While the weekend is here, it’s finally time to pamper yourself with a nice hot shower followed by an overload of essential oils and body butter that can give you soft and supple skin. Body butters are a luxurious way to pamper your skin by taking things a step further than your usual moisturisers. So just run to your kitchen and get working!
