It works on my dry feet
Review by Alice Jane
-
I use this daily on my what-used-to-be cracked, dry feet. The skin on my heels was so dry that it had built up a thick callous. I tried to sand it off with regular use of a heavy-duty foot buffer but could never get through it. This moisturiser really cures that problem for me. My feet are softer than they've been since I was a kid. I apply it daily or almost daily under socks. If I'm in sandals, I apply it in the evening so I can sleep with it on. Thanks, Paula!

Massage a small, dime-sized amount or more over dry areas as often as needed. Can be used after applying an AHA or BHA product. For daytime use, follow with the appropriate Paula's Choice sunscreen. May be used on the face, including around the eye area. Do not use on eyelids. Beautiful Body Butter may be applied either before or after Super Antioxidant Concentrate.
Beautiful Body Butter advice:Beautiful Body Butter is a versatile product. In addition to soothing dry skin on hands, elbows, knees, and feet, it can also be used as a cuticle cream, massaged into dry areas of the scalp, dabbed on as an eye cream (only if skin is very dry), and used as a soothing balm after shaving or waxing.
Beautiful Body Butter can be used with any Paula's Choice product. Since it is a very emollient cream, we recommend applying it after using lighter weight products such as our BHA products.
Use Beautiful Body Butter immediately after toweling off from your bath or shower. It will seal in the remaining moisture on your skin and help prevent moisture loss for several hours.
Apply a thick layer of Beautiful Body Butter prior to sunscreen application when your skin will be exposed to extreme cold (such as a day spent skiing or ice-skating). Always apply sunscreen at least 20 minutes prior to sun exposure.
Beautiful Body Butter contains several plant oils and emollients whose composition is naturally close to the oil (sebum) our skin produces. Therefore, it is certainly capable of causing or exacerbating breakouts and is not recommended for use over blemish-prone areas.
For use on a dry, flaky scalp, take a bit of Beautiful Body Butter and emulsify between your fingers until the butter texture softens. Massage into dry areas of the scalp for several minutes, and leave on overnight. Shampoo as usual in the morning.
For incredibly soft, ultra-smooth feet overnight, apply a thin layer of any of our Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA) products to clean feet. Follow with a generous application of Beautiful Body Butter, then apply a pair of clean cotton socks to prevent product from coming off on your sheets.
Beautiful Body Butter is gentle enough to use on your baby?s skin, particularly for mild cases of eczema. As a precaution, do check with your pediatrician and get his or her approval before using any new skin-care product on your baby.

How does Beautiful Body Butter differ from the Paula's Choice facial moisturizers?
Beautiful Body Butter is our thickest, richest, most emollient product. It has a very different texture from any of our facial moisturizers for dry to very dry skin. It is meant to provide utmost protection and smoothing of dry to very dry skin on areas such as hands, feet, elbows, and knees.
What is the difference between Beautiful Body Butter and the Lip & Body Treatment Balm?
In a word, texture. Beautiful Body Butter has a soft, creamy, buttery texture while the Lip & Body Treatment Balm has a thicker texture and richer, more lubricating feel. Another difference is that Beautiful Body Butter is a water-based cream whereas the Lip & Body Treatment Balm is plant oil–based and does not contain water, which gives it a more viscous texture and slightly glossy finish. Both products are excellent for addressing the needs of dry to very dry skin.
