Best (safe) body moisturisers?


Hi all

Just wondering what body moisturisers you are using. Have just run out of bio oil and had a quick look at the ones lurking in the back of the cupboard. Quite shocked to find that quite a few (Body Shop, Sanctuary, Boots Botanics) say unsafe in pregnancy.

So do I stick with bio oil (bit pricey) or is there anything else anyone can recommend?

Thanks

Hi!!
I use Bio Oil, which i love. I found it was expensive in the shops so i always use google shopping to find the cheapest place to buy it from. I got a large bottle for about £8.50 and it lasts ages.
