We tested it for you: Herbivore cult products
With their colorful bottles and mouth-watering natural fragrances, it didn't take long for Herbivore products to find their way into the bathrooms of our budding testers. Used over several days (and even months!), we tell you what we thought of them.
Lapis Facial Oil Huile Visage Anti-ImperfectionsClara Junior Artistic Director
Your skin type? Combination, sensitive and prone to blackheads on the T-zone.
The verdict? I was first attracted by the deep blue of this beautiful oil and luckily, it's perfectly suited to my skin type! It's a very light oil, very pleasant to use. I apply a small amount in the morning (2-3 drops), after my usual routine, and let it penetrate for a few minutes before putting on my make-up. In the evening, after my double cleansing, I like to apply a little more for more intense hydration. What I love about it is thatit is both purifying and soothing, which is rare enough to be worth mentioning! This dual action restores my skin's balance, leaving it smooth on the cheeks without greasing the T-zone. A lovely discovery that sits proudly in my bathroom!
Emerald Radiance Face Oil, Fanny Communications Director
Your skin type? Dry and very sensitive.
The verdict? A real "coup de coeur" for this emerald colour oil super-light yet highly moisturizing based on hemp seed oil and squalane. I apply it every morning after my day cream for an immediate plump effect! It leaves my skin glowy, super luminous. It's also a perfect base for everyday make-up!
Coco Rose Body ScrubJuliette Founder of Oh My Cream !
My verdict? I'm an unconditional fan of sugar and vegetable oil scrubs: the sugar exfoliates very effectively, and the vegetable oils leave the skin satin-smooth (allowing me to skip the moisturizing step after the shower, and being a particularly lazy person, this suits me fine!) As for the scent, the gourmand coconut oil has been infused with rose absolute: an atypical combination... but ultra addictive!
Bakuchiol Serum Alternative to RetinolMargaux E-Commerce Director
Your skin type? Normal to dry and sometimes sensitive. It's often dehydrated and I get the first wrinkles.
The verdict? Over the past 1 or 2 years, my gentle dehydration lines have given way to honest first (real) wrinkles. I try not to remove them at all costs, to accept them for what they say about me and remind me in the morning: I'm 34, I've got a baby and, like everyone else, I've already got 3 confinements under my belt! But I'm still looking to age gracefully, and so I do what I can to help my skin... So that's it, I've added an anti-aging serum to my routine! And I must say, this one is a real success: a slightly dense gel texture that I take the time to massage in, leaving no feeling of tightness (thanks to the Tremella mushroom, which intensely moisturizes and retains water in my skin). When I switch to the cream, the results are immediately visible- it's amazing! After the rest of my routine and a touch of make-up, my wrinkles have clearly faded. After several weeks, I've even noticed that my forehead wrinkles and those that used to betray my smiles are now less pronounced.
Prism Exfoliating Glow FacialLinda Traffic Manager
Your skin type? Combination and dehydrated.
Your verdict? It's been in my bathroom for 1 month and it's just incredible... It really makes my skin brighter and softer. After several weeks, my skin is clearer, the little pimples disappear and the glow is there ! Not to mention its super-pretty rainbow jar, which almost makes me want to use it every day... Plus, there's a free sample of Lapis Facial Oil in every jar! And I have to say, this combo makes the result even more stunning.
