L'Occitane x Rifle Paper Co.

I am a huge fan of L'Occitane and I also love stationery. The two things coming together for a collaboration is quite something, quite stunning and I love it. If you haven't seen, L'Occitane and Rifle Paper Co have worked together to adorn their classic Shea Butter collection with these beautiful hand-painted designs to bring to life the natural beauty of Provence with texture, scents and colours.

Bringing the whole collection together, the founder of Rifle Paper of said:
I started Rifle Paper Co. with the hope of bringing beauty to the everyday,” says Rifle Paper Co. co-founder and Creative Director Anna Bond, “I’m thrilled to partner with L’OCCITANE, a brand that shares the same sense of small pleasures, as we create a custom collection inspired by the gardens of Provence.

One of the first products I ever used from L'Occitane is the Shea Butter Hand Cream quite some years ago and it was the only cream I had found to heal my very dry, chapped hands.  From that day, even now, I always have a tube of this cream in my drawer for emergencies and for those times when I just need some TLC for my hands.  It is enriched with 20% organic Shea Butter and is a really creamy balm which penetrates the skin quickly to help protect, nourish and moisturise hands. The formula also uses a blend of honey, almond extract and coconut oil to work alongside the Shea Butter to leave hands soft and smooth and despite being a creamy cream, I have never found it to be greasy.

The collaboration with Rifle Paper Co sees the classic handcream (£20) which is a beautiful blue and green design, sit alongside miniature versions (£8) in both Rose and Shea Butter.  If you ever need a hand cream for your hand bag or for holidays, the mini hand creams are amazing!  Alongside hand creams the collaboration stretches to a Soaps Trio, Three Balms in fragrances Shea, Rose and Apricot and some incredible beautiful tin collections which are called The Best of Winter and Hand Cream Duo.  To look at they are just absolutely stunning and are available right now.
