When L’OCCITANE launched their Au Brésil line earlier this month, I couldn’t ignore the new sun care range. After all, the footwear I could live in year round comes from Brazil. With a handful of sunny days and a glorious Memorial Day Weekend, all I wore were my Havaianas flip-flops with L’OCCITANE Jenipapo SPF products for face and body! #MadeInBrazil
The Au Brésil collection consists of two ranges: VITÓRIA RÉGIA influenced by an Amazonian flower and a JENIPAPO line of sun inspired products for face and body. Jenipapo, a fruit tree from the Cerrado region grows extremely fast to beat the comptetitive flora and soak up the most sun rising above the rest. Sounds like me at a rooftop pool party. #TakesOneToKnowOne
The Jenipapo Face Protection Veil SPF 30 is an ultra lightweight lotion that leaves a matte finish upon application. This broad spectrum sunscreen is perfect for outdoor use at the pool or beach or as a last step of an everyday morning routine. With a light, pleasant scent, this whisper of a lotion delivers extreme protection. #LiftingTheVeil
It’s no secret that body oils are my pick for SPF protection for the body. They last, apply easily and add that glisten to the skin that says ‘Brazil’ even if you are very fair and Made In Poland. Jenipapo Protecting Body Oil SPF 15 guards against sunburn while helping to master the signature Gisele Bündchen tan. Moisturizing properties of the Jenipapo tree with sensual green, floral and fruity notes make for a luxurious experience. #SoHaute
L’OCCITANE commissioned Brazilian illustrators for the packaging design of the Au Brésil line. Representing local passion and culture, Andrés Sandoval was in charge of Jenipapo products and Joana Lira designed for the Vitória-Régia range. Hosting FIFA World Cup next month and the Summer Olympics in 2016, Brazil is clearly THE destination. #TudoBem?
With Memorial Day Weekend behind us and hopefully a warm summer ahead, explore L’OCCITANE Au Brésil even if you don’t have a trip booked. Both ranges are rather extensive and using broad spectrum SPF is extremely important. Scent yourself with VITÓRIA RÉGIA and protect yourself with JENIPAPO. These perfect summer treats are not staying around forever. #LimitedEdition
Wow! This sounds amazing and makes me want to go on holiday (or vacation as you call it over there) immediately! Considering its limited edition I need to find it ASAP!
