How to get a mood lift from our Body Butter
Why our body butter is more than a moisturiser, it's a mood lifting ritual for you.
Of course, its going to moisturise and soften your skin, but it's about so much more than that.
Have you ever walked past a garden and suddenly thought, wow, that smells amazing? Or caught the scent of something that instantly took you somewhere else? It's those little moments that inspire us to create body butters designed to engage three senses, smell, touch and sight, and turning an every day moisturising moment into something you can actually look forward to.
The first, of course, is smell. It might be lavender, soft and familiar; jasmine, purely elegant and floral, or frankincense, earthy and grounding. We want to connect you to the scent before you even put in on your skin - that simple act of turning the lid on the tin, taking that first inhale and letting the aroma wash over you. Life moves so quickly these days. Sometimes, something as simple as the scent of something natural can be enough to make you stop for a moment and be right where you are.
Secondly, we can't forget touch. We work hard behind the scenes, testing and tweaking until we get the balance just right - enough slip to glide beautifully over your skin while still absorbing nicely and one that feels sensational soon after its been applied. When your skin feels a little tight in the morning or dry at night there is something deeply comforting knowing how good it's going to feel to massage your body butter into your skin, and taking a few moments to care for yourself.
And finally, sight. It's such a familiar part of our daily routines that we probably don't give it much thought, but seeing the result is the icing on the cake. You have taken a deep breath, the aroma is all around you, you have enjoyed the softness as you massage it into your skin, then you take a moment to appreciate how nourished your skin looks.
Our body butter is made from naturally derived ingredients; it's not made in a lab but inspired by what grows in a garden or a forest, from a flower or a tree. We wont confuse you with scientific sounding terms or buzz words. We simply take the goodness found in nature and craft it into beautiful products with scents that feel familiar, comforting and welcoming.
Three senses, one simple ritual - smell, touch and sight - turning something as ordinary as moisturising into a moment that feels a little more special.
With natural powerhouses like shea butter and jojoba oil it will help nourish dry or flaky skin and is great on tougher skin spots like elbows and knees. When applied after a morning or evening shower it will help lock in that moisture, providing long lasting results that you will be able to feel hours after applying.
Some choices to help you along the way.
For a luxurious and warming start to your day try our Bee Sweet Vanilla and Orange Body Butter. The rich, indulgent scent a Vanilla is beautifully balanced by the fresh, uplifting notes of citrus, creating a gorgeous scent that feels like a little burst of sunshine to start your day.
To close out a busy day and ease into a more restful night, our Bee Sleepy Lavender and Chamomile Body Butter brings together two botanicals traditionally used to help calm a busy mind and prepare you for a deeper sleep. Makers tip? Massage a little into the soles of your feet, it's one of those simple rituals you really need to try for yourself.
Those are just two of our scents. Each one has been created with your mood, and the way you want to feel, in mind, so jump into our moisturise collection and have a little explore. But don't play it too safe! Try something outside your usual go to - you might just discover a new favourite scent.
Not sure where to start? We currently have a sampler offer where you can try a number of "trying it" sizes to find the one that feels right for you.
