Nuxe Paris

“NUXE is made of the unique fusion of Nature, Efficacy and Luxury…It all started in 1957, when a Paris pharmacist with a fascination for phytotherapy and aromatherapy founded NUXE. In 1989, Aliza Jabès took over the brand and did her best to revive a pioneering cosmetological concept combining nature, health and beauty.”

If there were to be a definitive Nuxe Paris formula, Huile Prodigieuse is it. Huile Prodigieuse is a dry oil that touts 15% plant oils and the antioxidant power of vitamin E to leave skin all over (and hair) nourished, repaired and moisturized. Nuxe Paris Crème Fraiche de Beaute Suractivee promises to boost natural cell moisturizing for 24 hours with 8 plant milks and the “relaxing” benefit of 4 essential oils. Crème Fraiche also contains pomegranate, whose antioxidative powers have been all over the beauty press of late, to “stimulate water circulation into the epidermis”. Nuxe Paris Crème Nirvanesque blends blue lotus seeds, poppy seeds and althea root to promise relaxed skin and visibly lessened wrinkles.

According to the Nuxe Paris website, the name Nuxe is a “subtle combination between Nature and Luxe (Luxury). And according to the beauty press, Nuxe Paris has quite a few celeb devotees including: Catherine Deneuve, Catherine Zeta Jones, Courtney Cox Arquette, Isabelle Adjani, Jennifer Garner, Jennifer Aniston, Kyra Sedgwick, Liv Tyler, Rebecca Romijn Stamos, Sarah Jessica Parker, Sofia Coppola and Uma Thurman.
