A solid body moisturizer in Kate McLeod's signature stone format, scented with palo santo and vetiver — smoky, earthy, and deeply grounding in a way most body products don't dare to be. Palo santo, the sacred "holy wood" of South America, brings a warm resinous smoke on top. Vetiver — the root note that anchors so much of niche perfumery — deepens it into cool, damp earth. Together they create something meditative and unmistakably adult. The olfactive equivalent of a long walk through the woods after a rain.
The formula is the same as every Kate McLeod Body Stone: 100% waterless, built on a cocoa butter and plant oil base — sweet almond oil, apricot kernel oil, avocado oil — with no synthetic fragrance, no fillers, no water diluting the concentration. It melts on contact with warm skin and absorbs without residue, leaving a soft radiance that lasts. Clinically proven to boost moisture levels for up to 72 hours.
A limited edition made for the season's dry turn.
WHY IT'S SPECIAL
- Waterless, concentrated formula: no water means no dilution — one application contains more cocoa butter than an entire conventional bottle of body lotion.
- Clinically proven 72-hour hydration: not a marketing claim. Third-party tested.
- Palo santo and vetiver scent: smoky sacred wood on top, cool damp earth underneath. Grounding, meditative, and quietly unisex — the most editorial scent in the Kate McLeod lineup.
- Melts on contact: body heat activates the stone, which glides directly onto skin without any scooping or pumping. Absorbs fully, leaves no greasiness.
- 100% plant-based: cocoa butter, sweet almond oil, apricot kernel oil, avocado oil, essential oils. Nothing synthetic, nothing unnecessary.
- Plastic-free and Climate Label certified: waterless formulas save 65% of carbon emissions from transportation versus conventional lotion. Each refill generates 52% less waste than a plastic bottle.
- Limited edition: made in small batches for the fall season.
NOTES
Palo santo, vetiver — warm resinous smoke on top, cool damp earth underneath. Grounding, meditative, deeply unisex.
KEY INGREDIENTS
- Cocoa butter: rich in fatty acids and antioxidants, deeply nourishes and locks in moisture.
- Sweet almond oil: high in vitamin D, soothes irritation and supports the skin barrier.
- Apricot kernel oil: lightweight emollient that smooths texture without heaviness.
- Avocado oil: rich in vitamin E and oleic acid, supports elasticity and skin recovery.
- Palo santo essential oil: warm, resinous, faintly smoky — the sacred "holy wood" of South America.
- Vetiver essential oil: cool, damp, earthy — the anchor of the composition.
HOW TO USE
After a bath or shower, cup the stone between both palms for a few seconds to warm it. Glide directly across the skin — legs, arms, wherever you need it. Massage the oils in gently. No rinsing, no waiting. If the stone softens in warm weather, refrigerate for 30 minutes to reset. Store away from direct sunlight and heat.

THE BRAND
Kate McLeod started with a single question: what if a moisturizer contained nothing but what the skin actually needs? The Body Stone is the answer — a solid cocoa butter concentrate with no water, no synthetics, no plastic packaging. It melts on contact with skin and absorbs in seconds. The format is also the ritual: warming the stone between the palms, pressing it to the body, taking a moment. Kate McLeod makes its stones in one facility in the United States, sources packaging primarily from American suppliers, and donates 1% of revenue to environmental causes through 1% for the Planet.
