Olla Light Cream

Description

Autumn ritual. The warm, spiced one.

Olla smells like autumn in a tin - juicy sweet orange, warm cinnamon and clove, with earthy patchouli underneath. It's the one I reach for on dark mornings when I need waking up.

A light, fast-absorbing cream for face, body, hands and feet, made for normal to dry skin and skin that's looking a little dull now the weather's turned. Coffee seed oil, golden jojoba and cocoa butter in a soft neroli water base. Not sticky, not greasy, and lovely under make-up.

The name came from a CONCHUS customer. Café de olla is a Mexican coffee made with cinnamon, clove and orange - and it summed this collection up perfectly.

Key Ingredients

• Coffee seed oil - a rich, nourishing oil that leaves skin feeling soft
• Golden jojoba oil - a liquid wax very similar to the skin's own oils
• Cocoa butter - rich and softening, for skin that feels tight or dry
• Neroli floral water - a softly scented base in place of plain water
• Olla essential oil blend - sweet orange, may chang, patchouli, cinnamon and clove

How to use

• Scoop a small amount from the tin
• Massage over your face and neck
• Cover your face with your hands for a moment - breathe in, breathe out
• Use what's left on hands, cuticles, elbows, legs and feet
• Works well under make-up

Suitability
