NUXE OverviewA little touch of luxury today from French brand; NUXE. I have been a fan of NUXE for a very long time now, their body range is to die for and their skin care is filled with highly charged ingredients to really get your skin in to tip-top condition. With their luxurious, rich formulas featuring long lasting exotic scents, I wish I could use their body products everyday.

Two products I do use on nearly a daily basis are their Prodigieux Le Parfum and their Huile Prodigieuse Multi-Usage Dry Oil.

I fell in love with the Huile Prodigieuse Multi-Usage Dry Oil in the summer time as I looked to it for a hit of moisture without that heavy lotion feeling. As the product is a dry oil it sinks into the skin easily without leaving behind that greasy feeling you might think you would get from using an oil all over the body

Fast forward into winter and I am on my third bottle of this beautiful dry oil. As suggested by the name, this oil really is multi-use, I use it all over the body to instantly relieve dry legs, arms, and hands, I also use it lightly in my hair to give a glossy finish to brittle ends.

After using the Huile Prodigieuse Multi-Usage Dry Oil for a few months and being intoxicated with the scent of it, imagine my excitement when NUXE released their Prodigieux Le Parfum at the beginning of summer last year. I had signed up to the waiting list for this one on FeelUnique and made the order the moment I could lay my virtual hands on it.

With top notes of Orange Blossom, Bergamot and Tangerine it is an unusual choice of fragrance for me as I usually like darker scents such as the Giorgio Armani Code Femme eau de parfum. Prodigieux Le Parfum’s base notes of Rose, Gardenia and Magnolia make it a truly girly fragrance but the heart notes of Vanilla and Coconut Milk give it a warmth that completes the sophisticated, luxurious scent.

I did wear it religiously throughout summer, layering it up with the dry oil for maximum NUXE oomph. However much to my disappointment, it doesn’t last very well on my skin. I find that I can get a good four hours wear out of it before the scent fades away; not great for everyday wear. I now wear this fragrance if I am only going out for a short while, I am not the sort of person to carry around a glass bottle in her handbag. It would just spell disaster for me really! Other than the staying power, this scent really has to be one of my favourites of all time.

I would highly recommend many of the NUXE products, my other favourites from their body range include their Gel Douche Fondant Fondant Shower Gel and Lait Fluide Corps Hydratant 24h 24hr Moisturizing Body Lotion. It also has to be said that their skincare, including the Nuxellence Jeunesse Youth and Radiance Revealing Fluid is divine, not to mention their Rêve de Miel Ultra Nourishing Lip Balm!

So tell me, have you tried any of the NUXE products? Do you think they are worth the splurge?
