EDITOR’S NOTE

This L'Occitane Shea Lavender Liquid Soap is made using the traditional saponification process and cauldron-cooking developed by their master soap makers in Haute Provence. It expertly blends high quality vegetal oils as Shea Oil with Provence-evocative scent. The relaxing notes of Lavender reveal floral facets of jasmine, like a poetic dream of an ocean with violet hues basking under the zenith sun. The timeless design is inspired by the apothecary jar, while the pump is stamped as a witness of the rigorous artisanal process. For over 40 years, sustainable shea sourcing practices in West Africa have supported 6,000 women producers while helping to preserve shea trees and their environment. That’s how their Icon nourishes skin, communities and ecosystems.
