IS YOUR SKIN MISBEHAVING…NUXE IT!
As of today, my search for the perfect light serum is complete. I have been testing an old favorite of make up artists - Nuxe's Creme Fraiche Cream and I can honestly say this cream ROCKS.
The smell is divine, like a summer garden after rain. It's easily absorbed making it perfect for our highly anticipated hot summer, as I can't stand creams that leave a grimy residue on my skin that only worsens in hot weather.

It's as good for your hair as a bottle of chilled rosé on a summer's day is for the soul.
Nuxe is all about the wonderful effects plants have on the skin. It has remained a family business spearheaded by Aliza Jabes who bought the company from her father, a research pharmacist, 20 years ago. They are an independent company, with independent labs. The products are tested on children over 3 years of age (who said child labor was a bad thing?) and their sleb fans include Monica Bellucci, Vanessa Paradis and Eva Herzigova.
