Who’s it for? If you want your skin to feel matte but look radiant, try this illuminating face cream for oily skin or complexions prone to uneven pigmentation. Used in the Lush Spa, in theValidation treatment, a 60 minute luxurious bespoke facial including deep cleanse, fresh face mask, nourishing serum and facial moisturiser, accompanied by massage.What’s in it for you? Remember the flawless silver-screen skin of early Hollywood heroines? That’s what this mattifying facial moisturiser was made to do for shiny, slightly dull complexions. Fresh lemons are rich in vitamin C and can have a depigmenting action, so we combine an infusion with freshly juiced papaya for its enzymic, stimulating properties on the skin. Balanced with over 4% soothing aloe vera, both munch up excess oil for matte, glowy skin.Because oily skin still needs moisture, we add avocado oil and evening primrose for their high fatty acid content, which supports skin health and elasticity, and Fair Trade organic cocoa butter for softness. Vitamin E-rich wheatgerm oil is chosen for its linoleic acid content, believed to boost the stability and health of the skin barrier so your complexion is positively glowing with health.What’s in it for the planet? Inside you’ll find aloe vera gel from leaves grown under organic conditions in Mexico, and 100% traceable Fair Trade and organic cocoa butter from sources in Sierra Leone, Dominican Republic and Peru where agroforestry models are in practice to protect local forests.Preserved:We've used small amounts of synthetic preservatives to keep this product fresh for 12 months.
