Throughout my time testing out and reviewing skincare, L'Occitane has always been one of my dream brands to work with because I've always been such a big fan of their hand creams for saving my dry nurse hands so I was over the moon when they reached out and offered to send me some goodies to try out and review for you all. So let's give you all an introduction to the products I've been giving a review of very soon.
L'Occitane
L'Occitane have been creating beauty, skincare and well-being products since 1976 with an intention to share nature's wonders of the world. It was founded by Olivier Baussan where he sold essential oils at local markets. They believe that beauty goes beyond what the eye can see, from seed to skin it's a holistic approach. L'Occitane strive to create positive change for the world and inspire others to do the same. They really are amazing in all that they do and how much they give back, they even feature how they give back to all different charities in the UK on their website. L'Occitane are very eco conscious with them offering eco-refill packaging on some products as well as offering a recycling service at all of their stores in the UK and when you bring in your empty L'Occitane products, you get 10% off your purchase that day.
Immortelle Divine Creme
The Immortelle Divine Creme is a complete anti-ageing face cream that is designed to fight visible signs of ageing, fine lines and wrinkles while helping to revive your skin's youthfulness and luminosity. It's filled with Immortelle super extract and Immortelle essential which helps to increase your skin's density, boost collagen and protect your skin from aggressors such as pollution. The Immortelle Divine Creme is L'Occitane is their number one, best selling product.
I really love the packaging the Immortelle range comes in, it's so luxurious and looks gorgeous left out on your dresser. It's £80 for a 50ml jar which is more on the pricier side for a facial moisturiser but I don't mind investing in skincare if the products work for my skin. I must say the scent of the Immortelle products is just next level, it is a noticeable scent when you open/apply it so it's something to be mindful if you prefer unscented products. I have pretty dry skin year round but it's worse so at this time of year seen as it's really cold and I find that I don't need a whole lot of the Immortelle Divine Creme to moisturise my face as a little goes a long way. I really love that it leaves my skin with a satin feel to my skin cause it just melts into your skin with leaving it feeling greasy or like there's a layer sat on your skin.
Immortelle Overnight Reset Eye Serum
I've recently gotten into eye serums this year so I was really excited when I spotted that the Immortelle Overnight Reset eye serum had arrived on my doorstep. This serum helps to reduce all visible signs of fatigue to help your eyes look fresh and rested every morning, it also helps to reduce the appearance of puffiness and dark circles whilst also smoothing fine lines and wrinkles. It's filled with marjoram, acmella oleacera, immortelle sap-like extract, botanical extract and caffeine, all of which helps to smooth fine lines and wrinkles, soothes your skin from any redness or tightness, as well as helping with signs of fatigue and tackling dark circles and puffiness.
I really love the packaging of this Immortelle Overnight Reset eye serum because you can actually see the Immortelle oil extract golden bubbles suspended in the serum so once you massage the serum into your skin, they burst and help to stimulate your skins microcirculation and increase collagen synthesis to help give you smoother, firmer skin under your eyes. From a short amount of time I've been using it, I really like that it's not a product for under eyes that you have spend ages rubbing into your skin. All you have to do is gently massage it in around your eyes and it leaves a satin like finish, perfect for popping your concealer on top.
Almond Shower Oil
I'm completely new to trying shower oils so I was really interested to see how the Almond Shower Oil worked. I was completely in love with the scent as its sweet almonds and vanilla which is perfect for any time of year. It's their award winning shower oil winning various different beauty awards. The L'Occitane shower oils are a great alternative to shower gels for those with more sensitive, delicate skin. This Almond Shower Oil helps to preserve your skins softness and leave it feeling nourished and supple. When the oil comes into contact, it transforms into a milky veil that helps to cleanse your skin. I do have the days that I get a bit girl lazy and forget to moisturise after a shower so I love that something like the Almond Shower Oil helps leaving your skin feeling nourished and moisturised so on the days I forget too, this shower oil already has done it.
Almond Milk Veil
The Almond Milk Veil is enriched with almond oil and almond protein from Provence and almond milk to help moisturise, smooth and firm your skin whilst also giving your skin a radiant look. It's such a good partner for the Almond Shower Oil, they both elevate the other product. I find the scent of almonds is lighter in the Milk Veil in comparison to the shower oil. Because I have drier skin, I usually tend to go for body butter as their thicker consistency but I was pleasantly with how lightweight yet nourishing this Milk Veil is. This is going to be really nice during the hotter months as well because of how lightweight and non-sticky the lotion is.
