Arizona Gal Approved!
A lifetime in the Arizona sun and heat has left my 66 year old skin dry and damaged. I took a chance ordering the HelloMellow body butter last year and no longer use traditional lotions. The concentrated ingredients make sense, melt into my skin and smell great! I put little tiny dabs of the body butter all over, and my body heat instantly melts it to perfect spreading consistency. A jar lasts a long time! Just try it! Like me, you will be happy you did!

This is the best body butter that I have ever used. I was using lotion only for a long time but felt that my skin needed more. This is what I needed! I love it!

My skin has never felt so soft!
I am 65 years old and have tried many products. This is by far the best I have used. Highly recommend.

tracy feldstein owner and creator of hellomellow hand making body butter since 2007

i made what i couldn't find.

before natural body care was trendy.

back in 2007, i was working hands-on with clients every day and using body care on their skin and mine.

i wanted something plant-based, nourishing + simple enough to feel good about using that much. i couldn't find it, so i started making it myself.

what surprised me was what happened next.

people started telling me:

  • their dry skin felt softer, smoother + deeply moisturized.
  • they were noticing changes in texture.
  • they kept coming back for more.

that wasn't the reason i created body butter. it was the reason i knew we had made something special.

almost 20 years later, we still make it by hand, in small batches, with the same care i started with in 2007.

i hope you love using it as much as we still love making it.

more about this body butter.

empower takes the cozy expectation of body butter and turns it in a completely different direction. peppermint + eucalyptus + marjoram + rosemary create a cool, green herbal aroma that feels fresh from the moment you start warming the butter between your hands.

and warming it is part of the experience. this is water-free body butter, not lotion in a jar, so the texture starts firm. take a small scoop, let your body heat soften it and then work it into dry heels, knees, elbows, hands, shins or anywhere else you notice your skin wanting richer moisture.

empower is particularly satisfying when you love substantial skin care but don’t necessarily want it paired with a soft or sweet aroma. the formula is rich. the aroma is bold. they work surprisingly well together.

use it alone. use it after a shower. keep it bedside for feet. pair it with the rest of your routine when you want to. the butter does not need perfect conditions to be useful. it just needs to be where you’ll reach for it.

 

body butter questions, answered.

what makes body butter different from lotion?

body butter is water-free + concentrated. instead of starting with added water, the formula starts with avocado, mango + kokum butters and calendula-infused jojoba for rich moisture where skin needs more.

how do i use body butter?

scoop a small amount, warm it between your hands, then massage it into dry skin. start with less than you think you need. a little goes a long way.

why is my body butter firm?

that’s normal. this is a concentrated, water-free butter, so it’s naturally firmer than lotion. warm a little between your hands and it softens with body heat.

where should i use it?

anywhere your skin keeps asking for more. hands, elbows, knees, heels, arms, legs, neck + chest are all good places to start.

can i use body butter every day?

yes. use it whenever your skin needs richer moisture. some people use it daily, while others reach for it mostly on their driest areas.

can i use body butter with body oil?

yes. body oil is your everyday neck-to-toe step on damp skin. body butter comes in afterward wherever you want richer, more concentrated moisture.

will it feel greasy?

it’s richer than lotion by design, so start small. warm a little between your hands and massage it in. using too much at once is usually what makes any concentrated butter feel heavy.

what if i don’t want essential oils?

choose clarity. it’s our fragrance-free body butter with the same rich base formula and no added essential-oil aroma.

what if my butter looks a little grainy?

temperature changes can sometimes change the texture of natural butters. it doesn’t mean the product has gone bad. the butter will still melt as you warm it between your hands.

how the three-step routine works.

  • scrub

    2–3 times a week

    smooth away dry surface buildup.

  • oil

    daily on damp skin

    everyday neck-to-toe moisture.

  • butter

    where skin needs more

    richer, targeted moisture for drier areas.

want the complete routine?

get all three steps together in the essential routine, in the aroma you choose.

Best Body Butter - Amazing Scent Too

I’ve used countless body butters, creams, lotions and oils. This brand is the best. For real. I’m 54 and have struggled with dry skin my whole life. Now that I’m older, it’s awful. When I use this brand, my skin is supple. (When I don’t- it looks like I’ve got alligator skin.) Anyway, if you struggle with your skin, give this brand a try. I like the empower scent- it smells like a day spa.

Pleasant herbal scent

Normally, I like citrusy scents, but Balance body butter has a slightly medicinal scent that makes me think of Italian alpine herbs collected outside and brought into the kitchen. (sorry, I haven't tried empower yet)

Wow Karen, that's an impressive visual! Thank you for the lovely review. It is always fascinating to us how differently people can experience scent. It's part of the fun!

Love this

The body butter is so nourishing for your skin. I am 66 years old and was looking for a natural product for my arms and legs. I started with the body butter and then purchased the oil too. Both products have made my skin silky smooth.

I love it!

This body butter is perfect for my extremely dry skin. I've been using it over the summer but it will be even more beneficial over winter when the air is dryer. I also purchased the Revitalize butter and like that scent just a tiny bit more but that is personal preference. The scents for both butters are exactly as described but not at all overpowering. Thank you for making such a great product and I plan on buying the body oil soon!

Quick results

I am 78 and I use a moisturizer cream after my shower but needed something more. Saw this advertisement and decided to try it . It does everything I need it to do, my skin looks healthy, the only problem that I have was getting enough on my hands in order to apply it to various parts of my body. I have arthritis in my fingers and hands and it’s a little difficult for me but I would purchase again.

Condition of product.

I have emailed you about the condition of the product. I was contacted on the issue of gritty feeling and told this very rarely can happen. It does not change the products effectiveness at all. But as a courtesy they are replacing the product. I love the butter and am happy to know it's still safe to use. Thank you so much for affirming this. Highly recommend the product and the company.

Feels Good

This body butter feels good on the skin for sure. It doesn’t cure crepey skin however. It will temporarily make the creepiness go away until it’s time to reapply. I would order again.
