Spirit of Woman Nourishing Body Cream

Springfields Spirit of Woman Nourishing Body Cream is a silky, readily absorbed everyday moisturiser built around jojoba seed oil, a plant wax whose structure is close to the skin's own surface oils. It sinks in rather than sitting on top, which makes it easy to use straight out of the shower. The scent is the brand's Spirit of Woman essential oil blend of ylang ylang, rose geranium, rosewood, Peru balsam, palmarosa and rose, so the fragrance is a soft, warm floral rather than a synthetic perfume. Free from parabens, petrochemicals, artificial colours and artificial fragrances, with no animal ingredients and no animal testing. Made in Australia. It comes as the 200g jar.
