Hello beautiful people! What's cooking good looking? ;)
I've got something special in store for y'all today.. All Natural Body Butter! Excited Much?!
What's body butter? What's the difference between body butter and lotion? Is there even a difference?
Read Below.. hope it clears up some questions that may be running through your mind!
What is a body butter butter? - Body butter is
a body moisturizing cream. Sometimes called a parfait because it is whipped to
provide lighter and easier application. It is designed to provide intense,
long-lasting moisturizing for your skin.
How is body butter different from lotion? - Body
butter vs lotion is a question asked frequently. The answer lies in the
ingredients and composition. By definition, lotion contains water. Some
lotions contain up to 70% water. While it is understood that our bodies need
water, we know that if we just spread water on our skin, dryness follows
shortly thereafter. Lotion tries to minimize this by adding in moisturizing
agents and other ingredients. But our skin knows the difference and all too
often the lotion wears off quickly and leaving us embarrassed by dry skin.
Body butter is composed primarily of oils and butters. Many
of these natural oils and butters can penetrating the surface of the skin to
help nourish and condition skin. The result is skin that is visibly smoother
and silky soft. When included in your daily skin care regime, there
simply is no comparison.
How do I use body butter? - Simply stated, use
body butter the same way you would use lotion. Body butters are designed for
use all over the body. Many avoid using body butters on the face simply because
sometimes the face does not respond kindly heavy oils the way your body does.
Use daily after showering. The butters then get to work
quenching thirsty skin and leaving behind skin that is soft and silky smooth.
For best results, use body butter immediately after showering when your pores
and skin are the most receptive to moisturizing and conditioning agents.
Will it be greasy? - No! Absolutely not! No one
wants to walk around with heavily oiled skin. The reaction to body butter is
consistent. Men and women are amazed that is absorbs so wonderfully leaving
behind silky soft skin.
