I've tried Palms and found it too greasey also Aldis lacura is to thin.

The Righteous Butter from Soap and Glory or L'Occitane Shea butter in pump dispenser!
These are both my favourites, luxurious, great for my dry, excema probe skin, but sink in quickly which is handy in the mornings!

Do you have a home bargains near you? Their own brand coconut body butter is lovely only 99p a tub and sinks into skin well with no greasiness hth Smile

Not terribly glamorous but the Vaseline lotion in the white bottle is great and really moisturising

Fluffydressinggown · 03/04/2013 21:16

Boots body butter from the Naturals range is great.

Gregssausageroll · 03/04/2013 21:17

I like the Vaseline in the brown packaging.

SilkandSteel · 03/04/2013 21:34

I second the vaseline in the shite bottle

SilkandSteel · 03/04/2013 21:34

white bottle Blush

TigerseyeMum · 03/04/2013 21:49

Astral is good.

Iatemyskinnyperson · 03/04/2013 21:54

Aveeno Cream Oil is lush. Very moisturising but sinks in v quickly.

OneLittleLady · 03/04/2013 21:59

Lush Dream Cream is good. Lasts for ages as well

AlwaysSleepingBeauty · 03/04/2013 22:40

I love Dream Cream too.

ujjayi · 03/04/2013 23:38

Am so busy laughing at SilkandSteel that I can barely remember the purpose of thread!!Grin

Organic Surge Bergamot body lotion is lovely. Works a treat on my dry skin but sinks in quickly.

hedgefund · 03/04/2013 23:39

rituals stuff is great costs £££ but worth it

Graceparkhill · 03/04/2013 23:46

Have you thought about a body oil? Neutrogena do a lovely one.

Josie1974 · 04/04/2013 08:55

Double base. Prescribed for eczema for my dc, it is the best moisturiser I've ever come across. It has sorted my horrid dry knees from kneeling all the time with the kids. I use all the time now.
Costs £10 something OTC at pharmacy for big pump action bottle.

mrsmoscow · 04/04/2013 09:34

I love Aveeno. Sinks in fast and leaves skin very soft. Hand cream great too. Quite cheap too- is on offer at mo in Boots.
Has done wonders for my ds's excema too. Much better than anything GP prescribed Smile

valiumredhead · 04/04/2013 10:23

La Roche Posay - a tenner well spent imo.

StepAwayFromTheEcclesCakes · 04/04/2013 15:52

my absolute fave is the garnier intensive 7 days stuff in the green bottle. cheap enough and leaves me all smooth and silky even DH noticed.

IJustWoreMyTrenchcoat · 04/04/2013 17:55

I used to use this Dove and bought a pot recently. It was one of the few body creams that didn't make me all sticky which is my pet hate. 1/2 price in Superdrug now, I usually buy from Bodycare.

spottymoo · 04/04/2013 20:10

Lots of lovely recommendations thank you all I'm off to the shops tomorrow to see what I can get Grin

I really like Superdrug's own brand vitamin E body cream - absolute bargain at £2.99 and even more so when it's on offer like now!

PeachTown · 05/04/2013 09:06

Nivea Soft?

spottymoo · 12/04/2013 13:23

i got the vaseline intenseive body moisturiser so far so good and it soaks in really well and it was half price at morrisons for £1.49 :)
