Why it’s cult:

Founded by Tiffany Masterson who wanted to formulate products without any ‘fillers’, Drunk Elephant’s all-star collection is powered by biocompatible actives – a mix of synthetic and plant-derived extracts – that skin recognises and knows what to do with. Extending the exfoliating benefits of their bestselling T.L.C. line-up to skin from the neck down, the T.L.C. Glycolic Body Lotion gently smooths and refines rough, bumpy skin as it consolidates uneven tone. Simultaneously refining and moisturising your skin, this lotion is the key to enviably soft, smooth limbs.

Description:

Replenishing as it resurfaces, this clever formula is loaded with a mix of antioxidant-rich, non-fragrant plant oils and butters — think green tea seed, passionfruit, apricot, marula, and shea— to soothe and deeply moisturise dry, irritated skin. A helping of squalane, vitamin F, sodium hyaluronate and niacinamide then helps to encourage a stronger, healthier acid mantle, leaving your skin more equipped to defend against environmental stressors. A must for compromised skin, the lotion even boosts the production of vital natural moisturising factors — like ceramides and cholesterol — that keep skin soft and supple.

How to use:

Apply to clean, dry skin once per day. Those new to AHA exfoliation may want to start slowly, using T.L.C. Glycolic Body Lotion every other day for the first week of application. Note: Slight tingling may be experienced, particularly for the first few days of application. This typically dissipates as your skin becomes adjusted. May be mixed with Sili™ Body Lotion for a milder exfoliation experience.

WARNING: Use only as directed. Avoid eye contact. Discontinue use immediately if irritation occurs and consult a physician. Use a sunscreen daily while using this product and for a week after ceasing use. Product’s contact with skin must be of limited frequency or duration. Do not use on broken skin.

Drunk Elephant don’t recommend using T.L.C. Glycolic Body Lotion the same day as shaving.

Consider sticking to one form of exfoliation — physical or chemical — per day (or as often as you find works for you). Try alternating T.L.C. Glycolic Body Lotion with Sugared Koffie Scrub.

Great for smoothing rough, bumpy areas on the body, from your décolleté to your derrière.
