I just used body souffle for the first time. Like lotion only softer and lighter and less greasy. I am always late to the party so I am certain I was the very last person to try it. Ah. ---

What kind? My skin gets dry but I don’t like the greasy, oily feel lotions and body butters give me. ---

You’re not the last person. 🙂 I got some Twisted Peppermint lotion last year - mint and burnt sugar. It smells **amazing!** ---

Huh. Apparently [soufflé](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Souffl%C3%A9) has some other meaning I was not aware of. Or else y’all are _cannibals_! :eek: ---

How long does this stuff last? I have painfully dry hands and lips for the vast majority of the year and nothing I’ve tried has helped yet. $31 is a whole lot to spend but if 6.7 oz goes a long way it’s worth trying. ---

I love peppermint scent. > Thank you **Cat Whisperer** You’re quite welcome - I discovered the lotion from a bottle someone left in the lady’s room at work, and had to go out and get my own bottle after giving it a try. 🙂 ---

Found some at Amazon, from Aveeno. Thanks for the tip! Something else that works for dry skin is light almond oil. Apply it after a shower but before drying off, then pat yourself dry. It’s not oily at all. ---

This stuff is as easy as mashed potatoes to make! And did I mention “cheap”? You can customize it with whatever scents/colors/oils you wish too: > **[DIY Origins Smoothing Souffle Whipped Body Cream - 4 You With Love](http://www.4you-withlove.com/2013/02/diy-origins-smoothing-souffle-whipped.html)** > > I can't believe how addicted I am to making my own lotions and potions. My daughter loves EOS lip balm and thinks my peppermint vanilla lip balm is very similar and my husband loves the "mounds bar" solid lotion bars. Today's project was an expansion... Makes a nice gift!
