• Nine skincare actives
  • Cuffed scent
  • Moisture locks in 24h
  • Body + hand, day + night

What it is

A daily body cream from Laurel Bath House, a Los Angeles house that hand-fills small-batch fragrance and bath products, scented with Cuffed: sun bleached leather, tobacco, and raspberry.. The same nine-actives base as the unscented In The Buff, minus the quiet.

What it does

Moisturizes body and hands with a formula that is light enough for mornings and rich enough for the last step at night, and locks in moisture and scent for over 24 hours using the brand's bio-derived scent technology. pH balanced, built on nine actives with calming certified-organic botanicals: calendula, chamomile, and lavender. EWG Verified, no parabens, cruelty-free and vegan.

Who it's for

Anyone who wants their moisturizer and their fragrance in one step. If your skin runs reactive, the fragrance-free In The Buff is the same cream without the scent.

How to use

How much: A palmful per area. A little more on dry spots.

1. Massage into clean, dry skin after showering.
2. Cover body and hands, working it in fully.
3. Let it sink in for a minute before dressing.

Where it fits: Day or night, after showering. Light enough under clothes in the morning, rich enough as the last step at night.

About the brand

Laurel Bath House

Functional fragrance, made to be lived in.

Laurel Bath House is an independent fragrance house. Their thing is functional fragrance — scent designed to be part of your day, not a special-occasion spray. The Layer Packs are their signature: two eau de parfums built to be worn on their own or layered into one blend.

Most niche fragrance asks you to commit to one expensive bottle and hope. Laurel's Layer Packs do the opposite — two full 50 mL bottles that teach you how to layer as you go. It's the most approachable way into real perfumery we've found, from a maker we'd hand you in person.

Bath & body questions, answered

How do I use this?

Follow the How to use section above. Most bath and body products are simple, but order matters — scrubs before shaving, oil on damp skin.

Is this safe for sensitive skin?

Patch test on your inner arm first and wait 24 hours. If a product is heavily fragranced and your skin is reactive, use less, or reach for a fragrance-free option.

How long will one bottle or jar last?

It depends on the product, but a little usually goes further than you think — start with less than feels necessary.
