Description
Orange blossom floral water is a time-honoured beauty ritual of the Maghreb. The one from Melvita, a French organic cosmetics brand, is obtained by steam distillation of fresh bitter orange blossoms.
This 200 ml spray bottle contains a lotion of 100% natural origin, with a soft, fruity scent. Nearly 200 g of fresh flowers are needed for one bottle, according to the brand. It softens and freshens the skin at any time of the day.
This Melvita floral water is used as a toner after removing make-up, as a refreshing mist or to set make-up. It suits all skin types, even sensitive ones.
