Body butter is something that sounds spa-level luxurious and enticing, but what exactly is it? Simply put, it's a richer version of body lotion. Many formulas are whipped, so it's still easy to slather on, and since they have such delicious scents, moisturizing won't feel like a chore. If you have dry skin or just want to be moisturized all Winter, you need to check out one of these body butters.
