Less Expensive Replacement for JM hand lotion and body butter

Hi, I like Josie's unscented whipped hand lotion and whipped body butter. Has anyone found and unscented less expensive replacement for these?

I don't think you can beat Avon's Moisture Therapy hand cream. I buy a bunch when they're on sale and find no other hand lotion softens and moisturizes my hands like this product. It's the only Avon product I've ever bought but I swear by it.

I use plain coconut oil. The stuff lasts a very long time and moisturizes as well as JM's does.

Add a few drops of her pure argan oil to any other hand cream. I'm always a fan of l'occitaine. The argan oil will last you a long time if your only using a few drops.

I find that argan oil alone doesn't do much for my hands. It works better on my body, but doesn't provide nearly enough moisture for my hands. I do like to add a few drops of argan oil to drugstore lotions and I think that makes the moisture last longer. A few drops of agran oil amps up whatever lotion I use and you're so right - it lasts a long time when you only use a few drops.

Aveeno makes great body creams, if you want something like a body butter from a tub. Aveeno Positively Nourishing Comforting Whipped Souffle and Aveeno Skin Relief Moisture Repair Cream are both great. The Body Shop has a big collection of body butters and they're often on sale when you buy several.

I'm for pure coconut oil, too. (It comes in solid and warms up/liquifies in your hands.) I buy mine at Trader Joe's. Store in a cool place to maintain the solid consistency.

I like the shea butter creams at Bath and Body works that are fragrance free and Shea Moisture's body butters.
