I have NOT been taking care of my skin on my legs and arms in the winter. I used to use Jerkins or Suave lotions, but now that I'm in BeautiControl, I want to use BC but I don't know what's a really good one to use. I don't want one just b/c it smells good; I'd RATHER have one that really moisturizes the skin and doesn't have a scent, but if it does that's ok.

Spa sugar?
Brown Sugar?
Margarita?
Herbal Serenity?

I've considered using the extreme repair hand therapy b/c I love it so much for my hands. What do you use?

I love them all and take turns. But my favorite is the sugar body butter. It's thicker and goes on so nice, especially right before bed, I wake up and my skin feels silky.

I'm still pretty new to BC so I haven't tried all the lotions yet. But I HAVE used the Extreme Repair Hand Therapy on my legs because my legs get wicked dry in the winter. I think it works just as well there as on my hands! But a little goes a long way.

Herbal Serenity and Sugar body butter are my favorite. I haven't tried Brown Sugar nor Margarita yet.

I use alot of BC's products myself. For the lotions or for hydration/moisturizing, I think I like either Margarita Body Lotion or the Sugar Body Butter/Sugar Body Lotionthe best. It doesn't take much to do the trick either. If you have problems with your heels- try the Show ofHands Instant Manicure, followed by the Extreme Repair lotion. Just don't step into the shower when using it!!! The oils make it too slippery to be safe in the shower. Use it on your heels and around your toe area just as you would if you were using it on your hands. Remarkable!!! There is also the Olive Butter Body Balm. It contains a moisturizer made from olives. I used some on my hands and it felt really good and not greasy at all but it has a slight smell. Not bad- especially if you were to use it at home when you were just relaxing or not planning to go anywhere because it will definitely moisturize your skin. The smell is a little different is all.


But since you mentioned just your arms and legs then try Margaritaor the Sugar Body Butter/Sugar Body Lotion. I do the hand massages at my spas with the Sugar Body Butter and they love it. It soaks in leaving your skin as smooth as a baby's! Personally, I thought the Brown Sugar Lotion was a bit greasy and not as silky-feeling as the Sugar Lotion or Sugar Body Butter.(I love the cologne though!)


Hope youfind something that will work for you! Have a great evening.

I like the body butters, Sugar or the Olive. But did you know that we do have an Extreme Repair for the body? It's on the same page with the Extreme Repair for the hands.

I love the Therma Del Sol Blackberry Vanilla Body Creme, not only because it smells awesome, but also because it is very moisturizing and my skin feels wonderful when I use it. I also highly recommend the Therma Del Sol Olive Butter Body Balm. It is like a miracle cream. It does wonders for itchy winter skin.I useiton my hands and body. I have pretty much used all the the lotions, and they all work well for me. I also love the margarita line.

Deb,


I second Amy's suggestion of the Extreme Repair for the Face & Body since it doesn't have a fragrance!


Ladies,


This was the firstwinter my elbows ever cracked, so I have been using Rich Sea Salve for Feet on them. Wonderful! It's uber-thick! Little goes a long way. I only had to use it a couple times and my elbows have returned to normal.

I'm not in BC, but I did get a sample of the Brown Sugar lotion, I love it!! It smells good and has very tiny shimmer sparkles, it makes my legs look really good.

I love Brown Sugar and it has replaced Sugar for me! Or course, the Brown Sugar Cologne is my favorite as well!


Extreme repair is my favorite hand cream. My husband also uses it on his rough hands.
