Today is BASTILLE Day and
everyone who is French or loves France will be celebrating.
While most likely most will be sipping French champagne, rose wine or other great French wines, let us not forget the fabulous French beauty products that really make your beauty regimen so much easier! The four products featured below were all formulated in France!
Lipocils Expert Collector Edition , cosmetic expert since 1948–$60
Talika Lipocils Expert, $60 This best-selling eyelash conditioner boosts thickness, curl and natural pigmentation of eye fringe in just 28 days. The advanced Lipocils Expert formula is based on a balm originally created in 1948 by a Parisian nurse looking for soothing solutions for the burn victims she was treating. The balm she created helped heal their fragile eyelid skin—as well as dramatically improved the condition of their eyelashes.
Today’s brush-on version boasts a combination of active botanicals, including witch hazel, apple, nettle, horse chestnut and St. John’s wort—plus a medley of peptides and silk proteins. It is also paraben-free and dermatologist-tested.
Stevie Note: This is one of my most favorite French products. Talika is the savior of your lashes.
PAYOT – Pâte Grise l’Originale: Emergency anti-imperfections care– $22
Originally created in 1920 (and still the best pimple treatment I’ve ever tried!), this wildly popular overnight pimple paste treats, purifies and erases existing pimples. Active ingredients include Zinc Extract, which regulates oil production and deep cleans; Ichytol, a powerful antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and anti-infection agent; and Sweet Almond Extract, which calms inflammation and reduces redness.
Leonor Greyl Bamboo Shampoo – Leonor Greyl USA–$51
The idea for this cleanser was first conceived more than twenty years ago when Jean-Marie Greyl was sitting in his Parisian garden and noticed the roots of his bamboo plant growing horizontally, sprawling across neighboring plants. Taking a closer look, he saw how hardy and fast-growing the plant was, and he decided to extract its sap to add to a nourishing shampoo for damaged hair. This Bamboo Shampoo became one of the brand’s all-time bestsellers and is especially popular among the long-haired because it repairs and cares for fragile ends. Active ingredients include the bamboo marrow, which nourishes and detangles—plus silk proteins that protect and soften, and plant extracts that strengthen the hair fiber.
Stevie Note: I love Leonor Greyl products! They smell good and have lots of natural ingredients in them!
Hydra Serum – Nuestro Secreto Embryolisse Hydra-Serum, $35
This brand-new hydrator from one of my fave French brands and this new Hydra Serum will save your thirsty skin this summer. Packed with two different types of hyaluronic acid, this lightweight but potent formula goes to work in three ways: recharging the skin’s own natural water reservoir; optimizing water circulation and distribution between skin cells; and limiting water evaporation from the skin’s surface. After just one application, your skin will feel plump and supple—but not at all sticky/
Enjoy your Bastille Day! And have a sip of French wine for me!
