Sol de Janeiro Expands Body Badalada with New Lotion Textures and Signature Scents

Body lotion has officially become more fun. Sol de Janeiro is expanding its popular Body Badalada collection with three distinct lotion textures, each designed to suit different skin needs while pairing hydration with one of the brand's signature Cheirosa fragrances.

Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, the new Body Badalada range lets you choose your preferred finish, from silky and lightweight to water-fresh or deeply nourishing. Every formula delivers up to 24 hours of weightless hydration, absorbs quickly without leaving skin sticky, and transforms an everyday moisturising routine into something you'll actually look forward to.

Did Sol de Janeiro need another body product? Last year, we rounded up the best Sol de Janeiro products to buy in Singapore, and with the brand only getting more popular, each new launch draws even more attention. Plus, this launch also speaks to a slightly different crowd—those after something fuss-free, quick to use, and easy to work into an everyday routine. It is also a great introduction to someone who is yet to try the brand’s Bum Bum cream, via an easier lotion-like format. 

Smelling like a summer dream, but of course!

The Iconic Cheirosa 62

If you know the Brazilian Bum Bum Cream, you perhaps already love this iconic scent. Badalada Vitamin-Infused Lotion is laced with Sol de Janeiro’s signature Cheirosa 62™ fragrance, a warm, sweet, sunny scent that smells like pistachio gelato, caramel drizzle, and beach skin all at once. 

In Portuguese, cheirosa means someone who smells incredibly delicious, and the Badalada lotion carries this legacy into a skin-melting formula.

It blends notes of heliotrope and jasmine petals, giving it that sweet and creamy tone, while pistachio, salted caramel, vanilla and peters it down to something warm and indulgent without being overpowering.  

Body Badalada Moisture Melting Lotion, Cheirosa 39

If richer body lotions are more your style, the Moisture Melting Lotion offers the most cocooning experience in the collection. Its clever milk-to-butter texture starts off light before melting seamlessly into skin, delivering long-lasting hydration without leaving behind a heavy or sticky finish.

The formula combines nourishing coconut milk, a pro-ceramide to help support the skin's moisture barrier, and Brazilian buriti oil to lock in moisture, leaving skin feeling soft, smooth and comfortable throughout the day. Finished with the warm, beach-inspired Cheirosa 39 fragrance, it's the lotion to reach for when skin needs extra comfort or after a long day in the sun.

Body Badalada Skin Refresh Water Lotion, Cheirosa 48

Designed for those who love barely-there skincare, the Skin Refresh Water Lotion has an ultra-light water-gel texture that feels instantly cooling on contact. It absorbs within seconds, leaving skin fresh, hydrated and comfortable without any sticky residue, making it especially appealing for Singapore's warm, humid weather.

The formula combines moisture-boosting multi-glycerin with antioxidant-rich guava leaf essence and hydrating star fruit extract to help replenish thirsty skin while keeping it soft and healthy-looking throughout the day. Finished with the sparkling, juicy Cheirosa 48 fragrance, it feels more like a refreshing splash than a traditional body lotion, making it an easy everyday pick after a shower or before heading out.

A More Personal Take on Body Care

The biggest update isn't simply three new lotions. Sol de Janeiro is encouraging users to choose a texture that matches both their skin's needs and their mood, creating a more personalised body care routine. Whether you prefer something cooling after a workout, lightweight for daytime, or richer before bed, there's now a Body Badalada formula to suit the moment. The collection also makes it easy to explore different Cheirosa scents without changing the rest of your skincare routine.

The expanded Body Badalada collection is now available at Sephora stores and online.
