How to use the extra-melting body balm?

In the coldest weather, the extra-melting balm will help protect and nourish your skin.

Simply take a small amount, melt it between your hands and apply it to your skin.

Oils, shea butter and vegetable glycerine form a perfect combo for soothed skin. Store away from moisture.

Focus on shea oil

Shea butter is undoubtedly a miraculous oil for moisturising skin that's under daily stress.

Extracted from the magical nut of the Shea tree, it is irreplaceable in West African traditions. Shea butter oil is a concentrate of the active ingredients found in shea butter.

It contains essential fatty acids and is rich in vitamins A and E. Particularly recommended for moisturising, nourishing, softening, and toning, it deeply softens and strengthens skin and hair.

Suitable for the whole family, it is ideal for dry skin and hair.
