SKIN SENSATION

Molton Brown's new line of body therapies sources ingredients from exotic climes—cedar-tree oil from Morocco, cardamom from Guatemala, and desert plants from Africa. Each of the four collections is designed to remedy a particular woe. The antioxidant-rich Purify cleanses and invigorates skin, while Unwind revives tired muscles with sea salt and samphire extract. The luxuriously creamy Nurture bathing milk quenches skin with olive oil, and Sleep uses orange oil and Bulgarian lavender to induce sweet slumber.
