🌿 The Ultimate Guide to Body Butters: Benefits, Ingredients, and How to Choose Yours
Whether you’re fighting dry skin, chasing that dewy glow, or simply want to feel soft, luxurious, and loved in your own skin — body butter is your glow-up secret.
But not all body butters are created equal.
At Neeno Body Butter, we craft each jar with intention, using rich, natural ingredients that pamper your skin and uplift your senses. In this guide, I’m breaking down what makes body butter so powerful, what ingredients actually matter, and how to choose the perfect one for you.
✨ What Is Body Butter, Really?
Body butter is a thick, nourishing moisturizer made with natural butters and oils — like shea, kokum, mango, and more. It’s richer than lotion and provides deep, long-lasting hydration.
Unlike water-based lotions that evaporate quickly, body butters lock in moisture, soften rough patches, and protect your skin barrier — especially during harsh weather or dry seasons.
- Dry or flaky skin
- Sensitive skin types
- Daily glow maintenance
- Gifting self-care with love
🌱 Star Ingredients That Make All the Difference
The magic is in the mix — here are the ingredients you’ll often find in our body butters, and why we use them:
🧈 Shea Butter
Deeply moisturizing and packed with vitamins A and E. It soothes irritation, improves elasticity, and gives your skin that soft, cushiony feel.
🌸 Kokum Butter
A non-comedogenic powerhouse. This lightweight, fast-absorbing butter delivers rich hydration without clogging pores — ideal for sensitive and acne-prone skin. Leaves a velvety, non-greasy finish your skin will love.
🥭 Mango Butter
Rich in antioxidants and fatty acids, mango butter helps smooth skin and protect against environmental stress. It’s lighter than shea and excellent for daily use.
🌾 Jojoba Oil, Grapeseed Oil, and Sea Buckthorn
These skin-loving oils mimic your skin’s natural sebum, delivering hydration and glow without the heaviness. Sea buckthorn, in particular, helps soothe and repair irritated or aging skin.
