Body butter

Benefits of Body Butter

Body Butters are made without water and are thicker, almost solid at room temperature. Like mentioned earlier, they are made from natural oils, usually from nut and seed extracts. The ones made with natural and organic ingredients with little or no preservatives & chemicals deliver intense moisturization. Here are some other benefits of body butter.

     1. Rich Moisturization

Body butter replenishes the natural moisture of the skin and locks it in, it’s a godsend for dry and parched skin as it makes it softer, smoother and healthier. People born with oily skin should opt for natural body butters as it will keep their skin nourished and supple, without clogging pores and causing breakouts. However, for oily skin, one can do away with applying it on the face. For sensitive or irritated skin, body butter can prove to be more of a treatment as it reduces inflammation and soothes the skin, it helps retain moisture and prevents dryness & itchiness.

     2. Reduces Stretch Marks 

Skin is quite stretchy, but if it grows/stretches too quickly it may not be able to keep up, that’s when you end up with stretch marks, while getting rid of stretch marks completely is not a possibility, applying body butter in the nascent stage reduces redness, relieves itching and prevents stretch marks from appearing

     3. Heals Cracks & Dry Feet: 

YES! Body butter is a treat for your tired, dried and cracked heels. Just soak your feet in warm water for a few minutes and give your feet a good body butter lovin. If you have cracked heels, you can apply body butter before bed, put on socks on and you’ll wake up to soft and smooth feet.

     4. Remove Make-up 

No, we are not buttering anyone here! But, buttering your face at the end of the day will definitely help get rid of stubborn makeup. Take a small amount and gently massage your face, take a cotton pad and gently wipe off the makeup. It can even help remove waterproof mascara with ease, just ensure it doesn’t get into your eyes.

     5.Heals Sunburn

Apart from hurting your skin, sunburn can really dry out your skin. The more your skin is exposed to the sun the more it is stripped off of its natural moisture, slathering yourself in some body butter will restore the lost moisture and soothe your skin from the sunburn.

     6. Nourishes Cuticles 

Instead of investing in a different cuticle cream you can simply use the body butter on them to get instant nourishment. Take a small quantity and gently massage for a minute or two. For best results apply it before going to bed at night to lock in the moisture and keep your cuticles healthy.

     7. Delays Premature Aging

Due to triglycerides, vitamins and other nutrients present in vegan body butter, it makes the perfect anti-ageing product. Not only does it reduce fine lines, wrinkles, treat dark spots and uneven skin tone but it also blurs away acne scars.
