Meet Bionée Certified Organic Skin Care

I love natural skin care products, especially when I’m pregnant, and when you throw in a product from the south of France, I’m going to be completely cliche and say “ooh la la.” I’m also a little into trying out new things and thanks to Bionée Skin Care I had the opportunity to try out their Revitalizing Face Cream and Nipple Remedy.

Bionée Nipple Remedy

I’m not currently nursing, so I’ve been using the nipple remedy on my lips. I discovered this trick when I was nursing my son and had really, really unbearably dry lips and the only thing in reach was my nipple cream. I don’t know what it is about pregnancy that gives me dry lips, I’m just going to blame hormones. Bionee Nipple Remedy worked really well for my dry lips. For the first time in 18 weeks I haven’t had cracked lips. Plus, it has a pleasant taste. I figured that would be an important point considering the little one would be tasting it if I were using it as nipple cream. I didn’t find it had quite the staying power of the standard hospital issue nipple cream, but for lip healing it was still effective. And it’s lanolin and fragrance free for those with allergies.

Revitalizing Face Cream

I love the scent of the Revitalizing Face Cream. It has a light lemon scent and has a light smooth texture. My biggest problem with dry skin is forgetting to use creams and lotions, and unfortunately that’s not a problem the Revitalizing Face Cream can solve for me, but when I remember to use it, it works really well.

To Buy or Not to Buy

To Buy… Safe, organic products that smell (and taste) good. What’s not to love?

Or Not to Buy… The only reason I can think not to try these products is if you are already in love with another product that’s safe in pregnancy.

Shop! The Nipple Remedy is available for just $9.99 and the Revitalizing Face Cream is $29.99. You can also pick up an adorable gift set for your next baby shower or new mom gift.

After a year and a half of motherhood, Malia is finding life as a full time work-outside-the-home mom much, much more rewarding and both more and less challenging than she expected. She's constantly amazed by the wonderful new little person in her life and all his antics, but also thoroughly enjoys leaving him in loving care while she works in "grown up land" (on most days anyway). Her family will soon be growing as they plan to welcome a baby girl into the family this winter. Her impending arrival has everyone excited and a little freaked out (except for baby Jack, who at 18 months is still blissfully clueless).
