THE NUXE ADVENT CALENDAR FOR BEAUTY QUEENS
The magnificent Advent calendar is back, to delight Nuxe lovers! Perfect for the run up to Christmas, with a daily dose of pleasure and beauty.
The 2020 edition has even more wonderful surprises in store. Its dazzling colours captivate at first sight, before revealing a brand-new or iconic Nuxe skincare product behind each of its 24 doors.
CHRISTMAS GIFT SETS
The perfect gift for yourself, your friends and your family: this year’s gift boxes by Nuxe are inspired by the energy of pop art. This chromatic explosion brings together a profusion of flowers, the intensity of vibrant halos and a precious touch of gold.
The sparkling beauty gift sets by Nuxe feature the brand’s most iconic skincare, bodycare and perfume products. Which ones are my favourites?
The Huile Prodigieuse Florale Gift Set (below, approx. CHF 46) delights the senses with its fresh and delicate Huile Prodigieuse Florale bouquet. It contains the Florale Scented Shower Gel, the Huile Prodigieuse Florale Dry Oil, the Crème Prodigieuse, the Multi-Correction Gel Cream and the Prodigieuse Florale Candle.
The Prodigiously Iconic Gift Set (below, approx. CHF 46) combines a skincare cream with the sensuality of Huile Prodigieuse and Rêve de Miel. It contains the Huile Prodigieuse Dry Oil, the Rêve de Miel Hand and Nail Cream, the Rêve de Miel Honey Lip Balm and the Prodigieuse Candle.
The Huile Prodigieuse Dry Oil has been one of my favourite beauty products for years. It contains six precious plant oils and nourishes, repairs and softens skin and hair. I mostly use it as a body oil. It leaves my skin soft and moisturized. And the summer holiday fragrance that envelops my body is simply unique.
The Nuxe Men Gift Set (below, approx. CHF 26) contains a trio of multi-purpose essentials for men who like to feel good and groomed: the Men Youth and Energy Revealing Anti-Aging Fluid, the Men Multi-Use Shower Gel and the Men Deodorant.
3 HONEY LIP BALMS FOR SOFT LIPS
This autumn, Nuxe introduces three amazing limited editions of the iconic honey lip balm Rêve de miel. With their rich amber hues, these three jars place the spotlight on the queens of the hive: the beauty queens.
I’ve been using this ultra-nourishing and repairing lip balm for years. Not only does it moisturize my lips, but it also serves as the perfect base for my lipstick. It contains honey, beeswax, propolis, precious botanical oils and shea butter for an intensely comforting effect on lips. Moreover, its luscious melt-away texture and natural scent with notes of grapefruit and lemon are amazing.
ANTI-AGEING SHEET MASKS BY RESULTIME
Resultime, one of my favourite French cosmetics brands which specialized in the science of collagen, creates amazing anti-ageing products that don’t cost a fortune. My favourite two products by Resultime are the Wrinkle Filler Serum Eye & Lip Contour as well as the Revitalising Detoxifying Mask.
This fall, Resultime takes inspiration from Asia and introduces two masks that provide an optimum boost for the face and eye area in just 10 minutes: a high-tech biocellulose tissue allows accelerated diffusion of a formula highly concentrated in plumping collagens for immediately smooth and radiant skin.
The Express Anti-Ageing Mask brings skin an instant shot of freshness and radiance. Its formula with plumping collagens, as concentrated as a serum and super-boosted in native collagen, diffuses its powerful benefits thanks to the high-tech biocellulose tissue. In 10 minutes, skin is plumper and smoother.
The high-tech biocellulose tissue of the Anti-Ageing Eye Patches contains plumping collagens to tone skin and smooth wrinkles. They provide immediate results on signs of fatigue thanks to the addition of caffeine, known for its ability to stimulate the skin’s micro-circulation, and cornflower water with soothing and decongesting properties. In just 10 minutes, the eye area is rehydrated and smoothed.
CROSS THE LIME WITH MERCI HANDY
Coco Rico, Hello Sunshine, Glitter Fever, Cross the Lime and Cherie Cherry: the colourful Mercy Handy range makes my heart beat faster. Using hand cleansing gel has never been more fun! The French company bottles up the most beautiful rainbows so you can take them everywhere with you. Their hand cleansing gels make your hands soft and delicately scented.
Children will be delighted to use the Unicorn Edition or Merci Handy’s Disney editions, e. g. Mickey & Friends or the Disney Princesses merry-go-round.
In Switzerland, you can order Merci Handy at Manor or Import Parfümerie.
A HAIR SERUM FOR INCREDIBLE SHINE
Created in 2012, the Christophe Robin regenerating line with prickly pear oil quickly became a hair must-have. Known throughout the Middle East since the dawn of time, this incredible oil is used by Berber women to protect the skin, heal scars and fight signs of aging. Its unique formula and extremely high concentration of essential fatty acids like omega-6s, omega-9s and vitamin E – twice that of argan oil – make it one of the richest plant oils for a stimulated scalp, regenerated roots and long-lasting protection for hair lengths.
The silicone-free Regenerating Serum With Prickly Pear Oil, the latest addition to the line, offers softness and shine to the hair. Composed of 94% natural-origin ingredients, this luxurious elixir combines botanical oils and butters, which intensely nourish the hair without weighing it down. It is color-safe and free of parabens, silicones, oxidants, mineral oils, and ammonia. It is vegan and not tested on animals. This multi-purpose serum (CHF 48.60) protects hair from heat and prevents split ends and frizz.
