Nourish London has just released two new body creams perfect for some post-shower pampering. I for one am terrible when it comes to neglecting the skin on my body and just focusing on my face, so I very much welcomed the chance to try one of the new creams. I have the Geranium and Jasmine Contouring Body Cream but there is also a Bergamot and Cardamom Smoothing Body Cream available. Both retail for £17 and come in fully recyclable glass jars with aluminium lids.
The 'contouring' action of the Body Cream comes from the addition of antioxidant Brown Algae extract, which is renowned in the skin care world for its firming properties. Brown Algae works to prevent the degradation of skin elasticity, so it’s a great ingredient for keeping things supple.
The Bergamot & Cardamom smoothing variation of the body
cream contains cooling and soothing Cucumber extract, calming Aloe and Borage
and uplifting Bergamot and Geranium essential oils. I feel like the Geranium
& Jasmine cream is ideal for winding down at the end of the day/ at night,
while the Bergamot & Cardamom body cream would be perfect for kickstarting
the senses in the morning.
This cream is so thick and luxurious that you need
to use a lot less than you might think - if you scoop out too much it's going
to take a while to rub it in as well. It leaves skin feeling soft and
hydrated, with the delicate, soothing scent of Jasmine and Geranium.
The perfect treat for after a wash and before bed. Speaking of washing, there
is a matching Geranium & Jasmine Shower Gel too, so you could use that
first for a really pampering spa-like experience.
Nourish London Geranium & Jasmine Contouring Body Cream (100ml) and Bergamot & Cardamom Smoothing Body Cream (100ml) are £17 at Nourish London. As a side note I've noticed you can also buy some Nourish products at Sephora.
