"Liv Delano" Body Soufflé Cream, 250 g

What it is

LIV DELANO body cream soufflé is a rich body moisturiser with a light, whipped texture that spreads easily and leaves the skin feeling soft rather than greasy. People usually choose this kind of body cream when they want more than a basic lotion: a fuller texture for skin that feels dry, tight after washing, or rough in areas such as elbows, knees and shins.

Key components

Its formula combines emollients and water-binding ingredients that work in different ways:

• Soybean oil and rice bran oil help reduce moisture loss by forming a softening lipid layer on the surface.
• Sorbitol and sodium hyaluronate attract water, helping the skin hold on to hydration so it feels smoother and more supple.
• Dimethicone adds slip and helps reduce the feeling of dryness by creating a light protective veil without a heavy finish.

What makes this composition more interesting is the blend of marine and plant extracts:

• Sea salt, algae, bladderwrack, laminaria and sargassum are commonly used in body cosmetics for their remineralising and skin-conditioning role.
• Aloe, calendula, licorice and plantain are known for their soothing effect.
• Sea buckthorn fruit extract and essential fatty acids from linoleic and linolenic acid help maintain the skin barrier.
• Peppermint oil may add a light fresh sensation, and the soufflé texture makes the product pleasant to massage into the body after a shower or whenever skin feels dull and dehydrated.

When people choose it

This body cream suits those who prefer a more cocooning texture in cooler weather, as well as anyone who wants one jar for broad body application instead of a thin milk or gel.

Important notes

Because it contains fragrance, peppermint oil and preservative components that may not suit very reactive skin, it is wise to patch test first if you are prone to sensitivity or apply it cautiously after shaving.
