Today I want to share my current favourite body moisturisers for the winter time! Now it is getting colder, it is nice to treat your skin with a richer moisturiser to stop it getting dry.
The one I reach for the most is probably the Garnier Intensive 7 Days Ultra Replenishing Lotion. This has a subtle yet lovely scent and provides really good moisturisation for when my skin is feeling dehydrated. This one sinks in the fastest, so it is my go-to for the mornings when I want to get dressed straight away afterwards.
An all-time favourite has to be the Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula Body Moisturiser. I have the one with the pump at the moment, which is so handy, I wish more body moistuisers had this! This one is the most nourishing, I really notice a difference when I use this on a regular basis. I used to adore the scent of this, it smells like cocoa butter and chocolate! I do still like it, but I wish it wasn’t quite as strong scent though, but it is ideal for applying in the evening.
For when my skin is super dry, I reach for the Soap And Glory Righteous Butter. This one is the most rich, definitely classed as a body butter rather than a lotion! This has the classic Soap And Glory scent that I love! Again, one for using in the evening as it is quite rich so takes a little longer to sink in, but brilliant all the same.
So those are my top 3 body moisturisers for fighting dry skin in the colder seasons. Please let me know your recommendations! Xx
Even though I’m pretty good about a facial skincare routine, I’m lazier about body care :/ I’ve been meaning to try Amlactin but it’s kinda pricey! I’m def gonna give that palmer’s one a try now 🙂 Thanks for all the recs!

I know exactly what you mean, I think it’s because our faces are what people see first, but in winter no skin is showing really haha! I’ve not looking into that before, but I can definitely recommend the palmers one! You are welcome 🙂 xxx

I find the same! They seem to keep my skin feeling moisturised the longest for some reason! Agreed, reminds me of chocolate 😍xx
