QV is an Australian made and owned skincare brand founded in 1953 as Ego originally. Known for the now named Pinetarsol product, the founders of the brand saw a need to develop a product that restored and maintained healthy skin. QV now has a broad range of products including cleansers, exfoliators, bath oils, serums and a number of moisturisers for different skin types, allowing you to find something that best fits your skin’s needs and sensitivities, with multiple container sizes also available to purchase.
Moisturising your body once a day is ideal for most people and can help to keep your skin healthy and hydrated. For some, moisturising may be necessary more often if they suffer from any skin conditions, however it is best to speak to a medical professional to assess your needs.
Some moisturisers do have SPF in them however it is more common for facial moisturisers to contain SPF. Using sunscreen on your body regardless of whether it comes in a moisturiser is ideal to help prevent sun damage and ageing, but speak to a healthcare professional if you’re unsure about what to use.
