A month ago, KBF was hired to engage some influencers and bloggers for NUXE, a French skincare brand that is sold in SaSa. I first used NUXE when I was one of the judges for the Harper’s BAZAAR Beauty Awards a few years ago, and gave it high marks for its gentle efficacy on my skin. It is most pleasant to use, and a brand i’d return to for its reasonable price point.

Founded by Parisian mother, wife and entrepreneur Aliza Jabès based on her passion on the infinite power of plants; NUXE started off as a small, natural R&D skincare laboratory based in the City of Light in the early 90s.

When Aliza was a child, she was fascinated by the endless bounty and inspiration of Nature, and was further convinced at a young age by her research pharmacist father on the major therapeutic discoveries that originate from the world of plants.

She decided to create a brand of natural cosmetics that combined the unique concept of Nature and Luxury – fundamentals that have guided, inspired and nurtured the brand’s philosophy through the years. Aliza’s urban roots mirrored her own desire in having products that do that they promise to without an endless skincare routine, and having textures and fragrances that appeal to the senses without compromising on results. The outcome is a range of essential must-haves with a touch of glamour.

In 2002, she opened her first NUXE spa, 32 rue Montorgueil, in the historical centre of Paris to give the brand a place in which Beauty and Well-being, Emotions and Sensations are expressed.

Today, the NUXE R&D lab is the biggest independent natural cosmetics laboratory in the heart of Paris. Each day, dozens of researchers apply cutting edge technologies to uncover the timeless secrets of plants sourced all over the world. The expertise of Nuxe laboratory is recognized for its innovation while keeping to Aliza’s philosophy to provide ultra-feminine skincare inspired by nature and based on fundamental truths born from pharmaceutical approach and adapted to cosmetic requirements.

NUXE arranged a creative activity for all guests that day. Due to the concept of how all their products are based on plants and nature, they prepared personalized sheets for us to put together our own petal art, complete with frames after.

NUXE Paris Launch @ Cantaloupe-8

Cult product Huile Prodigieuse® is a multi-purpose Dry Oil for face, body and hair. It has precious botanical oils (borage, sweet almond, St John’s wort, camellia, hazelnut, macadamia) and Vitamin E to nourish, repair and soften skin or hair. It contains no silicone and is free of mineral oils.

The sparkly shimmery bottle you see on the left is Huile Prodigieuse® Multi-Purpose Golden Shimmer Dry Oil. It provides the same but has an illuminating effect with pearly particles for subtle golden glitter. Very cool to apply to shoulders and arms for events or special occasions.
