Pestle & Mortar The Body Cream 500ml is a rich, dermatologist-approved body moisturiser designed to deliver 24-hour hydration while supporting the skin barrier. Created especially for dry, very dry, sensitive and rough skin, its fragrance-free formula combines skin-identical lipids, botanical extracts and barrier-supporting ingredients to leave skin softer, smoother and more comfortable.

Powered by Pestle & Mortar’s Barrier Recovery Complex, the formula combines squalane and shea butter to replenish essential lipids and deeply nourish dry skin. Oat kernel extract helps soothe dry, uncomfortable-feeling skin, while Gotu Kola (Centella Asiatica) supports skin conditioning and comfort.

The formula also contains glycerin, niacinamide, panthenol, vitamin E, avocado oil and rosehip oil, creating a comprehensive daily body moisturiser that hydrates, softens and helps maintain the skin’s protective barrier.

Despite its nourishing formula, Pestle & Mortar The Body Cream absorbs quickly and is formulated to moisturise without clogging pores. With regular use, even very dry or reactive-feeling skin is left feeling softer, smoother, hydrated and more comfortable.
