Luxurious feel body moisturizer wanted - effective too.

[PinkLipsDontLie]

After the million bucks thread I realized I feel great when my whole body is moisturized. I have dry skin on my body and particularly my legs are flaky and show white cracks of dehydration if I don't use something on them daily. However if my legs are not on show, I get lazy with daily hydration.
Could you please recommend a body cream/lotion that will feel so pampering and luxurious that will motivate me to use it often? It def needs to have a scent and keep dry skin hydrated for as many of the 24hrs as possible, as I can only apply once daily.
Also I prefer bottles with pumps better. Could also do a jar. But no tubes; they are a nightmare to use.
In terms of ingredients: no mineral oil, no parabens for sure.
I would equally love both pricey and cheaper suggestions.

I use Aveeno. It fulfils your 'effective' criteria but not your 'luxurious' one.

Thanks @squoosh but this will not keep me motivated. I am looking for something that will transfer me to a spa for 5 minutes, before reality of the day kicks in.

This is gorgeous m.origins.co.uk/product/15366/38372/bath-body/moisturize/body-creams/ginger-souffle/whipped-body-cream

This is a very good less £££ substitute which is sometimes on offer in Tesco www.soaperduper.com/product/invigorating-zingy-ginger-body-butter/

(If ginger is not your thing, plenty of other fragrances)

I just checked the ingredients on my Sanctuary body soufflé. No mineral oil or parabens. That stuff rules. Smells fab, sinks in beautifully and has agreeable bubbly texture. Is about £10 I think.

I swear swear swear by this bad boy! It's wicked. Smells gorgeous and is super moisturising and luxurious. If u look on Amazon they often sell a trial bottle which is small and about a tenner.

The origins ones are excellent. There is one relatively unscented version which is my perfect body moisturiser for after a bath.

Korres ones are lovely, but in tubes.

Aveeno stuff is the absolute best though. Maybe you could decant it into a better looking pot, if such things really concern you.

Origins seem promising! Need to check out the scents. I am a sucker for the words whipped and soufflé in the name.
Korres have strange texture, I find them unpleasant to rub in and slow to absorb.
Sanctuary is the same as sanctuary spa?
Elemis must be great but being an oil that solidifies, I am afraid will serve as little more than bedroom decoration for lazy me.
Aveeno not only doesn't have fancy packaging, it also has no scent?

Rituals honey touch body cream

Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess whipped body creme.

Yes, Sanctuary is the same as Sanctuary Spa. They sell it in Boots.

My favourite is Ren Moroccan Rose body cream - Ren do 20% off sometimes or you can probably get in M&S - its £37 full price but quite a bit pot

I use almond oil from sainsbury, you could add a scent to it if you wanted. It works better than anything else I have ever used.

I think Champneys Body Butters at Boots fulfill all your criteria. Thick but easily absorbed and smell lovely.

Clarins Moisture Rich body lotion is incredible.

Alternatively, the Clarins Tonic body lotion. Love the smell!!

I was about to say the Clarins Moisture Rich one too (it's currently keeping my crepey decolletage at bay overnight, when I remember to use it....)

These two places have products with more complex and interesting scents:

Here you go - comes with a pump, looks nice in your bathroom, no mineral oil / parabens, multi-purpose (I use it on my face & body), smells lush, very hydrating. I love it!

Soap and Glory here - skin stays soft for the rest of the day

The Laura mercier stuff is gorgeous but so pricey

My all time favourite is Diptyque's Lait Frais. It's the most gorgeous smell in the world to me - creamy orange blossom. Leaves me skin lovely and soft all day. It's 34 bloody quid but worth it.

Rituals Yin.
It smells divine.

Another clarins moisture rich body lotion fan here. It's fantastic.
Or if you want a cheaper option then Garnier ones are good too.

Sanctuary in shower moisturiser, finish shower, slap on no rinsing,dry yourself, done. Keeps my dry skin nice and soft and I don't have to spend ages rubbing in lotions and potions.
