BeautyHack special correspondent Moore Soboleva continues to try body creams that make you feel like a queen and a gorgeous woman.

Nairian body cream

A curious Armenian organic brand was brought to Russia by Cosmotheca less than a month ago. My first impressions of using it are pleasant - Nairian combines well Western technologies and local ingredients, and the result is a mix in the best traditions of niche care brands. The bottles of the brand are minimalistic, but expensive and effective - no flashy luxury, sheer grace. The brand has one body cream, with a light texture and a scent of herbs warmed by the sun. The only sadness is only 100 ml in the package.

Giardino Benessere White Musk Body Lotion

Giardino Benessere is the project of the indefatigable Italian Paolo Terenzi, who, together with his sister Titiana, makes the Tiziana Terenzi brand. The latter produces mostly heavy, dense, complex fragrances according to the current niche fashion. Within the framework of the Giardino Benessere, there are smells that are simpler in composition - Terenzi calls Giardino Benessere a line for novice users of the perfumery niche. Contrary to the picture above, I have White Musk scent lotion - a subtle floral musk. The lotion itself is absorbed quickly and is not greasy at all, so it is perfect for morning and summer.

Jo Malone London Dark Amber & Ginger Lily

I recently wrote about my reverent attitude towards leaving Jo Malone London: already at the stage of unrolling the box with ribbons, you feel very special. My body cream belongs to the Intense series - in this line the aromas are deeper and richer than in the main one. The aroma of Dark Amber & Ginger Lily is one of the most interesting in the line, in my opinion, and the fragrant cream of the same name is quite dense and nourishes the skin no worse than a serious butter.

Elemis Frangipani Monoi Body Oil

The British brand made oil “for everything” - it is recommended to use it for the body and hair, as well as for the final stage of manicure and pedicure. The oil smells stunning frangipani and is packed in a bottle hinting at its oriental origin. It is not sticky to the touch and absorbs quickly. And it also freezes funny, and even at not very low temperatures - as soon as you open the window, and the oil turns into a balm. To thaw it, you need to put it in a container of warm water - they say, I'm so luxurious that I even make a bath with my body oil!

Ligne St Barth Sea Breeze Premium Care Oil

Another dry oil for body and hair belongs to the Sea Breeze line - the most expensive in the range of the already expensive brand Ligne St Barth. The oil has a warm, sweet scent (the aroma of warm sand, according to Ligne St Barth) and small gold particles in the composition. The brand suggests adding it to the bath, using it after showering, or making hair masks "if your hair is damaged by the sun and the sea." Oh, if only.
