Organic in my bathroom – Lotus & Bouche Cousue

Organic in my bathroom

I will present some of the brands that I use at the moment, so that you have a general idea of ​​its values ​​and the products that I know/use for each brand.

The body

We start with the shower and body care! At the moment, a big crush on the Coslys brand.

The Coslys brand: created 15 years ago in Somloire (Pays de Loire) the philosophy of this brand is to combine efficiency and respect for people and nature and offers 100% French products. Today, this brand specializes in care and hygiene and offers organic products for the whole family. Coslys favors partnerships with local companies to reduce the carbon footprint. Obviously the brand’s products do not contain any of these products: MIT (methylisothiazolinone), phenoxyethanol, paraben, oil from petroleum (vaseline, paraffin, etc.), silicone, EDTA, BHT, GMOs, derivatives of dead animals, etc. . and the fragrances are 100% natural. Finally, Coslys is a founding member of the Cosmebio association and adheres to One Voice and Cruelty Free.

My favourites:

• The body scrub: 98.5% of natural origin, this scrub based on sweet almond, arnica, rice powder and hazelnut oil is gentle enough to be used twice a week, but very effective thanks to fine particles of rice powder and salt. I’ll spare you the details on the crazy sweet almond smell, bliss!
• Body care is very rich (sweet almond, arnica, shea butter, aloe vera, hazelnut oil), which is perfect for both winter and summer. it penetrates quickly and sincerely one application each is enough to keep the skin hydrated, without crocodile skin the next morning! After depilation too, it soothes and nourishes perfectly, in short you will have understood that I intend to use it until the last drop!
• hand cream perfectly softens the skin, I use it twice a day on average.

The face

The brand : Oxalia draws the virtues of its products from flowers, plants and minerals in order to offer moisturizing, purifying and anti-aging ranges. The brand only offers organic care for women and men, but also sun protection and slimming care.

• Cleansing milk: Regarding my face, I also use organic products. As I shared with you on Instastory, I had to avoid water on my face for 7 days. I took the opportunity to change my make-up removal routine and used the cleansing milk Cozy velvety what made me know the Belvira Institute, since it sells them in Lyon. I saw quite a change in 5 days! Much less redness and imperfections. I who have always considered water as the only real cleanliness solution, I might as well tell you that I was as surprised as I was delighted!
• The purifying mask: to treat my combination skin I do purifying and rebalancing masks twice a week. This mask brings together very well the products that I like to use, namely green clay, hazelnut oil, witch hazel water and bamboo powder, a perfect cocktail for my skin!

Makeup

Regarding my make-up, I have already been using products from the So bio etic brand for a few months:

The brand So’Bio Etic : The brand belongs to the Léa Nature group. The brand’s products are composed of at least 10% organic ingredients and 98% of natural origin. They also meet the Cosmébio charter, and obviously we don’t find sulphate, benzophenone, BHA, paraben, silicone, ethylhexylcinnamate, triclosan, phenoxyethanol, methylisothiazolinone (MIT). The brand is a member of “1% for the planet” which means that it donates 1% of its turnover to environmental projects each year.

My favourites:

• The BB cream 5 in 1: 99% natural ingredients, coverage worthy of a foundation, a natural finish and integrated care, since this BB cream contains pomegranate oil, an excellent antioxidant. It is ideal for problem skin since it is covering without smothering. I buy shade 01 and 02 to make a mixture that best matches my shade. Especially since the price is so affordable that two BB creams from this brand cost around 20 euros.
