Can you feel your skin starting to flake and crumble away like the outer layers of a bitten-into piece of aloo patty? You’re not alone, dear friend. This weather is making our skin feel drier than the Sahara desert and we’re not having it anymore.
Check out our list of best body butters out there to help get rid of the dryness and smell pretty darn sweet in the process.
If you’ve used {or even heard of} body butters in the past, then The Body Shop is bound to be on the top of your list, just like it is on ours.

PS: Ranges like Frosted Cranberry are limited edition, so you might want to go to your nearest store to check if they have it in stock.
