How to Layer Body Butter in Your Skincare Routine | Yaye's Expert Guide
Getting the most from your body butter comes down to one thing — timing. Whether you're building a morning glow routine or a nourishing night ritual, knowing when and how to apply Yaye's native botanical body butters makes all the difference. In this guide we'll walk you through the ideal skincare layering sequence, and show you exactly how Yaye's Lemongrass & Lime, Berrigan and White Cypress & Lily body butters fit into your daily routine for maximum hydration and lasting softness.
Why Body Butter Is the Most Important Step in Your Skincare Routine
Body butter is one of the most effective ways to lock in moisture and protect your skin's natural barrier. Unlike lighter lotions, Yaye's body butters are rich, deeply nourishing and powered by native Australian botanicals — including Berrigan, White Cypress and Silky Lemongrass — traditionally used in Aboriginal bush medicine to soothe, protect and restore dry skin.
The Role of Body Butter
Yaye's body butters do more than moisturise — they restore. Rich in native Australian botanicals, each formula locks in moisture, rebuilds the skin's natural barrier and prevents water loss throughout the day. For dry or sensitive skin, applying body butter as the final step in your routine seals in all the hydration from previous products, leaving skin soft, supple and deeply nourished.
When Should You Apply Body Butter?
For maximum results, apply Yaye body butter as the last step in your skincare routine — after cleansing, toning and any serums or treatments. This allows the rich botanical formula to lock in everything underneath while creating a protective moisture barrier on top.
For best results apply to slightly damp skin immediately after showering — your skin will absorb the butter more effectively and stay hydrated.
