Astral Face & Body Intensive Moisturiser Cream with Cocoa Butter 200ml

Product Information

If your skin is dry, and you tend to find that your make-up cakes throughout the day - or clings to drier areas of your face - Astral cream is a great makeup primer. When you consider this, it’s no wonder your skin can become tight and uncomfortable on a plane, which is why the 50ml pot of Astral – small enough to take in your hand luggage – can be your in-flight saviour.

Even better, once you reach your destination, it’s excellent for soothing skin after a day in the sun. 6. Use your Astral cream to... Remove makeup Although a proper cleansing balm or lotion is ideal, Astral can step in as an emergency makeup remover when you need it.Even if you’ve never used it, it’s likely you could recognise a tub of Astral cream from ten paces – that small blue pot has been adorning dressing tables over the world for sixty years, plus for its ability to quench the thirst of extremely dry complexions. So you’ve finally mastered applying fake tan perfectly (our advice: use a barrier cream on dry areas like knees and elbows, and blend, blend, blend with a tanning mitt). Now you’ve got that golden glow, you want it to last, don't you?

If you have followed the above process but feel that you have had a reaction to a product, please immediately report this in writing with photographs to [email protected]. As it’s super-rich yet still mild, it’s a good plan to keep a little pot of Astral in your handbag especially as, unlike many hand creams, you can also use it on your face.Please inspect goods fully on receipt. Any damages / shortages / incorrect products must be reported in writing at [email protected] within 24 hours from receipt of goods, with full details of the issue. If you want to feel baby soft after the shower, this is your go-to – just remember to apply it to damp skin for optimum results. 4. Use your Astral cream as… a makeup primer But that's not all. The clever thing about this wonder cream is that it's even more versatile than how it's marketed. Sure, your grandma might swear by it, but here are eight other uses for your Astral cream that'll take you beyond a simple 'nighttime moisturiser.'

The super-moisturising formula keeps skin hydrated throughout the day, creating the perfect skin base for makeup. We understand that on occasion you may need to return an item.

Hi, I'm Gio. I'm a no-nonsense, tell-it-like-it-is skin coach and writer on a mission to help you achieve your best skin day ever - every day. I bust skincare myths and debunk marketing jargon to help you figure out what's worth the splurge and what's best left on the shelf - using science, not hype. I also offer skincare consultations to help you create the best skincare routine for your unique needs. But wait! Don’t surfactants have a bad rep? Yes. Blame it on the old generation of surfactants (I’m looking at you, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate). They were drying, irritating and stripped all traces of moisturising oils from your skin. The rich formulation of Astral Original is a simple water in oil emulsion formula. It acts as a barrier cream, stopping the moisture already held in the skin from evaporating, while simultaneously delivering extra moisture, leaving skin feeling plumped, pliable and less dryAstral is a great option for moisturising the entire body because of ingredients such as glycerin and lanolin, Coleman says. Here's the thing, according to its makers, well, there's none. It's literally nothing more than a water-oil emulsion. Its main USP is that it’s ‘just’ a moisturiser. ‘Astral cream doesn’t contain any miracle ingredients,’ its makers say proudly.

However, it's also moisturising enough to provide effective hydration to dryer parts of the body such as your hands, knees and elbows. 8. Use your Astral cream as… a face mask You may not have heard much about Astral Original for a while but for me, it’s a bit like the high street, much more affordable version of Eight Hour Cream; A hundred and one uses and always handy to have in your beauty stash. The Astral brand is a very nostalgic one for me. Have you ever wondered why your skin feels so dehydrated after a long flight? It’s because air in the pressurised cabin of planes is often less than 20% humidity (by way of comparison, the ideal relative humidity in a British home is around 50 to 55%).
