  • What is the difference between body butter, creams and lotion?"
    1. Body Butters The thickest of the three. Butters are the essential fats and minerals at are extracted from natural ingredients (palm, shea, cocoa, mango etc.) It has the strongest scent and lasts longer than both creams and lotions. Body butter products typically use a combination of butters, oils, and essential butters and do not typically contain water. Body butters are applied to retain moisture, lubricate and nourish the skin. Body butter can be used on lips, hands, elbows, legs and feet. Some absorb into the skin quickly while others may leave a slight oily barrier depending on skin type and formulation. 2. Skin Cream Cream products are thinner than body butters. Creams usually contain the same basic ingredients as butters, plus water based ingredients, perhaps including aloe, hydrosol or a herbal infusion. A cream may have butters or solid fats in it, but not necessarily. 3. Body Lotion Lotions are similar to creams but are even lighter (because they contain more water) and provide the thinnest type of application. It will not necessarily moisturize as much or stay on as long as a butter or cream might. Usually lotions are applied to the arms, stomach and thighs.
