| Verdict | The world's most TikTok-ed body cream. Cupuaçu butter for deep hydration, guarana + caffeine for temporary skin-tightening, açaí for antioxidant cameo. The scent — Cheirosa 62 — is the real product; the cream is the excuse. | Tracta is one of Brazil's more interesting drugstore brands — affordable, decent science, no marketing fluff. The Creme Hidratante Noturno is a genuinely minimal night cream: niacinamide for tone and barrier, glycerin for hydration, cetyl palmitate and dimethicone for occlusion, vitamin E for antioxidant work. R$45 ($9) for a fragrance-free, alcohol-free, paraben-free night cream that actually does what it claims. |
