Hand & Body Lotion with Bergamot Water

  • The UpCircle natural hand and body lotion with bergamot water is the addition you need to your beauty essentials. This lightweight, natural cream moisturises and softens every skin, even the most irritated and dried ones. The lotion is produced with grapefruit and lemongrass oils, giving it a divine fresh scent while taking care of your body.

    The moisturising hand & body lotion is the perfect match for the UpCircle hand & body wash. The complementary scents have been designed with each other in mind and come in identical luxurious frosted glass bottles that will look great in any bathroom or kitchen.

    Bergamot
    UpCircle gives ingredients that would otherwise be discarded a second chance. The nourishing hand and body lotion is infused with residual water of organic bergamot fruits, which is a by-product of the juicing industry. Bergamot helps stimulate the renewal of skin cells and can also be beneficial for blemishes.

    Grapefruit & lemongrass oils
    The use of grapefruit and lemongrass essential oils gives a natural citrusy scent to the cream. These oils are known for reducing inflammations, and their fragrance can help with relaxation and stress reduction.

    How to use
    Apply the lotion as needed on your clean and dry skin. For your hands, use it throughout the day. To complete the routine, use after cleansing with the UpCircle hand and body wash with kiwi water.

    Packaging
    The vegan body lotion comes in a glass bottle with a plastic pump. Now, you may be thinking: plastic? Though we are committed to selling plastic-free products, for some products we make a small exception. For your next order keep the pump from your first bottle and select the refill option with aluminium cap.

    There is a plastic liner in the cap which makes the bottle leakproof and airtight. It also helps to preserve the product longer and protect the lid from the essential oils in the lotion. Essential oils can cause aluminium to oxidise (meaning it develops a black coating) which can spoil the product. At present, there is no suitable alternative. We recommend reusing the bottles as much as you can and if you do throw them away, recycle the plastic liner separately. The packaging is fully recyclable.

Over het merk

UpCircle

In 2016, UpCircle siblings Will and Anna quit their jobs and risked it all to nurture and grow their by-product beauty baby. The circular economy sits at the heart of what UpCircle does. UpCircle hints at ‘upcycling’, the process of making something better from things that already exist. The UpCircle mission is to leave the world better than they found it by transforming ingredients that would otherwise be discarded into natural, organic beauty products.

Each product in UpCircle’s range sources and rescues by-products from other industries – the food and drink industry in particular. The UpCircle story started with the idea of giving used coffee grounds a new lease of life. UpCircle now also gives chai tea spices and fruit stones a new beginning. At UpCircle nothing is safe from being UpCircled! Food ingredients can have powerful effects on the body - inside and out – so there’s an opportunity to create beauty products from food ingredients that are being discarded yet still have much to offer our skin.

UpCircle uses only the finest plant-based ingredients, and never test on animals. The packaging across UpCircle’s range is 99% plastic-free and they offer plastic-free refill options for the 1%.
