Breeze Light Cream

Description

Breeze Light Cream is my handmade face and body cream for normal to combination skin, with cooling peppermint water, apricot kernel oil and shea butter, in a fresh, uplifting citrus and mint blend of lemongrass, may chang, peppermint and spearmint. Suitable during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Breeze has a gentle cooling feel from peppermint water, which makes it especially lovely on tired feet or after a day in the sun. Fresh, zingy and wide awake.

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
• you love a cooling, fresh citrus and mint feel
• you're pregnant or breastfeeding and want a scented cream that's suitable
• 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 Flora (all skin types, suitable in pregnancy). Want the matching deodorant? Try Breeze Deo Cream. Still deciding? Start with the 10g trial tin.

Ingredients and what they do

• Peppermint floral water - a fresh, gently cooling base in place of some of the water
• Apricot kernel oil - light and silky, rich in vitamins
• Golden jojoba oil - very close to skin's own oils, so it absorbs easily
• Shea butter - soothing and nourishing
• Lemongrass, spearmint, may chang and peppermint essential oils - the fresh Breeze 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), Mentha Piperita (peppermint) Floral Water, Prunus Armeniaca (apricot) Kernel Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (jojoba) Seed Oil, Butyrospermum Parkii (shea) Butter, Cetearyl Olivate, Sorbitan Olivate, Cetyl Alcohol, glycerin, Tocopherol (vitamin E), Cymbopogon Flexuosus (Lemongrass) Oil, Mentha Viridis (Spearmint) Leaf Oil, Litsea Cubeba (May Chang) Fruit Oil, Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) 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 normal to combination skin
• 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.
