Looking for something natural and very moisturising.

Love Upcircle but can’t afford £22 at the moment!

I’ve used and loved Body Shop body butters but want to try something different.

I use vaseline cocoa butter body butter, smells lovely, cheap and cheerful and currently bogof in superdrug.

Soap & Glory's Righteous Butter is sooooo nice and super moisturising, I still think Body Shop's one is the very best overall though. Love their strawberry one and their Shea butter one xx

Sagittariusrising · 10/10/2023 16:30

@nancypowers1983 I second this! Body Shop are lovely though. I like their coconut one best.

OP - you could just try E45 cream. A big tub lasts ages and is pretty cheap.

Another vote for soap & glory righteous butter!

I sometimes try others, but always come back to this one.

If you want natural, try Weleda skin food body butter.

Even DH who doesn't usually notice, loves the texture of this one. It sinks in really easily esp when your skin is slightly damp

It also smells deliciously chocolatey

I use Palmers Coco Butter! I have dark skin so I find it's best for me. Cheap and cheerful plus veryyyy moisturising

Oh good shout, Palmers is lovely and smells amazing.

gravitytester · 10/10/2023 20:33

I also use Palmers! (I'm super pale and the friend that recommended has dark skin like PP).
I buy a big tub of the solid stuff on Amazon for ≈£10, it lasts really well (and would probably last a lot better if I wasn't so heavy handed!).

Cuntycrunch · 10/10/2023 20:59

@gravitytester yes the solid one is amazing too.

Rituals. All of the body creams are lovely but Mehr is my absolute favourite.

Both my DH and I love this

Loubelle70 · 10/10/2023 21:06

Lush dream cream. Great for dry eczema prone skin and really moisturizing

JerkintheMerkin · 10/10/2023 21:23

Good old Astral.

Crazykefir · 10/10/2023 21:33

I'm currently in love with the knock off Palmers coco butter in lidl. £1.19.

Myneedycat · 10/10/2023 21:37

None of these are natural though apart from Weleda possibly. Have you tried coconut oil?
Essential Spirit do a lovely body lotion. Their stuff is hand made from natural ingredients.

JustGotToKeepOnKeepingOn · 10/10/2023 21:48

I use Aveeno body lotion. Really moisturising but not greasy.

Whattodo112222 · 10/10/2023 21:53

Another vote for Palmers. Its the only thing that keeps my lizard skin moisturised 😅

JustAnotherDayInNorfolk · 10/10/2023 21:56

Super drug vitamin e butter smells really nice, absorbs well and doesn't feel sticky.

Not expensive do we'll worth trying

ThePoshUns · 10/10/2023 22:04

Has to be Weleda skin food. All natural and 3 for 2 in Holland and Barrett at the moment.

The new Garnier ones are lovely, big tubs, lots of flavours.
