I usually use body lotion. What is different about this body butter, and where should I apply it?

A body butter and a body lotion do similar work, but the texture is different. This BISOU body butter is rich and slow-spreading, so it gives a fuller, more cocooning feel than a gel or milk. It is usually chosen by people who want a softer, smoother feel after showering, especially on legs, elbows and hands.

• Use it after a shower or bath, ideally on slightly damp skin if you want easier spreading. You can also apply it to dry skin if you prefer a denser layer.
• Take a small amount and warm it between your palms first. The butter becomes easier to massage as it softens with body heat.
• Focus on dry or rough spots such as elbows, knees, shins and hands, then wait a few minutes before getting dressed.

Because the texture is rich and slow to absorb, it is a sensible choice for evening application, colder weather, or any time the skin feels depleted. If you use it before dressing, use a smaller amount or allow extra time. This product is for external use only and should not be applied near the eyes. If your skin is sensitive to fragrance, test a small area first. Stop using it if irritation appears.
