Winter ❄️ 🧊 means…DRY SKIN!
First cold weather batch of WHIPPED BODY BUTTER because I know I’m not the only one whose skin immediately dries out as soon as that temperature drops enough to warrant the heat coming on!
Sadly, the average Bath & Body Works, Cetaphil, or Aquaphor just isn’t going to cut it because my brand of dry skin absorbs those brands like a toddler left alone with your make up and the Halloween candy 🤣🎃🍫🍬!
It takes something special…something made with raw butters and oils like SHEA NUT, MANGO, COCOA BUTTER and Coconut, Sunflower Seed, Grapeseed and Sweet Almond Oils.
🧈Shea Butter is a fat extracted from the nut of the African Shea tree. This organic butter is loaded with vitamins A, D & E and is used for hydration and rejuvenation. Shea does not clog pores despite its thick consistency and slower absorption rate and promotes collagen production! Use Shea to Improve the health of damaged skin by encouraging the growth of new cells for a rejuvenated look.
🧈Cocoa Butter is ideal for all-over deep hydration. Though it may absorb quicker than Shea, the benefit lasts all day long on your dry and irritated skin. Cocoa butter is a healing source of power. With the combination of strong antioxidants and saturated fats, cocoa butter helps ensure that the skin is both detoxified and fully hydrated. It also has a natural scent that is very similar to chocolate and can help you “lock-in” moisture for lasting hydration.
🧈 Mango butter is actually pressed from the seed, or pit, inside of the mango fruit. It contains high levels of essential fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants. Mango butter does not have a strong scent and is also non-comedogenic, a good choice for congested and acne-prone skin. It is known to tighten and tone the skin to prevent the appearance of wrinkles, blemishes, and scars.
🧴Sweet Almond oil is rich and loaded with vitamins E and D, and is surprisingly lightweight. Not to mention, it’s packed full of antioxidants and emollient properties. It’s fast-absorbing and doesn’t clog your pores, soothes eczema, and eases itching and redness.
🧴Sunflower Seed Oil - This lightweight, silky soft oil is loaded with vitamins known to support healthy, hydrated skin. Sunflower seed oil contains particularly high levels of vitamin E, which provides protection from the sun and other environmental factors. Besides boosting moisture levels, sunflower seed oil actually helps to strengthen your skin’s outer barrier. Anti-inflammatory, reduces redness, and hey, it can be used to detangle and smooth your hair also!!
🧴Coconut Oil is a go-to for itchy, dry winter skin!! This organic, butter-like lubricant is silky soft, practically melting into your skin. Besides being multi-purpose, coconut oil is gentle enough for every skin type and provides all-natural nourishment and hydration. Coconut oil is loaded with vitamins and antioxidants and is believed to contain antibacterial, antiviral, and even antifungal properties.

Listen, hydration is one thing in this season and is absolutely crucial, but a really close second is using a body butter that holds its scent past the 5 minutes of putting it on! That’s a MUST for me as well!! ❤️❤️
