Body Lotion vs Body Butter

​We are so excited! We are in the process of creating our next great product! Today is the day....we are in the lab working on PE’s amazing Body Butter!

The development of our new product had me thinking. What do you know about the differences between body lotion and body butter? Just in case you are not sure, I thought it would be a good idea to briefly explain. After all, sharing information is the reason we are here!
 
Many of us are not sure why we choose to use body lotion instead of body butter. To be totally honest, I’ve always chosen lotion because of the price. What I was not aware of is how much better body butter is for my skin! Today, my choice is quality over cost!

Let me explain to you what I mean….Body lotion, although a similar product to body butter based on the fact that it ‘moisturizes’, is not as good for your skin because it does not contain the best ingredients.

Have you ever noticed how often you have to apply lotion in order to ensure moisture? The reason why is because more usual than not, body lotion contains more water than the ingredients that help keep the skin moisturized. Body butter, on the other hand contains nut butter (in our case, coconut butter, shea butter, aloe butter and mango butter) and essential oils. If you’ve used body butter before, then you would agree that when compared to lotion, the texture of body butter is much thicker and it hydrates a lot better. This is because each ingredient serves its individual purpose (click here for information). Each oil is a humectant, emollient substance that traps and locks in moisture while protecting the skin from external toxins. Unfortunately for us lotion users (well no longer do I fit into that category), most lotion does not have either of these capabilities.

​So all of this being said, aside from wanting to inform you of our newest product which will be online soon, I wanted to stress to you the importance of considering body butter over lotion. If you are a woman whose skin is of great importance, then please do your research. You will find that in order to ensure that your skin is in its most beautiful state, body butter is the best choice.

Stay tune for the launch of our new product, PE’s Natural Body Butter!

And remember, enjoy being beautiful, naturally!

Free being me, naturally….
