Lavender Multi Use Oil by Provence Beauty

Yes it's just a facial oil, but I wanted to expand upon why every guy should be using a Multi Use Oil. Growing up oil was just for frying eggs, now it's in my beard, it's in my morning water and lemon.

I've gotten more into oils lately as they reduce space and are multi-function. This Lavender Multi-Use Oil has been road tested this week and I've really put it through its paces. I needed an all-rounder oil to meet the following criteria: beard oil for dryness, shave oil for shaving, serum or oil for dry skin induced hair dander, oil for both moisturising hands and lips, dry hands, nail rejuvenation and overall 'smell like a champ' effect.

The Hype:

This is one of the best reviewed multi-use oils on the market right now and still available to buy online.

This isn’t the French skincare your grandmother knows and loves. This is French skincare made for modern beauty lovers. The ones who want clean, effective, and ultra-luxe formulas—for less than the price of apéro hour. The ones who prioritize product performance and pleasure equally, and wish French beauty was more approachable.

Provence Beauty are modernizing French skincare staples and making them accessible to all. Calling on their French roots, they combine their proprietary Provençal Complex with clinically-proven activities to deliver truly transformational and luxurious products for $25 or less.

A bit on Lavender

I'm usually ambivalent on lavender fragrances because it can, if done cheaply, smell antiseptic or soapy. Luckily this is better worked than most and fused with other essential oils like patchouli it has a blossoming effect on my sometimes dry, sensitive skin and hair.

Lavender, long revered for its calming properties, entwines with nourishing botanicals to create a masterpiece rooted in nature's benevolence. Free from harsh chemicals and cruelty, this elixir aligns seamlessly with those who strive to make conscious choices, allowing you to thrive with a clear conscience.

The bottle

Is truly a masterstroke. Glass and cylindrical, it's clear so the customer can see the sprig of lavender inside. It looks very classy on the shelf.

Any good?

I'm very sensitive to distinct smelling products and often won't buy anything with an overpowering perfume scent. I was intrigued by the bits of real flowers within the oil bottle which reminded me of drinking Goldschlager in my student days knowing there were real shavings of gold in there. (Yes I checked, still available).

I was pleasantly surprised by how the oil was infused with this light and wonderful scent of real lavender and maybe Jasmine! The bottle isn't very big, it's about 4oz but being that it's oil, it'll last a long while!

After my shower, I ladle the oil on to my face, body and bits like a drunk impressionist painter. Later that night I thought one of the dogs had been traipsing through the flower beds, turns out that was me. (My scent I mean).

It absorbs easily and instantly makes my skin supple and soft. It's thick enough to respect it being a good quality oil but doesn't leave an oily or sticky residue like a lot of oils do.

Buy again?

Yes, I could write poetry and odes to this oil. The infatuation begins for multi use oil. This has given my nails, skin and beard some much needed buoyancy of late. Recommend.
