For me, body products are essential. Seriously, how important is a flawless face if your hands, feet and body parts are ashy? Nope. What you need is the best body lotion for dry skin.

The Cantu Skin Therapy Nourishing Shea Butter Body Cream has rich ingredients like coconut oil, cocoa butter and vitamin E, all helping with skin hydration. When I first applied the body lotion, I immediately felt my skin was smoother and softer to the touch. Plus, I didn’t have pesky skin flare-ups throughout the day as a result of dry skin. The best part – no greasy residue afterward.

I also fell in love with the skin and hair-focused body butters (great if you want something a little thicker to really pack in that hydration). If you’re someone who also likes to know what’s going on in your body, these butters are a winner. The formula is a blend of three natural ingredients: 100-percent pure butter, pure shea butter and coconut oil. Many of these ingredients increase skin elasticity and strengthen hair follicles to reduce breakage and hair loss.

A lot of beauty products that contain shea butter feel thick and gunky. To my surprise, these body butters easily melted into my skin without compromising hydration.
