When I try to say it all, this is what it looks like :)
- Our treatments contain no preservatives, no petroleum derivatives, no fragrances
- Our treatments are 100% active because they are made up of 100% vegetable and essential oils (no emulsifiers, no water - which is useless - and no chemical agents): we therefore end up with pure food adapted to the skin (of the face or body depending on the product) and entirely assimilated by it (our cosmetics should be edible... in any case, ours are!)
- Each ingredient has a reason for being and contributes to regaining a youthful and healthy appearance: in the serum, our star, we have carotenes to form collagen, natural vitamin E to prevent skin aging and essential fatty acids (essential because the skin cannot form them) to nourish the ceramides on the surface of our epidermis and thus prevent dehydration.
- essential oil of rose, neroli or geranium to name but a few allow the preservation of our care while being notorious and noble anti-wrinkles
My favorites, or "musts," of the season:
- my essential trio , or my 3 treatments that make up my morning and evening beauty ritual: I cleanse with the cleansing oil (which is also a superb makeup remover that nourishes the eyelashes) and I rinse with a washcloth, already, I feel my skin breathe better without having dried it out, on the contrary, one of the components of this oil already contributes to enriching the collagen; then I spray my floral water (we could also use a pure water spray, if there is a shortage of floral water! the case at the moment!!) and I apply my serum while the skin is damp... that's it! no need for more
- Before taking my shower, I oil my body with Macadam & Camomile , then under water, I only rinse it gently with a washcloth, I only use the soap for the "discreet" areas and here I am already with soft and well-hydrated skin after swimming (whereas it could itch, even sting before); I will use this massage oil for my baby
- I always have my vanilla shea butter with me (in my handbag and near the sofa!), my "little pot of butter" (as Julie Snyder put it :), I make a mask at least once a week with it (30 seconds to melt, 5 minutes of application for a result worthy of collagen-type masks); also, in front of the TV, I coat my feet, legs, hands (thus saved from eczema), I nourish my lips with it all day long (so here is my gloss!), I can also nourish the ends of my hair with it and I pamper my belly with it, mixed with body oil, to promote the elasticity of my pregnant skin and prevent stretch marks
- Once or twice a month, I do my exfoliator (3-4 minutes before showering) to dislodge dead skin, remove blackheads, and give my skin a bath of oxygen.
... PS morning and evening cleansing and regular homemade facial care are Jocelyne's secrets to youth, as she has only worn natural products and serums for 22 years!
For the home this season, my must-haves (and perfect gifts, at $17) are:
- the purifying and "laundry" formula (which I will change the name to "washing"): one stays in the bathroom (I regularly put 2 drops in the toilet bowl to create a fresh scent while disinfecting; the other is next to my sink for washing floors and counters (just before the visitor arrives, we put 2-3 drops on our rag and we pass it over the surfaces to have an inviting scent!; I also make my fridge with one or the other formula, these mixtures of pure essential oils are powerful antibacterials that nothing can resist!
- THE SCENT OF CHRISTMAS : an instant favorite for all those who breathe it, a return to our childhood, a dive into our forests where it is good to breathe, in short, an atmospheric antiseptic that makes us happy
- our soaps, Charlot for the little ones, Unicorn for Patchouli lovers, Man to remind you of the freshness of Irish springs (we offer you their respective legends, beautiful stories to read to your children)
And for my man? Luc perfected the scent of the men's serum, developed at the request of my boyfriend when he saw Jocelyne for the first time, realizing the long-term effects of the serum: "I want some too! It's not true that I'm going to point my finger at you and watch you get younger when I'm going to get old!". So we all, children and adults, are immersed in 100% natural products! Even my Louis travels with his soap, knowing after a few unfortunate experiences that when he uses an industrial soap (which smells strongly of fragrance or is full of triclosan), his hands swell up immediately, become so sensitive that he can't move them, they crack until they bleed! (I then either took my serum to relieve it, or shea butter to treat it).
Now you're all well informed! Don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have here. If I can't answer them, I'll ask my mentors and experts with decades of experience!
And thank you for your testimonials, how good it is to read you: " In any case, since I've been taking your products, I know that I'm only using good ingredients and it makes me feel so good and to see that I'm no longer taking chemical products. Thank you Jacinthe for opening my eyes..." photo, Marïphotographie
