Melvita Botanical Gold Hydra-Perfecting Body Serum is the body care made for busy mornings: after the shower, two sprays are all it takes. It intensely hydrates and refines skin texture for softer, smoother and more radiant-looking skin. The two-phase texture, 70% water and 30% oil, sprays directly onto the skin and absorbs quickly, without stickiness or a greasy finish, so you can get dressed right away.

Key Benefits

  • Intense hydration: for normal to dry, dehydrated body skin.
  • Refined texture: helps reduce the look of rough patches and "strawberry legs".
  • Radiant, even look: skin looks smoother and more uniform day after day.
  • Fast-absorbing: light two-phase serum, not sticky, not greasy.
  • Simple routine: use it alone or before your body cream.

Key Ingredients

Pomelo AHAs gently exfoliate and refine skin texture. Organic chestnut leaf extract, the signature active of the Botanical Gold line, helps strengthen the skin barrier and intensely hydrates, while organic chestnut seed extract brings comfort and helps protect against dehydration. Shake well before use. The formula is certified organic and made in France.

Pair it with other body care from the Melvita collection.

How to Use

Shake Melvita Botanical Gold Hydra-Perfecting Body Serum well before use. After the shower, preferably on still-damp skin, spray it directly onto the body, then massage quickly until absorbed. Use it alone or before your body cream. In intense or prolonged sun exposure, such as at the beach, apply it in the evening. Not for the face.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I use Melvita Botanical Gold Hydra-Perfecting Body Serum?

Melvita recommends applying it after the shower, ideally on skin that is still damp. Shake the bottle, spray directly onto the skin, then massage quickly. It absorbs fast, so you can get dressed right after applying it.

Does Melvita Botanical Gold Hydra-Perfecting Body Serum replace a body cream?

It can be used alone, or under a body cream to boost hydration. Melvita pairs it with the Botanical Gold Hydra-Perfecting Body Cream: the serum refines skin texture, then the cream adds lasting comfort for dry skin.

Can I use Melvita Botanical Gold Hydra-Perfecting Body Serum in the sun?

Melvita states the serum is not photosensitizing, so it can be used during the day in normal conditions, such as in town with moderate sun. In case of intense or prolonged sun exposure, like a day at the beach, the brand advises applying it in the evening.

Is Melvita Botanical Gold Hydra-Perfecting Body Serum suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes. Melvita says its gentle formula suits sensitive skin. It is designed for the body only and should not be applied to the face. The texture is a light two-phase mix of water and oil that leaves no greasy finish.
