Dry 911: L’Occitane Shea Butter Ultra Rich Body Cream
Date posted: June 21, 2012 | By: Dawn Is there anything worse in summer than being hot and miserable with dry, itching skin?
Or running out the door only to discover that your parched, lackluster legs are a little reminiscent of a reptile?
Well, here is your Summer Solution to parched skin.
L’Occitane Shea Butter Ultra Rich Body Cream:
L’Occitane Shea Butter Ultra Rich Body Cream ($42) is just what it says – RICH!
And yet you don’t have to be to have it for yourself.
With ultra-hydrating shea butter (which just smells like summer if you ask me) and the hint- of-a-scent of jasmine, this uber-rich whipped cream both hydrates and is absorbed quickly into the skin.
It also leaves my skin with a subtle matte sheen that makes me look like I’ve never known a day of dry skin in my life. And, honey, I have known many a dry day!
Perfect while getting dressed and running out the door - or, my fave – keeping it on my bedside table and slathering it on after my bedtime bath.
I figure that way, it’s got a good 6-9 hours to do its job!
And, honey, does it do the job!!
I wake up with glowing, nourished, super-soft skin. And it never goes without being noticed! Just ask my neighbor-friend Matty. He just told me how soft my skin was 10 minutes ago!
Try it yourself and let me know your thoughts below!
xoxo,
BF

The healing qualities of Shea butter are due to the presence of several fatty acids and plant sterols, namely oleic, stearic, palmitic and linolenic acids. These oil-soluble components are nonsaponifiable, meaning they do not undergo saponification, or convert to soap, when introduced to an alkali. Shea butter possesses a significantly greater nonsaponifiable fraction than most other nut oils and fats, which lends the substance greater healing potential for the skin..”*^
