What is a Brazilian body butter cream?
A Brazilian body butter cream is an ultra-rich moisturizer loaded with nourishing butters and oils (many sourced from Brazil's extraordinary rainforest biodiversity) that deliver deep, long-lasting hydration. Our Delícia Drench Body Butter uses bacuri butter (a Brazilian superfruit butter that locks in moisture and restores skin's barrier), prebiotic hibiscus, hyaluronic acid, and our Brazilian Soothing Complex, all in a whipped, melt-into-skin formula that feels as delicious as it sounds.
What is the difference between body butter and body lotion?
Body butter is significantly richer, with a much higher concentration of nourishing butters and oils. It’s ideal for seriously dry skin or areas that need real moisture replenishment. Body lotion is lighter, faster-absorbing, better for everyday all-over use. Richness (and so, texture) is really what separates them.
Is body butter cream good for dry skin?
It's a must for dry skin. One of our best body butters for dry skin is Delícia Drench Body Butter, which was specifically formulated for extra-dry skin, using a multi-layer moisture approach that penetrates deep below the surface. Bacuri butter restores the skin barrier, hyaluronic acid draws moisture in, and the Brazilian Soothing Complex calms skin that's feeling stressed. Apply once and you'll understand why we named it delícia (delicious).
How often should you use body butter cream?
As often as your skin asks for it, which often means at least once a day, after your shower. For very dry skin or particularly parched patches (elbows, knees, heels), go for morning and night. Our body butter formulas absorb beautifully despite their richness, leaving a velvety finish rather than a greasy one.
Where should you apply body butter cream?
Everywhere, but especially the driest spots: elbows, knees, heels, shins, and anywhere that feels tight or rough. Massage in generous circles all over your body post-shower, focusing extra love on those rough patches. For an intensive overnight treatment, apply a thick layer to dry areas before bed. Wake up to the softest skin of your life.
Can body butter be used year-round?
Yes, and we'd argue it should be. While body butter earns its MVP status in the winter when cold air strips skin of moisture, anyone with dry or very dry skin needs it twelve months a year. All of our body butters are deliciously scented with a fragrance that feels as irresistible in January as it does in July. No seasonality. No rules. Just soft skin, all year round.
