I am a lotion freak! I always put it on as soon as I get out of the shower and right before bed. I love to slather it on my feet and then put some fluffy socks on. My favorites are Burt's Bees Carrot Nutritive body lotion, Origins cocoa therapy, Origins Lavender & Vanilla souffle, and Hempz herbal moisturizer.

 
ditto lisa. i live to moisturize! derma e lavendar and geranium body lotion mixed with eo rose and chamomile body quencher. for the feet, cvs petroleum jelly cream and those fluffy socks. makes my skin feel smooth as "butta"!

 
My favourite one is by an Aussie company called Mors ( dont know if you get it in the States or not) and is Marshmallow Body Butter. It is absolutely gorgeous....thick, creamy, reallllllllly moisturising and smells a bit like soft roses and musk candy all in one... they have a whole range of other body products as well and their body butters are available in different fragrances like Nougat, Sorbet, Limoncello... yum.:icon_smil

 
Another vote for Gold Bond Ultimate Healing. Best stuff I've ever used and I've used a lot of different creams and lotions.

 
Creamy vaseline. It's about $2.50 a tube.

I had always put it on my feet any time I wear socks (when I wore work boots, when I work out) and it kept them super-soft.

I started using it recently as a body lotion, and it's the best thing ever. Because I live in Florida, I can wear shorts most days, so it's perfect. I'm not sure I would want to wear it under jeans or lined pants, though.

I also mix it with a little AHA I have - makes my elbows soft as a baby's behind.

 
Aveeno Creamy Moisturizing Oil really takes the itch away all day, and leaves my skin really soft without being greasy at all. It also has a subtle pleasant scent...I'm not much on perfumes. I recently ran out of my Aveeno and had to settle for Bath and Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar. I smelled like a cookie all day!

Aveeno oatmeal baths before bed time are also really soothing.

 
I have just in the last couple of weeks found a new favorite body lotion, it's Vaseline Intensive Care Firming & Radiance Age-Defying. I put it on every morning after my shower & the next morning my skin still feels real smooth & not greasy at all, I love this stuff:)

 
My only favorite body moisturizers are my Body Shop Body Lotion and Butters...

I especially love grapeseed, brazilian nut,vanilla,coconut,avocado,banana,strawberry, satsuma...

They all makes my skin so smooth,soft and absolutely smelling good for a long time.

I loooove Body Shop:icon_love :smilehappyyes:

 
I SWEAR that after trying aaaaaaaaaaaall kinds of lotions -- expensive and inexpensive -- Lachydrin is the best. It's available at drugstores (you usually have to look on one of the bottom shelves) and, although a bit expensive (@$12.00/bottle), it WORKS. You can even apply it to dry skin as opposed to the usual recommendation that you apply while skin is damp. It's a little stinky when it goes on (the lactic acid) but the smell goes away as soon as it's dry. Try it! You'll like it!

 
Cetaphil in the big tub has been my pick for years but I think Ive found a new one with the Koru Naturals Manuka Honey/Shea body butter....the more I use it the more I like it

 
I have quite dry skin, especially my legs, they're awful. I love Clinique's Deep Comfort Body Butter! Rich w/o being greasy, and has a very light scent, almost no scent actually. It's spendy though.

 
Bump.

I need more info about body moisturizer for winter.

I've tried :

TBS body butter (Good)

Samourai body butter (Okay)

Elisabeth Arden Green Tea body cream (great but the scent is too strong)

Loccitane Shea butter(Love it but hard to apply)

Raw shea butter(I hate the smell)

Overall, I loved them. But, I want to try something else but with a soft scents and moisturise well.

Any new recommendation?

TIA

 
Believe it or not, all I've been using lately is Johnson's Baby Lotion, and it's great! Really thick too! I figured if it helps keep a baby's skin soft after they've been born with the cracking & chafing from having been in the womb for months, then it should work for me... And it does!
