polishing every day at full strength. Stick to two to three full massages a week, with light application in between.
- Skipping the patch test. Cinnamon Silk contains cinnamon oil. Test it first, especially if your skin is sensitive.
- Expecting overnight results. Give a natural body care routine at least four weeks.
