I have to admit, I am a creature of intense habit when it comes to Winter bodycare. I'm also a creature of not-a-zillion-pounds. I'd much rather, in all honesty, go all out on the facial skincare/makeup with my hard-earned dolla, so my poor body gets a little neglected. I have incredibly dry skin on my body (I think I just divert all oils to my poor face) so I really should be better at looking after it! My high-street faves are long term staples without a totally crippling price tag - oh, and they smell glorious to boot.
The Body Shop are all over the body butter market. The coconut version is my absolute favourite and has been for years. The scent is gorgeous (well, if you like coconuts) without being overpowering, and it is richly, deeply moisturising. This works as a brilliant aftersun moisturiser too, from experience; and at about £15 for a massive tub? It's a steal. The Body Shop regularly have amazing sales and offers on, so get on that email list and stock up!
Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Daily Skin Therapy Lotion is another all-time favourite for me. It comes in a whacking great big pump dispenser for ease of use, and lasts for ages. At approximately a fiver for 400ml, you can't go wrong. The smell is lovely - comforting, vanilla-ey - and it is super moisturising on my extra-dry skin.

Despite not being able to use cocoa or shea butter on my face, my body loves them, especially at this time of year! xx
