L’Occitane Shea Butter Verbena Hand and Body Lotion Review

 

A lightweight, deeply conditioning hand and body lotion from L’Occitane, Shea Butter Verbena Hand & Body Lotion is crafted to help counterbalance the naturally drying effects of hard water. With a formula infused with 5% shea butter, skin is left soft, supple and completely comfortable. I used this in the colder months to battle dry patches and balance my skin’s natural hydration levels. I was so impressed by its power! The shea butter in this envelops your skin in absolute hydration without feeling tacky or slippery.

 

The Most Important Thing About This Shea Butter Verbena Hand & Body Lotion Is…

The dual-purpose nature of this lotion. This can be left in the bathroom and used on both your hands or body to boost hydration and tackle those irritating dry patches.

 

What Skin Type Is It For?

All skin types, I have sensitive skin and this has caused no reactions.

Corinne with L'Occitane Shea Butter Verbena Hand Lotion for review

Hero Ingredients:

This dual-purpose lotion is made from 5% shea butter made in Burkina Faso. Shea butter is known to be one of the most moisturizing natural ingredients ever, it can comfort and protect dry and sensitive skin. L’Occitane’s Shea butter range is made with organic fair trade Shea butter, so you can confident that there are no nasty chemicals to irritate sensitive skin!

 

What Does It Feel Like?

The texture is lightweight and absorbs into the skin super quickly, leaving your skin comfortable and moisturised and not greasy. It’s the perfect consistency for a body lotion due to the deeply nourishing properties of the shea butter, but would work equally as well as a hand cream because of how fast it sinks into and hydrates skin without making it sticky or slippery.

 

What Does It Smell Like?

Like fresh, zingy lemon sherbets. The scent is tantalisingly zesty and awakening, giving you an extra pep in your step on sleepy mornings.

 

How Do You Use The Product?

Massage over the body ideally after showering or bathing, or use to moisturise hands after washing.

 

What’s Special About The Design?

The square shaped pump bottle is ideal for applying this lotion without having to squeeze it out of a tube. It means a measured amount comes out at one time and you could even use your elbow to push the pump!

 

Values?

L’Occitane are a brand that are committed to producing their products in the most ethical way possible, that’s why they have created a sustainable, fair-trade supply chain with the women of Burkina Faso to ensure the finest quality shea butter, while supporting them financially.
