The £6 Boots dry skin cream Molly-Mae swears by in winter for cracked skin
WITH an estimated fortune of around £6 million, Molly-Mae Haag has enough money to buy all the luxury beauty products she wants.
But it turns out the mum-of-one, 25, swears by a great value body cream (currently on sale in Boots) for dry and cracked winter skin.
Molly-Mae appeared on Lookfantastic’s YouTube channel to share her winter skin routine and revealed she loves Aveeno products.
Aveeno lotions and potions are formulated to balance your skin.
According to the brand’s bosses, they “go beyond the surface and leave a deeper impact on your overall well-being.”
Molly-Mae uses the Daily Body Moisturizing Lotion, which usually costs £8.49 but is currently on sale in Boots for £6.37.

“I love Aveeno products,” she said.
“Here I have the Daily Moisturizing Body Lotion.
“This is incredible for dry and cracked skin, which I definitely get in the winter.”
The Maebe owner also revealed she uses Aveeno’s Skin Relief Body Oil Spray, which normally costs £9.49 but is on sale in Boots for £7.12.
A blurb accompanying the oil reads: “Aveeno Skin Relief Body Oil is an oil-based spray that intensively hydrates very dry, sensitive skin, allowing you to enjoy smooth, even skin in just one week.
“96% agreed that skin felt immediately soft.
“The fast-absorbing formula with a silky finish helps relieve and repair very dry skin from the first use by providing long-lasting hydration.
“It improves skin elasticity and uneven skin texture, and is formulated with oat and jojoba oils.
“The formula is rich in lipids and fatty acids and helps restore the skin barrier.”
A blurb on the lotion reads: “Formulated with prebiotic colloidal oatmeal, the clinically proven, fast-absorbing formula locks in moisture to help protect and nourish normal to dry skin.
“The formula preserves the skin’s natural microbiome for healthy-looking and more resilient skin with an improved moisture barrier from first use.”
Earlier this month, Molly-Mae revealed in an interview with British Vogue that not everything in the handbag she carries every day is expensive.
She was excited about a budget-friendly item that comes in handy for her beauty routine and when she goes out with her daughter Bambi.
The influencer wears a leather Bottega Veneta bag ‘every day’, which costs £3,670 at Net-a-Porter.
Best oils for body care
Coconut oil
Coconut oil is highly moisturizing and rich in fatty acids (especially lauric acid), which help nourish the skin and create a protective barrier. It has antimicrobial properties, making it beneficial for soothing irritation and minor skin conditions.
Jojoba oil
Jojoba oil is very similar to the skin’s natural sebum and is therefore excellent at balancing oil production. It is quickly absorbed, moisturizes without being greasy and does not clog pores.
Almond oil
Almond oil – especially the sweet kind – is rich in vitamins A, E and omega-3 fatty acids. These help soothe, soften and nourish the skin. It is lightweight, easily absorbed and has anti-inflammatory properties that are great for irritated or inflamed skin.
Rosehip oil
Rosehip seed oil is rich in vitamins A and C, which help brighten the skin and promote collagen production. It is known for its ability to reduce scars, stretch marks and fine lines while hydrating the skin.
She said a large bag is crucial for moms, but admitted it can be difficult to find what she’s looking for.
The mother-of-one opened up about the items she carries, revealing the “biggest” is a product that costs just £3.
“Wipes, essential for mothers,” she said.
“A bit boring, but these are great if you have a baby, but who doesn’t need a set of wipes?
“These are great for taking off your makeup. They are literally 90 percent water.”
Molly held up WaterWipes Original Baby Wipes, which cost £3 at Asda.
According to the manufacturer, they are designed to “gently” cleanse and protect sensitive skin.
