Nuxe Skincare

Heya, I have been on the hunt for new skincare products as I felt my skin was just not looking its best maybe its the winter to spring transition... here's hoping!

As I have been on a TIGHT budget over the last year there has been no splurging on products... however my skin does need some TLC...so the hunt for the perfect skin care began.


During one of my regular visits to my local pharmacy, my beady eyes spotted 3 for 2 offers on most of their skincare. As I also had a voucher left over from Christmas, I decided it was the perfect chance for me to make some purchases.




The products are not cheap. Creme Prodigieuse Enriche €23.39, Creme Prodigieuse Nuit €24.90 & Merveillance Serum €40.69. However they are nowhere near as pricey as Sisley, a brand who also uses plant extract philosophy. (Just remembering a splurge at a Sisley counter some time ago... beautiful products but my bank balance ahhhhh)

Nuxe is a brand which has been on my radar for some time, I really like the idea behind this brand... Nature and Luxury (Luxe) in French hence the name Nuxe. On their website it describes the products as a unique blend of nature, performance and sensuality, what more do you want from skin care???





About the products individually, I have not had them long enough to do full review however my first impressions are that they feel really luxurious and smell amazing... if you like plant extract scents.

The night cream comes in a glass jar (as do most night creams) which I find can be bit messy and wasteful - enter my trusty little plastic spoon- problem solved.

As you will notice I chose products on the moisturising side of things as I had recently inherited a dermalogica cleanser (thanks Emma much appreciated).

Finally a big shout out to the lady who served me in my local Unicarepharmacy, she was super helpful and she also gave me a load of samples... I salute you!



So have you tried Nuxe products? What are your favourites?

Take Care.
