Skin care with stimulating effects on body and brain

Biotherm's moisturizing body milk with sparkling - awakening - citrus (orange and grapefruit) scent and anti-dryness texture is since 1972 legendary in the world of cosmetics.

Did you know that citrus is one of the first scents children recognize? Citrus stimulates you emotions positively. It's a 'happynizer' and brings the sun to your heart. Alongside, citrus has the effect to awake your body power. Skin care rituals dates from Antiquity. The custom is wellknown and celebrated for its therapeutic benefits.

In 2008, Biotherm/L’Oreal has invited students of Parsons Paris to the contest 'When it becomes milk'.

fig.: Balance Body Roller Alexander Jentes, Shang-Lun Chiu and Jimmy Lai have designed the 'Balance Body Roller', a bath and massage accessory that aims to reinvigorate the senses and realign the spirit, a respite from the pressures of a chaotic world.

It is designed to be filled with any type of bath product—from soap, to lotion to massage oil. When rolled over the skin it automatically dispenses the product to allow the user to simultaneously massage the body. This strengthens the skin and its elasticity by boosting the circulation on a natural and healthy way.

fig.: Lait de Douche The soapfree formula is enriched with extra moisturizing oils to protect dry skin (perfectly made for a massage under the shower), and contains citrus essences which leave a delicate scent on the skin.

fig.: Milk Slippers Charlotte Bodum has created these 'Milk Slippers'. The slippers are developed from the idea of a 'nomad spa' to bring a fast, simple relief for the feet with a relaxing splash of Body Milk that makes every step a pleasure.

fig.: Lait Corporel The ultra-fluid texture glides easily over the skin and penetrates quickly. Thanks to the anti-dryness ingredients at the heart of the formula - glycerin, olive oil, Vitamin E - and pure thermal plankton, the skin is moisturized, supple and soft.
