Born on the set of "Dancing with the Stars,” this hero product was created by Melanie Mills who ran the makeup department of the show.

Due to the nature of the show which combines the world of Pro-Dancing and glamour, it became apparent that something needed to be done for the dancers' spray-tanned skin before they appeared on HD TV.

Melanie needed a makeup that would hydrate the skin, last all day, not transfer or stain the dancers wardrobes and blend effortlessly with every skin tone and thus Gleam Body Radiance was created.

The result is a revolutionary, all in one makeup, moisturiser and illuminator that you can use for both your face and your body.

Laura Mercier Almond Coconut Milk Soufflé Body Crème

After relaxing in a wonderfully warm bath there is nothing I love more than cocooning my body in a comforting, softening and nourishing body cream.

As a sufferer of dry skin, body cream is an absolute must for me but just because it’s a necessity doesn’t mean it has to be boring. In fact, it can be an exceptionally indulgent and wonderfully enjoyable experience.

At Christmas I was introduced to Laura Mercier’s Almond Coconut Milk Body Butter which is one of the most incredible scented body care products I’ve ever come across.

Inspired by the aroma of a French patisserie, you can easily imagine how delightful this butter smells and better still it did a brilliant job of hydrating my skin, leaving it feeling soft and pampered.

Thick and deeply hydrating, it is perfect for those really dark winter days where your skin is screaming out for some much needed moisture.

As much as I adore butters, there is also room in my skincare regime for lighter lotions and this is where Laura Mercier’s Almond Coconut Milk Soufflé Body Crème comes into play.

This indulgent, silky smooth crème features a lightly whipped texture, making it more like a body lotion as opposed to a thick butter.

Formulated with an infusion of vitamin A,C and E it contains grape seed and rice bran oil to deeply nourish and hydrate, vanilla extract and honey to soothe and sweet almond, hydrolyzed rice proteins and Pro-Vitamin B-5 to provide moisture balance and help protect your skin.

 

Housed within a simplistic yet chic softened, square tub with a silver lid, this soufflé bursts into life the second you remove the lid.

 Allow yourself to be transported to a luxurious Parisian patisserie as you breathe in the indulgent, decadent aroma.

Warm, gourmand notes of almond, coconut milk and vanilla swirl together creating a distinctly sweet, mouth-watering experiencing before jasmine, rosewood, ylang-ylang, tonka, helitrope and musk combine to leave an enchanting and sumptuous fragrance.

Lightweight and soothing, the soufflé glides effortlessly across your skin before being quickly absorbed leaving behind no trace.

Actually that parts not true, it does leave something behind. Its fabulously addictive and elegant scent which lingers on your skin for hours after application.

Easily as hydrating as their opulent body butter but with a silky lightness that would undoubtedly be preferential during the warmer months, it is a truly gorgeous, sensual body care product.

Laura Mercier’s Almond Coconut Milk Soufflé Body Crème is available now from Space NK and costs £53.
