Build a scent-matched grooming routine using Dr. Squatch's Cool Fresh Aloe Lotion and Sierra Storm Body Wash. Step-by-step guidance for layering scents and keeping skin hydrated.

Quick answer

Layer Cool Fresh Aloe Lotion over Sierra Storm Body Wash for a clean, natural scent that lasts. Apply the body wash first, then lock in moisture with the lotion.

Why match scents?

Using a body wash and lotion with complementary scents avoids clashing fragrances and creates a more polished impression. The Sierra Storm Body Wash brings an earthy, woodsy aroma, while the Cool Fresh Aloe Lotion adds a clean, cooling finish that doesn't overpower.

When to skip the lotion

If your skin is already oily or you live in a humid climate, you might prefer just the body wash. The lotion is best for normal to dry skin types that need extra hydration after showering.

How to layer your scent-matched routine

  1. Shower with Sierra Storm Body Wash: Apply a quarter-sized amount to a loofah or washcloth. Lather over your entire body, focusing on areas that need a deep clean. Rinse thoroughly. Don't rush the rinse—residue can dull the lotion's scent later.
  2. Pat skin dry (leave slightly damp): After your shower, gently pat your skin with a towel. Leave it slightly damp so the lotion absorbs better and the scent layers more evenly. Avoid rubbing dry; it removes natural moisture and makes the lotion less effective.
  3. Apply Cool Fresh Aloe Lotion: Pump a small amount of lotion into your palms and rub together. Smooth over arms, legs, chest, and face (if desired). Focus on drier areas like elbows and knees. A little goes a long way—start with one pump and add more only if needed.
  4. Let it set before dressing: Wait 2–3 minutes for the lotion to fully absorb before putting on clothes. This prevents transfer and helps the scent last longer. Dressing too soon can rub off the lotion and reduce the layering effect.
