I’ve always been a HUGE fan of L’Occitane’s super popular Shea Butter products thanks to their super hydrating and nourishing properties and
this year L’Occitane celebrates 25 years of using fair trade shea butter from
women’s co-operative in Burkina Faso.
It seems fitting that to honour and celebrate this occasion
that they have created a limited edition pampering bodycare line.
Say hello to the Whipped Shea Butter range.
Inspired by traditional methods of production in Burka Faso
which would see the women whip the shea butter paste into a mousse like
texture, L’Occitane have created their own whipped collection.
As light as air, the range still retains all the high
concentration of shea butter, with their hand cream (£8) featuring 25% and
their body butter (£18) 10%.
I adore the texture of this whipped butter. It looks like
frothy, gooey marshmallows and is silky and light to touch.
The body butter gently melts from the light mousse into a
super hydrating cream which leaves your skin feeling soft and pampered.
The hand cream is just as fabulous as their original range
but features a star shaped nozzle so when the cream is dispensed, it comes out
looking like decadent Chantilly cream!
Im gutted this is only a limited edition range as i think
its absolutely gorgeous!
L’Occitane’s shea butter limited edition whipped collection
will be available in boutiques later this month.
