Lapiz Matte Body Oil

Description

Monastery Lapiz Matte Body Oil is a lightweight oil designed to condition and soften the skin while delivering a smooth, comfortable finish. This fast-absorbing formula sinks in quickly without leaving residue, making it ideal for daily use. It glides easily across the body, helping maintain hydration and leaving skin feeling supple, soft, and well cared for.

Formulated with squalane derived from olives, along with gingergrass, grapefruit, and peppercorn, the blend offers both nourishment and an energizing aromatic experience. Squalane helps support moisture retention while enhancing the feeling of softness to the skin. The fresh, stimulating scent uplifts the senses, while the lightweight texture leaves skin feeling smooth, hydrated, and refreshed.

HOW TO USE IT

Apply to clean skin immediately after showering, using smooth, upward strokes to help the oil spread evenly. Allow a few minutes for the formula to fully absorb before getting dressed. It can also be applied to dry skin at any time to enhance softness and comfort. Adjust the amount as needed based on preference and desired level of hydration.
