The rise of luxury organic skincare and the French brand leading the way

By Melanie Kruger   |  

When it comes to taking care of our complexions, we’re more conscious of the ingredients in the products we buy than ever before, with an increasing number of consumers turning to natural and organic skincare choices in a bid to avoid the unnecessary chemical nasties that many lines contain and prioritise their long-term health.

Add to that the growing consciousness surrounding the importance of choosing green and ethically produced ranges over those which come at the price of a high carbon footprint, with more consumers than ever taking steps to keep their own environmental impact to a minimum, and the beauty world has undergone something of a transformation in recent years, with many brands rethinking their entire approach to skincare.

One brand which has always been clear on its mission is Nuxe – a French luxury skincare label that has been painstakingly formulating some of the finest skincare products since its launch, and has fast become a favourite in bathrooms around the world. Founded by Aliza Jabès – a pioneer in natural-origin cosmetology, its latest range – Nuxe Organics – is natural, vegan and organic – and has already won the attention of socially conscious consumers, worldwide.

Known for cult products including Huile Prodigieuse and its Reve de Miel Lip Balm, Nuxe is no stranger to harnessing the benefits of natural ingredients. Its latest new-generation, certified organic skincare range heralds the beginning of a new era for the brand, in a celebration of the omnipotence of nature. Certified organic and packed with naturally-derived, active ingredients, its potential has been further amplified thanks to green technologies, with 100% natural scents making for a sumptuous and soothing skincare experience each and every morning and evening.

Nuxe Organic Skincare

Priding itself on being a socially responsible brand, Nuxe carefully considers all aspects of the life-cycles of its products, from formulation to packaging – so it’s little wonder that its admirably ethical approach has won it a legion of loyal fans worldwide.

Renowned for providing the highest-quality, certified organic skincare, it strongly believes that nature is the best open-air laboratory there is. All of the brand’s ingredients are diverse and naturally sourced, and have been carefully selected to ensure that the complex needs of all skin-types is sufficiently met, and exceeded.

The active ingredients in each product are specifically derived from green technologies, using the extraction or processing method that is best suited to each individual plant. The result is that Nuxe is able to realise and harness its potential with minimal environmental impact, nourishing the skin without unnecessary cost to the health of our planet.

So, it ticks all of the right boxes when it comes to social responsibility – but what else do we need to know about the brand’s new Nuxe Organic range?

Nuxe Organic Skincare

Well, for starters, it smells and feels incredible on the skin – but the effects have been more carefully thought-out than those of your average skincare range, making your morning and evening skincare routines feel more like a luxurious sensual experience than any kind of chore.

The textures and scents chosen for the Nuxe Organic range are designed to inspire emotion within the user, awakening the senses and evoking a pleasurable and relaxing feeling as you apply each product to the skin. The formula of each scent has a unique, 100% natural-origin composition, with buttery-soft textures that melt effortlessly into the skin.

The range features ten new products in total, each beautifully packaged and offering a plethora of benefits that are designed to transform the look, feel and health of your skin. And suffice to say, they look and feel just as incredible as you’d expect, making a welcome addition to our skincare cabinets here at LLM.
