Beauty Notebook: Naturally active body perfecters. Kate Shapland on naturally active body perfecters and the novelty of a bath mitt.
Botanicals have always been part of the beauty apothecary, but better knowledge of the most powerful plant actives (like red vine extract, spirulina and the vasoconstrictor escine) – and ways to mix these for maximum potency – has given us a new generation of body-perfectors. So where once all we had at our disposal was body lotion and the odd exfoliator, now there is a raft of sophisticated topicals and oral supplements which live up to their promises, creating leaner, firmer limbs and more even-textured skin.
