Let's talk about Mild Mannered Face Lotion
This elegant gel-like emulsion does exactly what you hope it to - it’s lightweight yet ultra hydrating and doesn’t leave your face feeling tight or greasy.
Our skin cells are two thirds water, so hydration is absolutely key to ageless skin health.
Aloe, comfrey and jojoba and are super soothing and calming against irritation from environmental stressors, panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) is reparative, vegetable glycerin attracts moisture to your cells and betaine forms hydration crystals on your skin keeping it plump and quenched.
We're very particular about how we like our moisturisers to feel, so this moisturiser took over 2 years and 70 versions in the making.
Moisturisers essentially consist of humectants, emollients and occlusives. Humectants bring the moisture and hold it in your cells, emollients soften and nourish, and occlusives protect by sealing all the moisture in with a physical lipid barrier.
This lotion is high on the humectants and emollients but doesn’t have much in the way of occlusives, which means you can layer it without build up.
Plus, it’s the absolute perfect accompaniment to our facial oils - use the lotion first and our oils over the top as your occlusive layer.
Rather than bulk this formula up with fashionable actives, we chose to use timeless ingredients that are veterans of dermal health.
It’s a lotion for life, to see you through all skin phases.
Quenches and softens dry skin with moisturising and calming botanicals. Won’t block pores. Great for layering under your SPF and makeup. Suitable for all skin types.

This moisturiser is incredible! I have sensitive skin and have had no issues - it's super light but really hydrating. I use it in conjunction with the Daily Glow Facial Oil (which is another fantastic product from NB!) and it doesn't pile - the two are a great combo!
The bottle is 100ml and has a cap, so it is easy to keep closed when travelling.
Overall, highly recommend! Another great product from Neighbourhood Botanicals!
I'm happy to say this has become a must have in my arsenal. It's got the perfect consistency and keeps my skin feeling fresh.
I was looking for a lightweight moisturiser to use in conjunction with my usual serum as my skin has become very dry. It was also important to me that the cream contain no nasties and have sustainable packaging. This cream is perfect!
Absolutely beautiful serum - makes my skin feel so soft and calm.
The light Lotion is really good in the high Temperature Summers in Southern Germany. But I also use it in Wintertime in Combination with the Another Year Wiser Oil. Perfect for Sensitive and also dry Skin.
