Paige DeSorbo Praises 'Perfection in a Bottle' Hanni Water Balm

Paige DeSorbo has revealed her favorite body care product: Hanni Water Balm. In a Q&A for writer Erika Veurink’s Long Live Substack newsletter, the podcast host described the moisturizing mist as “perfection in a bottle,” distinguishing it from typical lotions.

DeSorbo expressed a common frustration with greasy body products that do not effectively soften skin and take too long to dry. "There is nothing worse than lotion that is too greasy but doesn’t make your skin soft and takes forever to dry,” she stated, highlighting the rapid absorption of the Hanni Water Balm.

The product is marketed as a “weightless hydrating mist” that absorbs quickly, preventing it from staining clothing. It can also be reapplied throughout the day as needed. Online reviews echo DeSorbo's sentiment. One Amazon customer wrote, “It solves everything I hate about lotion,” adding that the Hanni alternative “absorbs really well and gives your legs/skin a beautiful sheen.”

While DeSorbo specifically mentioned the Sparkling Palmarosa scent, which features floral and woodsy notes, the brand also offers a Wildwood Vanille fragrance.

Hanni has previously seen significant attention when Bethenny Frankel endorsed the brand’s shower scarf, which subsequently sold out. Frankel described the accessory as a “game changer.”
