LIMITED EDITION - Radiance Cream | shimmering body cream

In plain words: aloe, sunflower oil, balsam fir extract, glycerin, mint, fir and pine essential oils, benzoin, vitamin E and a veil of glitter. There’s also an emulsifier to make the cream, xanthan gum for stability and gentle preservatives, so you don’t end up with a bacteria party in your bottle. Full list below 👇

Full list (INCI): Aloe barbadensis juice, Helianthus annuus, Abies balsamea extract, Glycerin, Arachidyl glucoside, Arachidyl alcohol, Behenyl alcohol, Benzyl alcohol*, Salicylic acid, Sorbic acid, Tocopherol, Mentha arvensis, Fluorphlogopite, CI77891, CI77491, CI77861, Xanthan gum, Abies sibirica, Pinus sylvestris, Styrax benzoin, Alpha-Pinene*, Alpha-Terpineol*, Benzyl benzoate*, Beta-Caryophyllene*, Beta-Pinene*, Limonene*, Menthol*, Vanillin*.

* Occurs naturally in essential oils.

It’s fluorphlogopite, a synthetic mica made in a lab rather than extracted from a mine. It’s colored with mineral pigments (CI 77891, CI 77491 and CI 77861 in the list). The dosage is calibrated so you can see it while keeping it delicate and easy to wear every day.

It smells like the forest and candy canes. At first, it really is candy cane, then very quickly it turns into something soft and enveloping, with a fresh undertone.

The scent comes only from mint, fir and pine essential oils and benzoin: there is no synthetic fragrance. Essential oils are very volatile, so the scent will evolve and gradually fade.

It depends on what you put behind the word “natural,” so here’s the honest picture. The base comes mostly from plants (aloe, sunflower oil, balsam fir extract, essential oils, benzoin) and the scent comes only from essential oils.

But the cream also contains ingredients that don’t come straight from a plant: the glitter, made in a lab (see the glitter question), and texture and preservation ingredients, like xanthan gum, salicylic acid and sorbic acid. The whole list is above, so you can judge for yourself.

And organic? We use a mix of organic and non-organic ingredients. An ingredient that isn’t organic can be of very high quality: we make sure of the quality and purity of everything we use, and we only work with suppliers we trust. This flexibility lets us offer you quality products that are affordable and accessible.

We can’t answer for you, but here’s what you need to know. The cream contains essential oils (mint, fir, pine) and benzoin. In the list, the ingredients followed by an asterisk (like limonene, benzyl benzoate and vanillin) occur naturally in these essential oils.

If you have a known allergy to essential oils, conifers or any ingredient on the list, check it carefully before ordering, and talk to a healthcare professional if in doubt.
