I thought today in honour of the super healthy Almond I would share
this post again with you.
Yesterday February 16th was World Almond Day, yes the humble almond
has its own special day...
The review below was written in 2012 and in my opinion nothing has changed
and it still remains on my "must have" list, so if you haven't yet tried this or
any of the Almond products from L'Occitane, then you really are missing out.
~~~~~~
I love Almonds not only to eat, but also to apply to my face and body.
Almond is well-know for its ability to nourish the skin and in my opinion
L'OCCITANE
have best harnessed the exceptional beautifying power of almond from
the south of France and integrated it in body treatments and toiletries
that are both deliciously tempting and wonderfully effective.
Made with Almonds sourced from Haute Provence, the Almond range,
includes delicious shower oil, mouth watering body creams, soaps
and hand creams.
The Almond Shower Oil is L'Occitane's second "Best Selling"
product worldwide after their wonderful Award Winning Shea Hand Cream.
This Oil is unique and has to be experienced in order
to appreciate and understand fully the pleasure and the benefits derived
from using this cleansing and soothing oil.
Don't be put off by the fact it's an oil, as I know, it conjures up visions
of an oily residue being left on the skin after your daily shower...
Well it doesn't!
Even the application of the product is special in so many ways.
Firstly the aroma of Almonds is great, then once you massage the oil onto a wet skin the oil magically turns into a white creamy texture!
You then cleanse the body and rinse under the shower as normal and your
skin is left beautifully cleansed,
(whilst respecting the Hydrolipidic film),
moisturised and softened,
(thanks to all the magical powers of the Almond oils)
and yet leaves no oily residue behind on the skin.
Can it get any better?
Well yes it can & it does, as they also recommend that you shave your legs
in the shower using the Shower Oil..
How easy is that, its a great multi- tasking product.
Oh! I nearly forgot the product is unisex, so you can share it with your man.
This product comes in a plastic container, which is safer in the shower and it
comes in a variety of sizes!
