L'Occitane Almond Milk Concentrate Body Cream 200ml

Description

L’Occitane Almond Milk Concentrate is a 200 ml jar of nourishing body cream with almond oil. It moisturises and softens the skin and leaves it smoother. L’Occitane calls it a smoothing and firming treatment for the whole body.

What is Almond Milk Concentrate?

This is the best-known body cream in L’Occitane’s almond range, and its French name is Concentré de Lait. The formula is built around almonds from Provence, the signature ingredient of the range. 95% of its ingredients are of natural origin, and L’Occitane describes the cream as vegan. It is made in Manosque, France.

The cream comes in a heavy glass jar with AMANDE embossed on the side and a silver screw lid.

What it does for your skin

The key ingredient is sweet almond oil. It is rich in omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids and helps nourish and soften the skin. L’Occitane adds walnut seed and almond extracts, which give the skin a firmer feel. The cream also contains almond protein and glycerin. The result is skin that feels soothed and silky soft, with a subtle sheen. With daily use, your skin feels smoother, softer and firmer.

Who it is for

L’Occitane recommends Almond Milk Concentrate especially for dry and sensitive skin. It suits anyone who wants rich care after the shower. It is also a good choice when you want to smooth and firm areas, as L’Occitane calls it a smoothing and firming treatment. You can browse more body creams in our shop.

The almond as inspiration

L’Occitane’s almond range began with the almond itself. This fruit has a velvety skin and a tender heart, and it grows firmer with time. The brand built its almond body care range around that quality. Almond Milk Concentrate is the range’s nourishing body cream. The products pair well, for example a shower oil, a scrub and this cream, so your whole routine shares the same soft almond scent.

How to use

1. Use the cream morning and evening on clean skin, for example after a shower.
2. Take a small amount and warm it between your palms for a moment.
3. Massage it into the skin with circular movements, always working upwards.
4. Cover the whole body, paying extra attention to drier areas.

When the jar is empty, L’Occitane offers a dedicated refill pack. You can then refill the same glass jar and keep using it.

Texture and scent

In the jar, Almond Milk Concentrate is thick and creamy, yet it turns light once applied. It melts into the skin and wraps it in moisture. Your skin is left soft with a light sheen. The scent recalls fresh almonds and stays soft, so it does not compete with your perfume. The 200 ml jar is generous and lasts a long time, because a small amount is enough each time.

Frequently asked questions

How often should I use the cream?

L’Occitane recommends applying it to the whole body morning and evening. The easiest moment is right after a shower, when your skin is clean.

What does “Concentrate” mean in the name?

Concentrate is the name of this cream in L’Occitane’s almond range (Concentré de Lait in French). Its texture is denser and more nourishing than a light body lotion.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes. L’Occitane describes Almond Milk Concentrate as suitable for dry and sensitive skin in particular.

What can I use on very dry spots such as elbows?

For the driest areas, the almond body balm from the same range is a good match. Its texture is even richer, with almond oil and almond butter.
