L’Occitane en Provence presents the Artichoke line of body care with advanced technology that helps reduce fluid retention.
To alleviate symptoms such as swollen and tired legs, increased cellulite and loss of elasticity, an effective solution is to stimulate circulation through body massage. Done with your hands or with the help of Body Gua Sha, the technique can help reduce fluid retention and swelling, as well as discomfort by activating the body’s circulation. Of Asian origin, Gua Sha is an ancient non-invasive traditional technique, which involves gliding the tool across the surface of the body to stimulate blood circulation, promoting increased elasticity and toning. Currently, it is widely used to help treat muscle discomfort, in addition to relieving symptoms of stress.
By combining the effectiveness of massage techniques with the power of artichoke extract, L’Occitane en Provence, a reference brand in beauty and well-being products, created the artichoke high-performance body line together with L’Occitane SPA therapists .
Rich in polyphenols and inulin, the artichoke is a plant native to the Mediterranean region, with medicinal, diuretic, fat-digesting and cholesterol-fighting properties. For topical products, the brand highlights artichoke leaf extract as the protagonist in high-performance formulas and advanced technology, capable of reducing the permeability of blood vessels by 60% and helping with microcirculation when associated with massage.
With Massage Cream, Body Scrub and Gua Sha Body Massager, the launch combines a self-massage protocol inspired by lymphatic drainage techniques with the benefits of artichokes for the skin.
