What it is

Meet your new single-ingredient hand and body skin saviour: Pure Nilotica Melt, which is crafted from certified organic skin superfood, nilotica. A nut butter that’s sky-high in essential fatty acids (25% more than in shea butter), this is sourced in the most pristine areas of the Nile River Valley and has been used for millennia by local Ugandan women. Ultra-hydrating, the luxurious balm-to-oil deeply nourishes thirsty skin to help smooth visible imperfections. As well as working miracles on skin,  (pronounced ‘luxe me’ and named after Lakshmi, the Hindu goddess of prosperity) has transformed the fortunes of the local Ugandan women who produce the nilotica, generating ethical employment and much-needed income. What's not to love!

DESCRIPTION

When  founder, Leila Janah, came across nilotica butter (a rare nut butter that’s similar to shea) at a market in Uganda, she was astounded by its effects. Used by local Ugandan women for millennia – women in the region are known for their incredible skin – this moisturising miracle swiftly transformed Leila's dry, travel-worn skin from lacklustre to luminous. Formed from the highest grade nuts in the most pristine areas of the Nile River Valley, Pure Nilotica Melt is a single-ingredient skin saviour designed specifically for your hands and body. Delivered as a luxurious balm-to-oil, which nourishes thirsty skin to help smooth visible imperfections, leaving you with the most gorgeous glow from top to toe. Rich in essential fatty acids (25% more than in traditional shea butter) nilotica also contains natural vitamin crystals that dissolve into skin upon application. Used whenever you need it, Pure Nilotica Hand & Body Melt has received a host of rave reviews on LXMI’s site. What’s more, the brand’s admirable commitment to ethical trading means that the local Ugandan women employed to produce the nilotica are always paid fairly – up to three times the average local wage. Transforming your skin and the fortunes of its producers, there’s nothing not to love about LXMI’s sublime range. 

HOW TO USE

Stir the Melt with your cooling copper-tipped wand. Apply as a salve to dry skin as needed, focusing on face, lips, and around eye orbital areas. For a glowy effect on low necklines, apply to your décolletage. Additionally, use as an overnight leave-on mask.
