My Angelica Experience



Hi all!

I'm back with L'Occitane. This time it is about the hydrating range from Angelica. The pale green plan that is so amazing and inspiring ^^

Details can be found on loccitane.co.id

And here is the products details in using order plus some reviews of mine ^^ and don't forget there's a video below so you'll see the instant transformation of my quenched skin thanks to Angelica series of L'Occitane.

Angelica

During the Middle Ages in France, angelica was used for its excellent medical properties and as a herb. It was recommended for the overworked or convalescing. angelica essential oil has hydrating and toning properties, which helps restore one's beauty.

Cleansing Gel:

This fresh and delicate Angelica Cleansing Gel transforms into a light and airy foam when combined with water. Enriched with water and essential oil of organic angelica, it softly removes make-up and impurities, while preserving the skin’s hydrolipidic film, for perfectly clean and hydrated skin. Skin immediately feels soft and looks radiant.

Review:

The gel is so delightful, with the scent that's is typical for the whole range of Angelica, a green note, it was able to cleanse my skin without striping it dry. Soft and gentle. But for the makeup, you need to remove your makeup then this cleansing gel. Easy to lather but not abundantly.

Exfoliating Gel:

With its pearly glow, fresh scent and melting texture, the Angelica Exfoliating Gel instantly revives tired skin. The natural micro-balls gently remove dead skin cells and impurities, and boost microcirculation. Organic Angelica Extracts preserve natural hydration, for skin that is incredibly clean, soft, smooth with a beautiful glow.

Review:

There are some of unique products in the range, in terms of texture, scent and function, the exfoliating gel is one of the uniqueness, with clear chubby beads, it cleanse the skin and help the circulation process without being too harsh. Suitable for those suffering from dry skin where the skin is 'hurt' enough by the dryness.


Instant Hydration Mask:

The Angelica Instant Hydration Mask is an ultra fresh and water-soaked gel that rehydrates the thirstiest skin within 3 minutes. The skin will instantly draw all the hydration it needs to provide radiance, comfort and freshness all day long. Its rinse-free formula allows the active ingredients to give skin 24-hour continuous hydration. The skin will be fresh, plump and thirst-quenched.

Review:

This is the star of the range as well. Providing instant hydration to the skin and fast too. The staff at L'Occitane Indonesia told me, if one's skin really dry, can use the mask as sleeping mask, but it is not recommended to normal or oily skin to use it as a sleeping mask. I like the fact that the hydration is calming, soothing and yes, the scent is also so wonderful, it was love at first touch. One of the must try products from L'Occitane and I can really say, anyone need hydration ^^


Eye Roll On:

This ultra-fresh and light Angelica Eye Roll-On gel immediately decongests the eye area, reduces dark circles and puffiness, and smoothes fine lines. Eyes feel instantly awake and younger, with signs of tiredness diminished. Suitable for all skin types.

Review:

Soft and gentle water for the areas near the eyes. Suitable for those who need a mild rejuvenation for the eyes. Can be used anytime and it is a very handy product.


Milky Lotion:

This Milky Lotion effectively penetrates to your skin and activates skin cells for maximum absorption of moisture and nutrients. Use it right after cleansing and toning as a hydrating booster to your skincare routine.

Review:

Another favorite of mine from this series. The lotion feels gooey and I really love love love how it work itself on my skin. Moisture and the milkiness is like the curd on top of milks. My skin loving it as well.


Hydration Cream:

Made with organic angelica from the DrĂ´me region of France, the fresh and silky smooth Angelica Hydration Cream efficiently moisturizes and revitalizes the skin.
L'OCCITANE’s patented angelica complex reinforces natural skin hydration by stimulating aquaporines, improves skin elasticity and protects from free radicals. Skin is plumped, smoothed and more radiant. Best for dry to normal skin.


Review:

The cream reminds me of Immortelle but slightly loghter and juicier. Giving the skin more hydration and softness it deserve. Water does provide the life for our skin. The white cream is delicate and I think it is suitable for any skin type, a friend of mine whose also acne prone love Angelica and it helps her skin to recover as well.






Overall:

Angelica is a range of products specially made with love for those suffering from dry skin. Suffering? Yes! Dry skin can be painful, as the skin easily cracked, irritated and well, angry. Redness it cause is not a happy blush on the cheeks, it is a sign of S.O.S. So, pay attention to your skin (or those surround you) and you might need Angelica yourself or recommend it to someone who need it. Angelica series is great to be used the whole set but you can still pick a few that you need and it will still work for you. Our skin have different needs and Angelica have many products that can accommodate the skin's need of water/hydration. Remember to also maintain a good healthy diet, eat enough fruits and vegetable, plus drink minimum 8 glass of water per day also helps your skin hydrating. Help your skin quench it thirst from outside and inside!
