“pamper your skin with this indulgent body moisturizer crafted with organic skin-perfecting oils for intense moisture and a glistening youthful glow.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: simmondsia chinensis seed oil, sesamum indicum seed oil.
