0 0

Halloo,

It is a generally accepted fact that we all need to apply a skincare product after taking a bath daily. Applying skincare product daily makes us comfortable and makes our skin looks good. Well, how well your choice of daily skincare product works for you depends on your skin type.

Many of us are confused as to which one to choose between butter, cream, or lotion. we are forever wondering which will be the best one to deliver our skincare desire. This won’t be a problem for someone who know their skin type.

Daily skincare products are to nourish your skin and give added benefits according to your desire. Just remember that your choice should not be on a whim but according to your skin type.

Different skin types require different needs and nutrients to function and glow beautifully. So the type of skincare products you choose needs to match your skin type to get the maximum benefits and desired results.

To see improvements and maximise your skin potential don’t just grab any skincare products off the shelf, buy according to your skin type.

BODY BUTTER

Body butter does not contain any water and is made completely out of oils and butters. Slightly different from balms because it contains no beeswax. Though both a moisturizers and a balm are good for getting that plumped complexion,

Body Butter is ideal for really dry, flaky skin.

• Body butter is best for managing extremely dry skin and sensitive skin
• Butter is also great for all skin types in periods of acute dryness
• Butter is great at providing a protective top layer on the skin, especially in winter
• Body butter is both hydrating and nourishing
• Body Butter lasts a long time because you use a very small amount, unlike cream and lotion
• Butter glides onto the skin easily, something dry skin desperately need and enjoy
• Body butter doesn’t contain water so it doesn’t need an emulsifier or a preservative.
• Body butter has a heavier, more hydrating feeling than lotion and cream
• Some people may have oily skin but have dry patches on elbows, hands, and feet. Butter can be a solution.
• Butter helps soften the skin and relieve any flakiness

BODY CREAM

Body Cream is a mixture of butter, oil and water, and other emulsifier to keep the cream thick and consistent.

Body Cream is ideal for normal and combination skin.

• Body cream gives the skin brightness and nourishment
• Body cream protects and hydrates the skin
• Body cream is ideal for all skin types
• Body cream is great for both the body and face
• Body cream is not as greasy as butter and not as watery as lotion

BODY LOTION

Body Lotion is created by combining oils and water with an emulsifier. The main ingredient being water making it lightweight. A perfect choice for oily skin.

Body Lotion is ideal for oily skin.

• Body Lotion has a lightweight consistency that absorbs quickly into the skin
• Lotion is great for both the body and face
• Protects against moisture loss
• Improves the skin’s barrier function
• Body lotion is a perfect daily moisturizer really oily skin

It is important to note that the skin type on the face maybe the different to the skin type on the body in a person. this means using 2 types of products instead of one.

I also find it extremely helpful to layer on cream and butter daily for my extremely dry skin. A great tip for winter. However, it may be too heavy for the face. Using one serum or one oil blend can’t do it all. So a complete regimen would ideally mean layering on products of different weights to address different things.

I am a firm believer that you don’t need to have too many skincare products in your routine once you know your skin type and skin needs.

Stay with me,
