Who else is ready for winter to be over? Raise your hand. I mean seriously. I’m pretty sure that the Punxsutawney tourism board and the groundhog are in cahoots together. But at least while we still have 6 weeks of winter left, there are some great moisturizers out there to keep our skin hydrated and looking fabulous despite the harsh winter weather. The latest moisturizer in my bathroom is Chanin Richel’s Shea Body Butter in Oatmeal Milk and Honey.
This moisturizer is ultra thick and smells delicious. It spreads easily over your skin and isn’t greasy. While shea butter is the main ingredient, there are some other skin softening ingredients worth noting as well, such as Sweet Almond Oil and Grapeseed Oil (and we all know my love for Grapeseed Oil). So not only will your skin smell heavenly, it will be touchably soft too.
Chanin Richel’s Shea Body Butter is available in a 5oz. jar for $15 at www.shopchaninrichel.com


















I am a sucker for body butters, especially during winter. For a long time, I was HOOKED on The Body Shop Body Butters. Never left my bedside. Recently, I’ve been digging into Carol’s Daughter Mango Body Butter, but I’m looking for other richer options. I haven’t heard of Chanin but now I’m all ears.
