Laponie's Body Cream for sensitive and problem skin is a simple, intensively hydrating body moisturiser. It's light enough to absorb fast, leaving skin with a soft feel, yet deeply nourishing to tackle dry and sensitive skin. 

Swedish rapeseed oil conditions and softens skin, probiotic oat xylitol hydrates and balances the skin’s microbiome, and colloidal oatmeal prevents water loss and soothes irritation. Suitable for the whole family.

Formulated for sensitive & problem skin. No added fragrance. Vegan & natural ingredients. Developed & made in Finland. Allergy-labelled. 

Ingredients (INCI)

Aqua, canola oil, glycerin, polyglyceryl-2 stearate, sodium levulinate, xylitol, avena sativa kernel flour, glyceryl stearate, stearyl alcohol, xanthan gum, sodium anisate, tocopherol, citric acid .

Aqua
Solvent. Water. The main vehicle for our Body Cream.
Canola Oil
Emollient and skin conditioning. Sustainably produced, deodorized and purified Swedish canola oil (from rapeseed oil) gently dissolves makeup and dirt. Canola oil is commonly used in cosmetics and is well-tolerated, skin wise. It is slightly higher in oleic acid (at around 60%), with linoleic and alpha-linolenic acids at a total of just over 30%, making it a good all-around oil for most, and especially for drier and eczema prone skins.
Glycerin
Humectant and skin protecting. Technically a sugar alcohol, glycerin is one of the oldest, most common and most versatile humectants used in cosmetics. It moisturises and protects the skin, accelerates skin barrier recovery and has antimicrobial properties, among other things. We use the vegetable kind, made from rapeseed and organic corn and soy oils.
Polyglyceryl-2 Stearate
Surfactant - emulsifying. One third of the non-ionic plant-based Cosmos certified surfactant and emulsifier - i.e. an ingredient enabling us to mix water and oil - we’ve used in the Body Cream. It works to form the form the emulsion-like texture of the Cream. Bonus: this emulsifier combo has been shown to selectively preserve and restore the cutaneous microflora of skin.
Sodium Levulinate
Skin conditioning and preservative. Sodium levulinate is the sodium salt of levulinic acid, an organic acid that in this case is derived from sugarcane. Together with sodium anisate, water and plant derived glycerin, it makes up the preservation system we use for our Body Cream. At the appropriate pH, the salts transform into acid, and voilà – product preserved.
Xylitol
Humectant and skin conditioning. Xylitol is a sugar alcohol that moisturises and conditions skin, whilst possessing anti-bacterial properties. There is some interesting research that suggests xylitol has the ability to inhibit bacterial biofilm on skin, which in turn may be the cause of many skin issues. The one we use is made in Finland from Finnish oats.
Avena Sativa Kernel Flour
Skin protecting. Colloidal oatmeal. The whole oat grain, including the bran layer, is milled and sieved. This results in a light cream coloured, fine powder. The bran layer of the oat contains a high proportion of natural actives, including oat beta-glucan, avenanthramides, oil and protein, all of which are beneficial for cosmetic use on the skin. A 'colloid' or colloidal suspension is defined as a substance with dispersed insoluble particles suspended throughout. Colloidal oatmeal soothes and relieves redness, itching and minor skin irritations caused by eczema or skin rashes and is monographed by the FDA as a skin protectant. It reduces TEWL (transepidermal waterloss) and effectively forms a physical barrier on the skin surface. The oatmeal we use is made from Finnish oats.
Glyceryl Stearate
Skin conditioning (emollient) and surfactant (emulsifying). One third of the non-ionic plant-based Cosmos certified surfactant and emulsifier - i.e. an ingredient enabling us to mix water and oil - we’ve used in the Body Cream. It works to form the form the emulsion-like texture of the Cream. Bonus: this emulsifier combo has been shown to selectively preserve and restore the cutaneous microflora of skin.
Stearyl Alcohol
Skin conditioning (emollient), surfactant (emulsifying) and emulsion stabilising. One third of the non-ionic plant-based Cosmos certified surfactant and emulsifier - i.e. an ingredient enabling us to mix water and oil - we’ve used in the Body Cream. It works to form the form the emulsion-like texture of the Cream. Bonus: this emulsifier combo has been shown to selectively preserve and restore the cutaneous microflora of skin.
Xanthan Gum
Thickening, gel forming and emulsion stabilising. A natural and commonly used mainly thickener and gelling agent in cosmetics, xanthan gum is a polysaccharide produced through Bacterial fermentation of pure culture Xanthomonas Campestris with protein and carbohydrate sources, in this case from soy or corn.
Sodium Anisate
Antimicrobial, flavouring agent and preservative. The salt of star anis derived organic acid. The other half of our preservation system.
Tocopherol
Antioxidant. Vitamin E. A common antioxidant for fats and oils used in skincare. We use the vegetable kind, derived from soybean and rapeseed to prevent rancidity.
Citric Acid
Buffering agent. Citric acid is a commonly used buffering, i.e. pH adjusting, agent in cosmetics. It is made through bacterial fermentation and shifts the pH of the product into the acidic range. This is closer to the natural pH of the skin, which may range from 4 to 7, but is usually thought to be between 5 and 6, with recent studies, however, indicating it to be below 5.

Why it works for sensitive & problem skin

•Contains only 13 ingredients. 

•Formulated without added fragrance, essential oils, floral waters or alcohol. 

•pH is around 5.5 (healthy skin's own pH is slightly acidic, between 4.8 and 5.5).

•Formulated with a gentle and skin-friendly preservative system. We've created a unique preservative system for the Body Cream, to minimise overlap with our other leave-one products.  

•Cosmetic-grade Swedish rapeseed oil is a well-tolerated and balanced oil (in terms of fatty acid profile) for most skin types. Oat xylitol has probiotic benefits and maintains a healthy skin barrier while reducing bacterial biofilm (which can be a key player in causing atopic skin and eczema) and colloidal oatmeal (which has monograph by the FDA) has long been used in skincare to reduce redness and irritation and alleviate itching. 

•The Cream has been rigorously tested by our founder Kristina and chemist Jaana, both of whom have a long history of sensitive and problem skin.

•Allergy-labelled by the Finnish Allergy, Skin and Asthma Federation.
