I love the winter for it’s cooler temperatures, but my skin- not so much. I walk around often scratching my arms and I’ve noticed my toddler doing the same, all because the dry weather sucks moisture from the skin and leaves us with the itchies! Regular lotions don’t seem to do the trick for long, so that’s why a thicker cream like body butter can help keep the skin feeling hydrated. We found an amazing recipe from one of our favorite YouTube channels, What’s Up Moms, and we think you’re going to love it!

I need to get my hands on some shea butter stat, so I can make this recipe for myself! The body butter looks SO amazing and I love how fluffy it is! Have you made your own body products before? How did they turn out, and do you like them better than store brands? Let us know in the comments below!
