I'm looking for something that smells heavenly but also moisturises my skin.

I will be using it on arms, shoulders, neck, elbows and knees!

My skin is a little dry but no specific problems as such.

Any suggestions gratefully received x

A bit left field but The Body Shop Strawberry Body Yoghurt smells utterly divine, I actually look forward to using it each morning!

Bumping as I am also interested in this thread. I always used to use Laura Mercier body cream but they discontinued this and replaced it with serum body cream which is considerably less quantity for the same price.

Palmer’s cocoa butter is hard to beat and is inexpensive too

The most luxurious cream that rubs in well, and I use and have loads of body lotions and cream... is...

L’Occitane Shea Rich body lotion. There’s a cream version as well but the lotion is very moisturising

Soap and Glory Call of Fruity body butter.

Really lovely, long-lasting scent and nice and rich/moisturising.

The body butters from The Body shop! Combine it with dry brushing and you will have amazing skin!

Rituals body cream. Lovely big (refillable) jars and quite a few to choose from. Rich and a little goes a long way. I love the Ayurveda one or Hammam one.

Just treated myself to St Ives oat and shea butter body lotion. Upgrade on my usual Neutrogena.

Seconding Rituals body cream, I use the the sakura blossom scent and it always feels like such a treat, and leaves my skin feeling silky.

I was going to recommend this one. It does smell quite strong though.

ArcticBells · 22/11/2023 20:16

Sainsbury's cocoa butter body lotion. Cheap but good.

Itsallrhubarb · 22/11/2023 20:45

The blue bottle of nivea is good. I find its thick but goes on and dries quickly. I use it a few times a week on my knees, elbows etc and daily on my hands.

WingBingo · 22/11/2023 20:48

Yes this, every time. It’s delicious and I get a lot of comments about it.

read about it on here , it was a funny thread.

Thanks for the suggestions.

I've been using Bum Bum recently but didn't want to admit it! I adore the smell but not convinced it is actually a great moisturiser.
