@ThinkingOutLoud Have you tried Vanicream? It is free of dyes, fragrance and parabens and is available at most stores. Hope this helps. Have a peaceful day.

You can't go wrong with CeraVe lotions.  There are different formulations.  A lot of derms recommend this brand.

I've been using CeraVe for some time now.  I buy the set of 3 at Costco.  Great product.  Good price (goes on sale a lot too).

Many Vanicream and CeraVe products contain petro. They are not 'clean'. 

These are 'clean' body lotion brands that you can buy in stores:

 

Honest

Alaffia

Waleda

Babo

Alba Botanica

Imho there's nothing bad about using products containing petro. Petrolatum is simply the solid form of mineral oil. I use them myself. I put that list up b/c the OP is looking for 'clean' lotion.

'Clean beauty' is not a standard official industry category. It's defined by the individual manufacturers by what they consider to be 'clean' ingredients used in their products. Lists of 'clean' ingredients will vary between manufacturers. 'Pick your poison' as some say.

I like Hempz and Gold Bond body lotions. You can often find the bottles of Hempz discounted at TJMaxx and Marshalls.

I use Alba Botanica unscented lotions and creams.  I order them from Vitacost.

 

Alba Botanica Daily Moisturizing Lotion

32 ounces, $14.59

 

Various formulas and scents, all similarly priced.

 

This is something new from Alba that I recently ordered:

 

Alba Botanica Moisturizing Cream Normal to Dry Skin

 

I really like this one ($11.49).  And Vitacost has a 15% off code today...

You can find quality body creams that are of a more natural ingredient deck, no petro, no mineral oil, no dyes and no parabens at many stores, even groceries, you just have to check ingredient lists, and most are not overpriced either.
