Although I try to use as many natural products as possible, they tend to be very expensive. If anyone can direct me to cheaper products, I'd be more than willing to check them out

I think Pure Nuff Stuff (100% natural) is pretty reasonably priced.

Or have a look at Pure Skin Care, they sell lots of different brands.

You might be interested in an offer the Telegraph has on Saturday, for a free Spieza organic moisturiser - it's a facial oil rather than a cream:

I should imagine you'll have to pay postage (it doesn't give any details yet) but it's cheap way of trying out a more expensive brand.

Thanks for the suggestions guys.

Well I used the baby bottom butter last night, and it's wonderful. It took a while to get used to, as I thought it'd be more fluid than it is (akin to body shop butter), and this is more waxy in texture, but it's excellent. A smallish pot, but you really don't need much at all, and I have lovely, lightly scented skin. Kudos to whoever found out about it!

I've been using Waitrose's Baby Bottom Butter for about a month now - it's great stuff and is brilliant on elbow skin (my DH's elbow's have never been so soft!)

I normally get very dry skin on my face at this time of year, and so far using the BBB, there's no sign of it. Couldn't use it during the day though, as it's very greasy, but great as a night cream and lip balm rolled into one!
