The rough with the smooth

The sculptor Rodin may have favoured raw and exaggerated textures, but his namesake cream is as smooth as polished bronze.

Rodin Crema hand and body cream ($80) is a luxurious blend of essential oils with notes of jasmine and neroli. It’s surprisingly light in texture and helps restore balance, moisture and luster to winter-pummeled skin. —Athena Tsavliris
