A quiet confluence
Balance Lavender Hand & Body Lotion
A drench that never weighs: Balance, embodied with pure lavender essential oil, sinks deep and dries clean, moisture without heaviness.
Containing a concentrated blend of botanicals and emollient ingredients, including shea butter, sweet almond oil, apricot seed oil, and vitamin E, this readily absorbed lotion moisturizes the hands and body to leave them feeling soft and supple. The estate's first product for the skin, made since 2006, hydrating and quietly calming, carried by an evocative lavender aroma.
Even the bottle carries provenance: aluminum, in a French tradition begun in Grasse in 1833 among plant distillers, copper still makers, and perfumers, chosen to shield the essential oil from light. Held in the estate's considered packaging, never plastic.
The non-greasy after-feel makes it ideal for frequent use on dry or parched skin.

Choose a botanical blend.

Packaging and recycling. Many of our packaging components are recyclable. We recommend taking them apart before sorting: remove labels, pumps, and caps. Our aluminium tins and bottles are recyclable, so separate the lid or cap first. Bottles and jars may be recycled. Labels, pumps, pipettes, and caps go in the waste bin. Pumps and pipettes are also lovely to reuse.
A closer look at lavender
A familiar name can hold more than one plant. The Tisserand Institute notes that different species within Lavandula produce essential oils with different profiles. A botanical name, such as Lavandula angustifolia, identifies the source plant more precisely than “lavender” alone. That distinction matters when choosing a lavender essential oil.
