We spend hundreds of dollars and countless minutes caring for the skin on our face. Then we put basic lotion on the rest of us.
At LAKE+MAIN, we started asking ourselves: why?
Your body deserves thoughtful skincare, too. Not necessarily the exact same products you use on your face, but the same level of attention to ingredients, formulation, and how the product actually works on your skin.
That thinking is what led to VELVET Body Serum.
VELVET Is Like NOURISH For Your Body
If you already know and love NOURISH Four-Season Moisturizing Serum, you'll recognize the philosophy behind VELVET immediately.
NOURISH is our bestselling facial moisturizing serum: a carefully balanced blend of oils, botanicals, hydrosols and nourishing ingredients designed to keep skin soft, hydrated and resilient.
VELVET was formulated with that same philosophy—but specifically for your body.
In fact, VELVET and NOURISH share 11 ingredients, including some of the botanical ingredients that have made NOURISH such a longtime favourite.
But we didn't simply take a facial formula and make more of it.
Your body has different needs.
VELVET was formulated to deliver rich, lasting moisture to the skin below your neck while still feeling light enough that you'll actually want to use it every day.
So, What Makes It A Serum?
This is where the formulation gets interesting.
VELVET contains both oils and hydrosols, but there's more happening than simply combining the two.
VELVET goes through several phases of emulsification, bringing the oils and hydrosols together in a balanced way so that the formula can support hydration through both the upper and deeper layers of the skin.
The result is a product that feels rich as you apply it, but absorbs beautifully rather than leaving you coated in a layer of greasy oil.
And that distinction matters.
Because the best moisturizer isn't necessarily the richest one. It's the one you actually want to use.
The ritual you'll look forward to
One of our favourite things about VELVET is how it feels.
As one customer put it:
“I love body oil but the velvet body serum feels like silk.”
Another described it simply as:
“Non greasy... Very hydrating!!”
That's exactly the experience we were after.
VELVET gives you the nourishment you expect from a rich body product, without the heavy feeling that can make you want to put your clothes on as quickly as possible afterwards.
A little goes a long way. Apply it after bathing, ideally while your skin is still slightly damp, and massage it in.
The result: soft, supple, hydrated skin with a subtle glow.
If you love NOURISH, meet VELVET
NOURISH has always represented something important to us: good skincare doesn't need to be complicated to be thoughtful.
VELVET carries that same idea below the neck.
It's not a body lotion dressed up as something more sophisticated. And it's not simply NOURISH in a bigger bottle.
It's body skincare formulated with the same care, ingredient philosophy and attention to balance that went into our facial products.
Because your face shouldn't be the only part of you getting the good stuff.
