Advantages: genuine and effective aromatherapy treatment
Disadvantages: -
Aromessence Visage Neroli The key to the whole Decleor range, what sets it apart from most of the others, is its aromessences - genuine aromatherapy treatments for the face and body. The only other line to do anything like this is the less widely available Darphin (and arguably Clarins only they have more chemicals than essential oils!) The Neroli face treatment oil is the company's biggest selling product and definitely one of the highlights of the whole range. For those not familiar with it, it's a little (15ml), very pretty frosted glass bottle which contains a very concentrated aromatherapy treatment - with essential oils of Petitgrain, Neroli, Sage, Parsley and Sandalwood in a hazelnut oil base. This is aimed at normal and sensitive skins; I don't use it all the time, but immediately turn to it if my skin starts to get reactive or sensitive or a little bit dry - it then has an almost miraculous effect in calming and soothing and moisturising. I also keep a 7ml travel size in my handbag and if skin anywhere starts to get itchy or dry I find this makes a fantastic rescue remedy. The aim of the product, however, is to be used as an intermediate stage between completition of cleansing (ie after toning) and before moisturising. Decleor have some pretty impressive figures which show how much more effective any moisturiser will be if it's used on top of an aromessence. That means you don't have to use the whole Decleor range to benefit from this; although it won't work properly if you slap something loaded with petrochemicals on top of it! Your moisturiser will also go much much further as you need to use a lot less on top of this You only need the tiniest bit to have a big difference - the company recommends one drop for the whole face and neck; but I use slightly less than this (but I have a slightly oilier skin). It's not cheap, but a bottle lasts me about 1
8 months (I do use the ylang for oily skin as well) and I think it's worth it. I'd very much reconmmend it for anyone who has skin that tends to flare up with sensitivities or who suffers from patchy dryness. For very dry skin there's aromesence Angelique which is also excellent. If you're interested in trying this salons do have little sample bottles which should last you about 2/3 weeks which they should be willing to give you. Oh - and like everything Decleor it smells fantastic!
