I really have to remind myself to stop purchasing body creams, especially those that state upfront that they’re ultra rich. But I just never seem to learn. Even with an almost brand new container of Oliver Body Butter from The Body Shop left on my shelf, I ventured to purchase a 200ml jar of L’Occitane Ultra Rich Body Cream at S$69. Why?
Ultra rich body cream are just not for me. Despite being a customer favorite, I just don’t take to this much acclaimed ultimate moisturizing comfort with 25% concentration of Shea Butter too well. There’s nothing wrong with the product really. It’s simply too rich for my liking that’s all. I should have gotten the body lotion but I must have been really weak-minded at that point of purchase.
A pampering, whipped cream enriched with linseed, mallow, sweet almond and honey extracts, apricot oil and vitamin E. Fast-absorbing; non-greasy texture. Enchants with a light fragrance of jasmine and ylang-ylang essences.
If you’ve dry skin badly in need of moisturising, this is the cream for you. It’s really rich and while not greasy, it’ll leave a heavy film of protection on your skin. Which explains why I’m not keen on it. At the moment, I use it on the driest part of my body, such as my elbows. But the good thing is that this can also double up as a hand cream as well so it’s not a total loss for me.
L’Occitane Ultra Rich Body Cream is also available at StrawberryNET.com, and at a cheaper price than what I’ve obtained at the local store.

i’ve tried a sample of this before and I was feeling squirmy all the time despite applying very little of it. It is too rich for me to use in singapore’s climate, but if you use it in States or elsewhere less humid, it might work.
msff: Yup, probably suitable if you sleep in aircon all night long too. But I don’t cos of my son…
