L'Occitane Almond Milk Veil Body Lotion 240ml

Description

L’Occitane Almond Milk Veil is a light body lotion with almond oil and almond milk in a 240 ml pump bottle. It moisturises the skin, smooths it and helps firm it. L’Occitane says it suits all skin types.

What is Almond Milk Veil?

Almond Milk Veil is the light body care product in L’Occitane’s almond range, and its French name is Voile de Lait, or milk veil. The name sums up how it feels: the milk covers your skin with a thin, soft veil. It is enriched with sweet almond oil from Provence and the Mediterranean Basin and with almond milk. The formula also contains almond protein, shea butter and glycerin. It is made in Manosque, France.

The white bottle has AMANDE embossed on it and a handy pump. The pump makes it easy to take the right amount, even with damp hands after a shower. The range takes its inspiration from the almond itself, a velvety fruit that grows firmer with time.

What it does for your skin

L’Occitane describes Almond Milk Veil as helping to moisturise, smooth and firm the skin. Sweet almond oil nourishes and softens, while almond milk takes care of the skin’s moisture. Glycerin helps hold that moisture in, and shea butter adds extra softness. The result is smooth, even skin that feels cared for all day. Thanks to the light texture, there is no heavy feel, so the lotion is a pleasure to use every day.

Who it is for

Almond Milk Veil suits all skin types. It is a good choice if you prefer a light body lotion to a thick cream. It is especially popular with those who like a light texture. The light texture works in warm summer weather and in winter, when skin needs daily moisture. You can browse more body lotions and creams in our shop.

How to use

1. Use the lotion in the morning and/or evening, ideally straight after a shower.
2. Press the pump and take a small amount into your palm.
3. Massage it over the whole body until it has absorbed.
4. Use it every day to keep your skin soft and smooth.

Once opened, the lotion is best used within 12 months. The pump keeps the bottle clean and the lotion protected.

Texture and scent

Almond Milk Veil is fluid and light, almost like milk. It spreads quickly and covers the skin with a thin, velvety layer. According to L’Occitane, it leaves a delicious, subtle scent of fresh almonds. The scent stays soft and does not compete with your perfume. The 240 ml bottle lasts a long time, because a small amount is enough each time. It looks good on a bathroom shelf, where it is always within reach.

Frequently asked questions

Is the lotion suitable for every skin type?

Yes. L’Occitane describes Almond Milk Veil as suitable for all skin types. Its light texture also suits anyone who does not like heavy creams.

How often should I use it?

L’Occitane recommends massaging it over the whole body in the morning and/or evening. Many people like to apply it straight after a shower.

How is a body lotion different from a body cream?

A body lotion is more fluid and lighter, so it spreads quickly over large areas. A body cream is denser and suits skin that needs more nourishment.

What can I use on very dry spots?

For elbows, knees and heels, the almond body balm from the same range is a good match. Its texture is richer, with the same lovely almond scent.
