ACQUA DI PARMA

The Italian lifestyle and fashion company has enriched its Blu Mediterraneo collection with a body lotion ($69), hand cream ($39) and lip balm ($29), essential accessories in a ritual of sensory indulgence inspired by the following fragrances: Arancia di Capri, Bergamotto di Calabria, Fico di Amalfi, Mirto di Panarea and the latest creation, Chinotto di Liguria.

The body lotion boasts a barely-there, light consistency combined with the scent of a perfumed cloud. This is due to the moisturising properties of almond and olive oil plus the antioxidant benefits of grape seed.

The hand cream's shea butter and argan oil deeply nourish the skin while the extract of lemon balm has a soothing action.

And the lip balm's shea butter and vitamin C are extraordinarily moisturising and help prevent skin ageing.

Acqua di Parma's latest products are now available at escentials Paragon and Robinsons Heeren.
