I don't know if you are familiar with the Pure Nature Organic skincare product series by Oriflame. Oriflame currently offers 4 series of Pure Nature Organic products to match your own skin type. These are:
* Pure Nature Organic Tea Tree & Rosemary for skins that suffer from acne
* Pure Nature Organic Acai & Pomegranate for antioxidant skincare for all skin types
* Pure Nature Blueberry & Lavender for calming and soothing effect for sensitive skin types
* Pure Nature Aloe Vera & Arnica for hydration and mattifing effect for combination skin types
**all links are from the greek website**
I have tried products from all 4 categories and I liked them all. Today I'll present you the Pure Nature Blueberry & Lavender products.
Packaging/Application
Face wash and toner contain 150ml of product each. Face cream contains 75ml of products. As you can see face wash and face cream come in an opaque packaging whereas face toner comes in a transparent one.

Pros
+ 100% organic extracts. 100% natural cosmetics are not always the best option because they contain ingredients that may cause allergic reaction to some people. My personal opinion is that taking the active ingredients from plants and making skincare products is better. Especially if they are organic developed.+ very affordable. I bought these products as a set for €14.90.
+ nice smell. Sometimes skincare products with natural ingredients have a "fake natural" scent, this is not the case here. The smell is light and seems natural.
+ they calm my skin and reduce redness.
Cons
- parabens. I really wish these were paraben-free. Luckily Oriflame is already working on a paraben-free skincare line, I can't wait to try it! :DFeeling
I have been using all three products for about 4 weeks and I can say that they are perfect for normal, sensitive and even combination skin. The face wash cleans the skin and leaves it fresh but not too dry. The toner refreshes and removes any oiliness and the face cream hydrates and calms the skin without being greasy.
Last but not least
Oriflame does not test on animals.Summary: 4/5
These products have helped my skin to calm after summer and when I use them everyday they reduce redness.
Where can you find it/Cost
- You can buy it from Oriflame distributors worldwide. Although I usually only buy Oriflame products for myself and my family, if you live in Athens and you want to buy from Oriflame leave me a commend or e-mail and I'd be happy to help.- Prices vary from time to time so keep an eye open for sales or gift sets like the one I bought. Since Christmas period is close I'm sure you'll find some great deals!
Have you used any products from the Oriflame Pure Nature line? Would you consider using one? Do you have a skin care product you can't live without? If you do, I'd love to know which one it is!!!
Disclaimer: I am an Oriflame distributor. Links are not affiliate links. Products are bought with my own money. Nobody pays me to use or write about these products. This is my honest opinion.
Pass..προτιμώ το La Roche Posay καθαριστικό μου!! :))
ReplyDelete@Κερασία: δεν είναι λίγο "δυνατό"; Μου έχει κολλήσει ότι τα καθαριστικά από φαρμακείο(Avene, La Roche Posay, Vichy etc) είναι για ακμή μόνο. Μάλλον δεν ισχύει, ε;

ReplyDeleteIAM USING THE THREE PRODUCTS BLUE BERRY FACE WASH,TONER AND CREAM BT IT HAS GIVEN ME RASHES,PIMPLES THAT I DIDN'T HAVE BEFORE
ReplyDelete@Natasa: η σειρά με την αλόη είναι αγαπημένη μου εδώ και πολλά χρόνια!!
ReplyDelete@Anonymous: really? You may had an allergic reaction, I suggest you stop using it! Sometimes the natural ingredients can cause allergic reaction the same way eating a fruit would. And don't forget there are also other ingredients like preservatives that you may be allergic to. This set helped my skin a lot but every skin is different. Keep the ingredients list for future reference, you may find the one(s) that causes you pimples so you can avoid it! Thanks very much for stopping by and sharing your experience, I really appreciate it!
