Flora Light Cream

Description

Flora Light Cream is my handmade face and body cream for all skin types, especially normal to combination, with geranium water, camellia oil and shea butter, in an uplifting floral citrus blend of rose geranium, pink grapefruit, mandarin and eucalyptus. Suitable during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Flora is bright and pretty - rose-like geranium lifted with zesty grapefruit and mandarin. It's the easy all-rounder in my light cream range.

It's whipped and light, absorbs quickly, and isn't sticky or greasy - light enough for your face under make-up, nourishing enough for hands, legs and feet.

Made for you if...

• your skin is normal to combination, or you're not sure of your skin type
• you're pregnant or breastfeeding and want a scented cream that's suitable
• you love a fresh floral scent with a citrus lift
• you want one cream for face, body, hands and feet
• you don't like the feel of heavy, greasy creams

Not quite you? Try Cloud (unscented, for sensitive or very dry skin), Lotus (dry or tight skin) or Fauna (combination skin that gets oily). Want the matching deodorant? Try Flora Deo Cream. Still deciding? Start with the 10g trial tin.

Ingredients and what they do

• Geranium floral water - a fresh, floral base in place of some of the water
• Camellia oil - light and silky, it absorbs easily
• Golden jojoba oil - very close to skin's own oils
• Shea butter - soothing and nourishing
• Rose geranium, pink grapefruit, mandarin and eucalyptus essential oils - the fresh Flora scent

Because it's water based, it contains a gentle preservative to keep it safe to use. Like every other ingredient, it's listed below - nothing hidden.

Full ingredients (INCI): Aqua (water), Pelargonium Graveolens (geranium) Floral Water, Camellia Oleifera (camellia) Seed Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (jojoba) Seed Oil, Butyrospermum Parkii (shea) Butter, Cetearyl Olivate, Sorbitan Olivate, Cetyl Alcohol, glycerin, Tocopherol (vitamin E), Pelargonium Graveolens (geranium) Flower Oil, Citrus Paradisi (grapefruit) Peel Oil, Eucalyptus Globulus (eucalyptus) Oil, Citrus Nobilis (mandarin orange) Peel Oil, Benzyl Alcohol, Salicylic Acid, Sorbic Acid, Citric Acid, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate

How to use

1. Scoop a small amount out of the tin with clean, dry fingers.
2. Warm it between your fingertips and smooth it over your face and neck.
3. Take a moment - cover your face with your hands, breathe in, breathe out.
4. Use what's left on hands, cuticles, elbows, legs or feet - anywhere that feels dry.

Use it morning and night. It sits nicely under make-up.

How long does a tin last? A 50g tin used just on your face lasts around 1-2 months. Used all over it goes faster, so the 150g tin is the one for all-over use and families.

Once opened: safe to use for 12 months, and at its freshest within 3-6 months. Store somewhere cool, out of direct sunlight.

Suitability

• Made for all skin types, especially normal to combination
• Suitable to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding
• Scented with pure essential oils - no synthetic fragrance

As with any new skincare, patch test first and avoid broken skin.
