Any recommendations for body butter?

I’m in my fifties and find I need more than a moisturiser for my arms and legs. I’ve been using up a body shop body butter that DD had and didn’t like.

I don’t mind spending more than body shop prices but not too high end.

Can anyone recommend something that absorbs nicely and smells divine?

The beauty pie super healthy skin crème is honestly the best I’ve ever used and smells incredible!

L’Occitane is pricey but I got 50% discount buying a set on QVC special weekend with free p&p.

Agree. Beauty Pie really excel at body moisturisers - never had a bad one. The creams are a great texture, I generally find body butters annoyingly thick and difficult to rub in.

QVC L’Occitane offers

I would have said lush… but may have to review that after reading about the company on here recently 🥺 will follow for inspiration

Thanks for all the recommendations.

And thank you @JaniceLongSchlong for the qvc link. They have the reset serum I love but can never justify paying full price!

Not a butter but I love the Rituals mousse ( Ritual of Sakura ) after the shower foam.
I don;t wear perfume but this lasts on my skin.

I switched from Body Shop to the Vaseline intensive body butter - much cheaper, and doesn't make my very sensitive skin react. Aveeno also do a range of intensive body moisturisers that are good.

This one - you can thank me later!!!

I use baby oil or bio oil (doesn’t work for scars but super hydrating) let them dry.

Then dove pro age range body butter / or Weleda skin food body butter and my skin is super soft.
