CRÈME CHARTREUSE ◦ Herbal Face and Body Cream

𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐮𝐬𝐞 ; ❝Chartreuse Cream❞ ◦ Multi-Purpose Herbal Soothing Cream

Chartreuse is a French herbal liqueur, crafted by Carthusian monks since 1737 in accordance with instructions set out in an alchemical manuscript for an "Elixir of Long Life", given to them by a French diplomat in 1605. It was named after the monks' Grande Chartreuse monastery, located in the Chartreuse Mountains, and said to have been composed of 130 common herbs, plants, and flowers including "lemon balm, dried hyssop flower tops, peppermint, thyme, costmary, arnica flowers, artemisias, and angelica roots." The exact recipes for all forms of Chartreuse remain trade secrets, rumoured to be known at any given time only to those who prepare the herbal mixture.

Crème Chartreuse is a vernal twist on our signature face and body cream, imbued with the resilient spirit and soothing qualities of Spring's most generous gifts. Specially formulated to coddle dry, sensitive, or mature skin types, this moisturizing cream is lightweight, deeply penetrating, and immediately cooling, with a light natural fragrance and a wealth of beneficial topical properties. Apply day or night as needed.
