Masala Chai Spice & Vanilla Body Lotion

Three hydration-boosting humectants plus snow mushroom extract draw moisture to the skin with this silky, lightweight body lotion.

Is your skin thirsty? Dry, flaky or itchy skin is often caused by low levels of hydration in the skin. This triple humectant formula features glycerine, propanediol and sodium lactate, natural ingredients that pull moisture from the air towards the surface the skin.

Snow mushroom extract, sometimes compared to Hyaluronic Acid for its water binding properties, easily penetrates the skin's layers, forming a protective film of moisture that transforms rough and itchy skin into plump, soft skin. Apricot kernel oil and mango seed butter lock in moisture, soften and improve the skin's radiance.

This balanced formula is powerful enough to deeply hydrate and protect skin in dry winter conditions and provide feather-light moisturizing in hot humid summers.

The Benefits
Snow Mushrooms (Tremella Mushroom) hold up to 500 times their weight in water and penetrate the skin more effectively than hyaluronic acid, providing deeper hydration and improved moisture retention.

Propanediol is a biodegradable, corn sugar-derived alternative to petroleum-based Glycols to help encourage moisture retention.

Glycerine is viscous liquid (ours is extracted from palm or coconut oil) which hydrates the outer layer of the skin and accelerates wound-healing processes.

Sodium Lactate is a multi-faceted ingredient; a highly effective skin-hydrator and reported to improve the moisture content of the skin by up to 84%. Another function of sodium lactate is that it helps remove dead skin cells from the surface of the skin.

Sunflower Seed Oil effective at improving skin hydration and maintaining the integrity of the skin’s outer layer.

Directions
Can be used when desired to soften and moisturize the skin. For best results, apply to damp skin after the bath or shower to lock in moisture.

For extremely dry or flaky skin, gently exfoliate with a mitt or loofah soap to remove dead skin cells before applying body lotion. Afterwards, apply a small amount of whipped body butter in problem areas to lock in moisture and deeply moisturize.
