NO DO NOT! I'm 99.9% sure the body butter is no non-comedogenic so it will clog your pores BAD. Also the lovely fragrances are not healthy for the skin on your face due to the fact that the skin on your face is much thinner than the rest of your body. Also the previous answer about the infusing natural oils into your moisturizer, NOT a good idea b/c there is always the chance that it could have an adverse reaction and that would not be pretty. If your looking for a good moisturizer i recommend the Green Tea Moisturizer from Proactiv Solution! It does wonders it won't leave your skin feeling oily and it won't shine through out the day... I hope i was some help

I work at Bath and Body Works and I wouldn't recommend it. The body butters have shea butter in it which is an extra intense moisturizer that may clog your pores. Also, the fragrances are based on a chemical formula that includes alcohal, which may irritate your skin. You need to use a moisturizer that is "non-comedogenic" or "non-acneogenic."
Bath and Body Works has a Wexler line that is specially formulated for targeting and treating different problem areas of the face (aging, dryness, lines, spots, wrinkles, sun exposure, etc.) Patricia Wexler is a very successful dermatologist to the stars based out of New York. There is a actually a whole new product line being introduced by her that helps treat these different problems, but is also aware of skin sensitivities and acne. The line is a little bit pricey, but there is definitely a reason why the celebs go to her--the stuff works!

I'm an esthetician and if you were my client I would advise you not to do so. Body butter is meant for the body and not for the face. This will clog your pores and cause breakouts, not to mention the other ingredients in the product that would irritate you delicate facial skin. I do use body butters and love them but I do not use them on my face, I have specific products that I use.

you could but it might be a little thick for your face and could clog pores which may cause breakouts. If you don't have sensitive skin then you could apply the body butter from B&B works, but I would reccomend buying a face cream instead.

I wouldn't if you have sensitive skin or even if you don't...It may be tooooo heavy for your face and cause a breakout..And who needs that? If you like the scents U listed, try buying pure oils and infusing them into your regular facial moisturizer.

I wouldn't try it unless it says on it that it can be applied to your face. It may cause rashes or breakouts, since the skin on your face is usually more sensitive.

I think it would be too thick for your face and it may clog your pores and cause breakouts. You should by facial moisturizers to put on your face.

Body lotion is not the best thing for your face, it can clog pores and cause breakouts.

you should never put anything on your face unless it says non-comodegenic on it. that means it doesn't clog pores. and usually nothing is unless it belongs on your face. and i wouldn't put anything that isn't designed for a face on my face unless my dermatologist told me to, it might end up giving me crazy acne or something like that.
