Herbal Barrier Recovery Body Lotion
A silky, high-concentration urea body lotion designed for keratosis pilaris, dryness, rough texture, and weakened skin barriers.
Infused with traditional herbal extracts — Panax Notoginseng and Walnut — and enriched with urea, ceramides, hyaluronic acid, jojoba oil, and panthenol, it works to soften keratin, deeply hydrate, soothe sensitivity, and strengthen the barrier, gradually restoring skin’s suppleness, smoothness, and resilience.
- Can be used alone to provide deep hydration and barrier repair for daily dry-skin care.
- For enhanced results, apply after the Herbal Revitalizing Body Spray: the spray helps loosen keratin and refine texture, while this lotion seals in moisture and further improves roughness and bumps.
- Deeply hydrates and locks in moisture, keeping skin soft and balanced
- Softens keratin buildup, reducing roughness and “chicken skin” texture
- Strengthens the skin barrier for greater resilience
- Relieves dryness and tightness while calming sensitivity
- Improves uneven texture for smoother, refined skin
- Nourishing yet lightweight — suitable year-round
- Especially effective for keratosis pilaris and dry, sensitive skin, but safe for general use
- Keratosis pilaris (chicken skin)
- Body acne concerns
- Heavy keratin buildup
- Dry or dehydrated skin
- Dull or post-acne scarred skin
- Sensitive or fragile skin
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women
- Anyone seeking smooth, supple, and radiant skin
⚠️ Not Recommended For:
- Those allergic to nut oils (e.g. walnut, shea butter) or essential oils

Alone
Apply an appropriate amount to clean, dry skin — especially arms, thighs, calves, or back. Massage in circular motions until absorbed. Use 1–2 times daily, ideally after showering.
Layered Routine
After showering, first apply the Herbal Revitalizing Body Spray to rough or bumpy areas. Once fully absorbed, follow with this lotion and massage gently. This two-step care further softens keratin and enhances hydration — ideal for keratosis pilaris or chronically dry skin.

Keratosis pilaris — dryness is the true culprit.
The roughness and bumps of keratosis pilaris are not simply caused by excess keratin. When skin becomes dehydrated and its barrier compromised, keratin renewal falls out of balance, leading to a vicious cycle.
Many people turn to exfoliation as the only solution, overlooking that dryness is the real root cause. Repeated removal offers only temporary smoothness; only by replenishing moisture and repairing the barrier can skin truly improve, gradually regaining softness and refinement.
Zenova’s Herbal Repairing Barrier Body Lotion addresses both sides: urea to soften keratin plugs, combined with ceramides and hyaluronic acid to rebuild the barrier. Hydration and repair work hand in hand — opening the path to true balance.
More than just a body lotion.
Ordinary lotions only provide temporary hydration, while Zenova softens keratin, repairs the barrier, and locks in deep moisture — directly addressing the vicious cycle of keratosis pilaris and dryness.
FAQ
Your questions, our answers — making skin care more transparent.
It is especially beneficial for keratosis pilaris, rough and dry skin, but also works well as a daily moisturizer for general dry skin.

Because this lotion contains high levels of urea and nourishing ingredients, it may initially feel like a protective film. Try:
- Applying in small amounts, more frequently, instead of a thick layer all at once
- Using on slightly damp skin (e.g., after showering and gently towel-drying) to enhance absorption and reduce stickiness
- In hot weather or for oily skin, apply only to rough or dry areas, rather than all over
- Sensitive skin: Perform a patch test first; if no irritation, continue use.
- Eczema: Not recommended on areas with severe redness, wounds, or acute flare-ups. Wait until skin has calmed before use.
