What's Inside? Key Ingredients

• Cocoa Butter (Theobroma Cacao Seed Butter): A rich natural fat that deeply moisturises, nourishes, and improves skin elasticity.
• Glycerin: A powerful humectant that draws moisture from the air into the skin to keep it hydrated.
• Lanolin: A highly effective emollient that mimics the skin's natural oils to lock in hydration and prevent water loss.
