I am really, incredibly lazy when it comes to body moisturising. I wouldn't go a day without slapping some moisturiser on my face, but it never seems worth the time or effort to apply all over my body.
I usually reserve body creams for special occasions, or times my legs are looking noticeably flaky. However, having used Mama Mio's new body cream I think I may have broken out of my bad habit.
This stuff is just brilliant. I thought it would be a thick cream judging by the tagline on the bottle - "You can never be too rich" - but this could not be further from the truth.
It feels silky to touch, more like a serum than a cream, and sinks into skin with minimum rubbing. It leaves skin feeling so much softer even after one application, I'm hooked!
The cream has a gorgeous light scent too - kind of citrusy - which leaves you feeling really fresh. Ingredients are as nourishing as you would expect from a Mamio Mio product, and include shea butter, evening primrose oil, sweet almond oil and avocado oil.
To further enhance your skin, I'd also highly recommend the new Body Buff to exfoliate flagging skin. You rub this handy product onto dry skin, then hop in the shower to rinse off. It leaves skin feeling smooth and with a great sheen - perfectly prepped for a layer of body cream!
Both products are a pleasure to use and have cemented my opinion of Mama Mio as a first-rate skincare brand.
Body Cream, €22. Body Buff €27.
