The Acadian Forest Moisturizer Story

This rich, refreshing moisturizer features our signature woodsy blend of essential oils that evokes a walk in the indigenous forest of Nova Scotia. 

A little goes a long way & it gradually sinks in leaving skin smooth & not greasy. We use it to moisturize all body parts on big & little people, & even to tame unruly hair!😊 

The cream is beautifully boxed with a bonus mini bar and the lotion is in an amber glass pump bottle. Both are wonderful for gifting or as a personal treat for your skin.
