Boscia takes on body care
If you’re wondering what happened to last week’s newsletter, don’t worry, you didn’t miss it! I had a particularly jam-packed week that I literally didn’t have time to post—but I’m back with some big news this Monday…
It’s always exciting when a great brand ventures out into new territory, and in this case, one of our Japanese-inspired favorites, Boscia, launched a body category today! This expansion begins with the basics (at least in my opinion), including an exfoliating body wash, firming body serum and an all-over body deodorant—which is a totally new concept to me, but one that makes complete sense.
Let’s start with the Papaya and Pomegranate Enzyme Exfoliating Body Cleanser (which needs to be in my shower ASAP). As the name implies, this body wash is packed with fruit-based enzymes along with mild alpha-hydroxy acids for gentle exfoliation that helps you step out of the shower with smoother, softer skin. You may also notice improvement in your skin’s radiance and tone as well any wrinkling (which I’m unfortunately starting see when I bend my arms in certain ways). The scent features a blend of rosemary, orange and grapefruit that I imagine would be a great way to get going in the morning, at least until the coffee kicks in.
Next up is the Peptide Youth-Restore Firming Body Serum, and my arms are already begging me to get this. Formulated with skin-plumping moisture, a firming tripeptide, soothing chamomile and brightening niacinamide—and the same zesty, citrus scent—this might be the product that helps me take my anti-aging body care a bit more seriously.
Last, but certainly not least, is the Prebiotic + Probiotic Freshening All-Over Deodorant. Harnessing the power of “good” bacteria to prevent B.O., kaolin clay to absorb odor-causing impurities and lemon for natural astringent (and brightening!) benefits, you can use this cream well past your pits. Since it leaves skin with a soft, matte finish, it’s great for areas that are prone to rubbing (and sweating), like under your boobs and the inner thighs—and it will keep you feeling and smelling fresh!
I’ve never met a Boscia product I didn’t like, and if you couldn’t tell, I’m pretty jazzed about this new body collection. And BTW, everything from this innovative botanically-based brand is free of chemical preservatives, artificial fragrances and all that other nasty stuff, all while being gentle enough for sensitive skin. I’ll report back on the new body products when I try them!
