ST. IVES LAVENDER & CHAMOMILE CLAMING BODY WASH 650ML

Description

St. Ives Lavender & Chamomile Calming Body Wash is a hydrating, moisturizing daily cleanser infused with 100% natural lavender and chamomile extracts. It creates a rich, creamy lather that gently cleanses while calming the senses and skin. The signature scent blends relaxing lavender (floral, herbal) with chamomile (soft, apple-like sweetness)—think spa-like serenity in your shower, not overpowering but fresh and comforting. It’s paraben-free, dermatologist-tested, cruelty-free (PETA-approved), made with no animal-derived ingredients, and often in 100% recycled plastic bottles. Suitable for all skin types, especially normal to dry or sensitive—great for evening routines to promote relaxation without stripping moisture.

How to Use

1. In the shower, wet your body with lukewarm water.
2. Pump a moderate amount (palm-sized or more for full body) into your hands, loofah, sponge, or African net.
3. Lather gently by massaging over your skin in circular motions—take time to enjoy the calming aroma.
4. Rinse thoroughly with water.
5. Use daily (ideal for evenings to wind down, or mornings for a gentle start) as your regular body cleanser.
6. Pat dry, then apply a moisturizer or body lotion (St. Ives has matching ones like their lavender variants) if your skin feels dry.
7. Tips: The lather is sudsy but rinses clean quickly. For extra relaxation, pair with dim lights or calming music. Avoid eyes. If sensitive, patch test first.
