Nuxe: Huile Prodigieuse Or*

*AD - This product was gifted to me for review <3

Shimmer oils took over the instagram this summer and I could not be left behind. Last year I tried the iconic Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Multi-purpose Dry Oil and it was the first time I realised oils are quite good and not all of them are greasy and unpleasant. I liked it a lot as a part of my skincare routine and although I never repurchased, it is on my “to buy” list for a long time. 

Recently my eyes landed on the shimmer version of this oil. Scotland is not exactly the definition of a summertime holiday destination, so I decided to cheat a little and create the healthy holiday sun glow using this Huile Prodigieuse Or from Nuxe, which is a Multi-function dry oil with shimmer.

The shimmer oil is described as a multipurpose oil for face, body and hair. It contains small bronzed glitter that leaves such a nice shimmer layer on your skin. The shimmer is not too extravagant, it looks very natural. The oil leaves the skin soft, smooth and nourished without leaving it sticky and greasy. Oil is absorbed very quickly. 

 

Unlike the original oil, I use the shimmer one almost exclusively on my body. I am not too comfortable using the shimmer on my face and I was never a big fan of using oils on my hair. This oil is absolutely perfect for summer. The oil is very light and it smells fantastic. Moreover, it possesses antioxidant properties which makes it great after the tan product. 

The oil comes in 50 ml or 100 ml glass bottle. I got the 50 ml one but I think I will go for the 100 ml one next time. There is a small hole on top of the bottle so you have to shake the bottle to get it out. I would prefer a spray applicator, however, I am not sure how realistic it would be with all that shimmer. I am deeply impressed once again and if you now excuse me, I am going to bath myself in this phenomenal oil from Nuxe.
