We are living in times when more and more people do care about what goes into the products we use on our skin. Likewise, the impact of these products on the environment is assesed more. Therefore the letter combination "BIO" on product packaging is occuring more often and is here to stay.
Jeanne en Provence releases a line of BIO products
Cosmetics manufacturer Jeanne en Provence has also expanded its range with two series of face (and body) care products - BIO Pomme or BIO Apple and BIO Amande or BIO Almond. The composition of the products contains a very high percentage of ingredients obtained from organic farming, as well as certified organic (Ecocert COSMOS Organic). We are talking about 100% organic origin and ~80% certified organic raw materials for some of the products.
BIO Pomme
Who are they for?
Apple line products will be suitable for people with normal-combination facial skin, which is also prone to rashes. The freshness of the apple will also be reflected in the facial skin after using these products.
Manufacturer: "Our certified (Ecocert COSMOS Organic) organic range with fresh apples is made for you! It makes the skin clean, glowing.
Known for its organic molecules with antioxidant properties, the apple is rich in trace elements and vitamin E. As part of our three-step beauty routine, we used the apple and its fruit, from pulp to pit. Take advantage of these ingredients for a glowing complexion and toned, blemish-free skin."
Range includes:
Shower gel
Manufacturer: "It gently cleanses the body every day and cares for your skin. Its gel-like texture and fine, creamy foam leave the skin clean and pleasantly scented. 98% raw materials of natural origin, 11% organic raw materials"
Us: The shower gel in combination with the warm shower steam will guide you to a cloud of bubbling apple scent. It will provide instant freshness without drying out the skin, and will cheer you up and set you in the mood for an energetic day.
Solid Shampoo
Manufacturer: "Specially formulated for oily hair. Jeanne en Provence solid shampoo (Cocmos Organic / Ecocert certified) is formulated with apple vinegar and green clay. It cares for your hair with every wash and leaves a spicy apple aroma. 100% natural ingredients, 19 % - of organic origin.
Us: The shampoo cleans the hair and scalp very well. A very small amount is needed as it lathers very well. Therefore, it will be enough for a long time. Will be suitable for people with very oily hair. Easy to use. For supporters of the Zero Waste lifestyle.
Face Cleansing Gel
Manufacturer: "Facial Cleansing Gel Formulated with Apple Water and Organic Glycerin, cleanses and softens skin for a more even and brighter complexion. 99% natural ingredients, 24% organic ingredients"
Us: The cleansing gel has a very pleasant consistency, which is not typical for gel products. It's thicker, "milkier" and feels softer than many other gels for oily skin because it doesn't lather as much. Therefore, it is less aggressive towards skin that may already be irritated. The gel will be suitable as a cleansing agent in the morning or in the evening, if it is not necessary to remove the residue of makeup. It may not cope with more permanent makeup.
Cleansing Lotion
Manufacturer: "Made with organic apple water, it cleanses the face for clear, glowing skin. Suitable for normal to combination skin. 99% natural ingredients, 20% organic ingredients"
Us: The lotion will be perfect for both morning and night use. In the morning it will cleanse the skin of the dirt that is accumulated during the night, as well as refresh it before applying next steps of skin care. In the evening it will cleanse the skin of the smallest traces of decorative cosmetics, leaving the skin clean. The biggest plus - the skin is clean, fresh, but not dried out.
Glow Serum
Manufacturer: "Specially formulated for normal and combination skin, with apple extract and apricot oil, rich in oleic acid, gently moisturizes the skin and leaves a soft apple scent. 100% raw materials of natural origin, 78% organic raw materials"
Us: The serum is great. It doesn't absorb immediately, but it contains 5 oils that provide long-lasting hydration as an extra step before your moisturizer. Skin feels toned, nourished, glowing and radiant all day long. Consumption is only 3 - 4 drops per use. The natural composition, the generous volume and the beautiful packaging are pleasing.
BIO Amande
Who are they for?
The range of almond products will be suitable for normal-dry skin. The gentle touch of almond milk will moisturize and nourish the skin, caring for people with dry and sensitive skin.
Manufacturer: "A true treasure of nature, rich in vitamins and minerals, almonds do wonders for the skin. We used almonds as part of our 3-step beauty routine: oil, butter, crushed shells, protein and milk. Maximize the benefits of this ingredient for hydrated, nourished and protected skin."
Range includes:

Moisturizing Face Balm

Us: If you love body butter consistency, then people with dry skin will love this face balm. It melts in the hands to a soft cream consistency, which is quickly absorbed into the skin, without leaving a greasy and sticky feeling on the face. Intensely moisturizing. In our opinion, innovation in the market.
Face Scrub
Manufacturer: "Specially formulated for normal and dry skin, Jeanne en Provence facial scrub (Cosmos organic / Ecocert certified) gently removes imperfections and dead skin cells thanks to microparticles from organic almond shells. The skin becomes soft and clean. 99% raw materials of natural origin, 57 % - organic components.
Us: The scrub contains quite a few abrasive particles. It is very good that they are not water-soluble, but crushed pods. In turn, this means that the scrubbing process should be gentle, as they are very abrasive. After use, the skin is soft and not dried out thanks to the oils and shea butter in the composition. The presence of oil on the skin is felt even after use. A good scrub for a good price.
A great holiday gift idea for anyone, but especially for greener lifestyle fans.
