Best Body Moisturizers for Buttery-Soft Skin
Butter skin has been the hottest trend circulating social media as of late and we are 100% for it. ICYDK, butter skin refers to skin that looks visibly soft and smooth with a natural radiance akin to creamy butter. It’s a step away from the glass skin and reflective sheens we’ve been seeing in past years, and is a great direction to head towards if the high-shine look and feel isn’t for you.
Butter skin isn’t just meant for the body, but can also be translated to the body in the form of luxuriously soft, supple and hydrated skin from head to toe. How can you achieve this? Below are 8 formulas that are the creme de la creme of body moisturizers for buttery-soft skin every single day. Including nourishing textures that never feel heavy or greasy, they’re sure to become your go-tos within your daily self-care routine. Without further ado, straight onto the buttery goodness.

You’ll commonly see Rice skincare in the K-beauty market, but few are targeted towards the body. As it turns out, those hydrating, brightening and replenishing properties also target the full body to comfort dry and sensitive skin, as proven by the Mary&May Shea Butter & Rice Bran Body Cream Seoul Edition. With Shea Butter in tow, this cream soothes particularly rough areas such as dull knees and elbows, making the skin clear and luminous. Its buttery texture is thick and luxurious, yet non-greasy and non-sticky for a comfortable experience.
