body butter time

wearing the Karen Murrell Cordovan.natural lipstick shade

It was way too hot in summer to even consider slapping on a cream as thick as body butter, but now that the temperatures have dipped feel free to slather it on.

Vaseline’s new Cocoa Butter smoothing body butter is a welcome addition to my daily routine not only because it stops my skin from going white with dryness, but because I’m also a serious chocoholic.

My current addiction is Peanut M&Ms. I eat a packet a day. I just can’t go past them. They taste so divine after coffee (another daily addiction – simply can’t function without a coffee or two). But I’m worrying that any minute soon I’ll regret this profound chocolate snacking when I can no longer do up my jeans. Thankfully that hasn’t happened yet. So this week I’m going to try to NOT eat chocolate every day (I’ve long since given up trying not to drink a wine in the evening). Except for maybe Sunday.

Easter’s coming – which means plenty of chocolate plundering. This year we are spending it with family, an easter egg hunt for the kids and hopefully the last of the summer swims in the pool – so long as the weather holds out.

How are you spending Easter? Noticed your skin getting dryer? Got a favourite body butter – what is it?
