!!! For professionals only !!! Implantation Pack: Organic face masks made in France

The eye contour is the most fragile and sensitive area of ​​the face. Wrinkles, puffiness, dark circles… this area, where the skin is very thin, can show signs of aging very easily if it isn't cared for daily. And since the eyes are one of the first things people notice about someone, we're revealing our solutions for restoring a bright and revitalized look. Choose a gentle makeup remover for your eyes Choose a gentle makeup remover that respects the sensitivity of the eye area. For example, you can use an eye makeup remover containing natural active ingredients such as aloe vera, which has multiple moisturizing and soothing properties, or cornflower water, known for its decongestant and stimulating benefits. For users of waterproof or highly pigmented makeup, a two-phase formula is recommended in order to dissolve the eyeshadows easily and without rubbing. Sleep with a silk pillowcase Did you know? Silk is a remarkable material that has many benefits for your skin. By swapping your cotton pillowcases for silk ones, you'll reduce friction and creases from the fabric against your skin. As a result, you'll minimize the appearance of wrinkles and creases on your face, especially around the eyes, which are particularly prone to those "sleep wrinkles" that eventually become permanent. Gentle on the skin, silk is suitable for sensitive, dry or blemished skin. Another reason to choose a silk pillowcase for your eyes: Have you ever wondered why your facial skincare, especially your eye care, isn't working well enough? The answer might be your pillowcase. Cotton pillowcases tend to absorb more of your serums, creams, and night masks. By using a silk pillowcase at night, your eye care products will be more effective because they'll be absorbed less. Bonus: the pillowcase is also a great friend for keeping hair beautiful and silky! Use targeted care: our Les Poulettes Certified Organic Eye Patches Made in France As explained previously, the eye contour is a thin and delicate area of ​​your face that requires specific care. A simple facial moisturizer will tend to overload the skin due to its heavy texture. Also, keep in mind that some facial moisturizers may contain active ingredients that are too harsh for the eyes, such as essential oils. As a result, you risk irritating this delicate area and causing puffiness! So what treatment should you use to reduce fine lines and under-eye bags? Your skin needs a product with revitalizing and hydrating properties, all without being greasy. Good news! Our Les Poulettes “full contour” eye patches are certified organic and made in France and are infused with a formula rich in plant extracts! We chose vegetable glycerin for its humectant and hydrating power, which guarantees the maintenance of the skin's natural water content, and hyaluronic acid, a true hydration booster that helps smooth fine lines around the eyes. We added young barley shoot water with revitalizing properties. And finally , konjac root , which helps fight skin fatigue, and particularly dark circles. A true concentrate of natural active ingredients to reduce the appearance of crow's feet, dark circles, and puffiness. A refreshed and rejuvenated eye contour guaranteed in just 10 minutes! Our tips for a tenfold effect: Store the organic and Made in France eye patches in a refrigerator before use to get the full decongestant benefits. After removing the patches, feel free to massage the eye contour by making circular movements around the eye with the pad of your ring finger. Practice face yoga The face has over 50 muscles, 22 of which are around the eyes. Facial yoga is extremely beneficial when practiced regularly, as it helps tone these eye muscles. The result: a less tired appearance by reducing wrinkles and signs of fatigue. Here are 2 facial yoga exercises for the eye contour to perform several times a week for visible results. Exercise #1 Step 1: Place each index finger on your eyelids and inhale. Step 2: Exhale while trying to open your eyes. Repeat several times. Exercise #2 Step 1: Place each index finger at the outer corner of your eyes, stretch gently while inhaling Step 2: As you exhale, close your eyes for 3 seconds, then open them again.

Today, we've decided to give you some more details about our eye patches. We'll explain how to apply them correctly to your eyelids, around your eyes. And why trying them means you'll love them…

Are you interested in this blog? It seems you consider organic certification for cosmetic products very important to you. That's great, because we do too! So much so, in fact, that we've planned to divide this post into several parts to cover the topic properly. It is not always easy to understand the difference between conventional cosmetics, natural cosmetics and certified organic cosmetics. Indeed, through our interactions with the Poulettes community, we have observed this. Everyone's talking about Green Beauty. Natural ingredients are being promoted more than ever. Controversies surrounding preservatives are a well-known topic among the general public… And yet, organic products remain a relatively niche category in the world of health and beauty. To date, organic cosmetics still only represent 5% of total cosmetic sales. So you are part of an elite club of female consumers (still a minority, but demanding and committed). And we thank you for that! Some basic regulations: In Europe, cosmetic products must comply with the Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 November 2009 (and its various amendments). Cosmetic regulations are indeed adapting to the evolution of our knowledge about health and to our ethical and environmental choices. The ban on animal testing in Europe, for example, is quite recent when you think about it: 2013. And the ban on certain parabens (such as isobutyl or phenylparaben) only dates back to 2014. Methylisothiazolinone (MIT), a preservative responsible for many cases of chronic allergic eczema, disappeared from the composition of leave-on products in 2017. As for D5 (also called Cyclopentasiloxane), it's a silicone that combines the status of an endocrine disruptor with the characteristic of being bioaccumulative (boo!). It is therefore non-biodegradable and damages the oceans. (Boo! Double boo!). It was banned in January of this year, 2020. The fish are thrilled, and so are we. It should be noted that Europe still has a list of 1300 prohibited ingredients. Whereas in the USA, there are only… 30. So we're not so badly off on this side of the Atlantic, all the same. That said, it's your body we're talking about. So you have the right to demand maximum safety from your products. The "no pain, no gain" mentality is completely outdated, take it from me. The precautionary principle of organic farming: never be too careful European law, however, still allows many ingredients deemed undesirable by various consumer organizations and associations. This is particularly true of many preservatives considered potential endocrine disruptors. This will undoubtedly change, but in the meantime, to avoid taking risks, it's a good idea to opt for organic products. Indeed, the organic labels that certify our products (Ecocert and Cosmos Organic) advocate the precautionary principle. They impose much stricter standards on certified organic brands, such as Les Poulettes Paris, than current regulations and therefore prohibit the following ingredients or ingredient families: This blacklist of certified green beauty products is not exhaustive but gives a good idea of ​​what organic cosmetics do not contain. For more information, see " Fact sheets on toxic molecules to avoid " on the website of Which to Choose But why do non-organic brands still use controversial ingredients? You might ask us: if these substances are potentially dangerous or polluting, why don't all brands require themselves to avoid them, regardless of the organic label? Very good question. This is due, among other things, to the difficulty of formulating an effective preservative system using only a limited range of approved organic preservatives. Furthermore, these raw materials are more expensive! For example, in conventional cosmetics, a good little dose of phenoxyethanol (easy to produce, cheap and radical against many bacteria) and the trick is -almost- done. The organic formulation prohibits the potentially irritating phenoxyethanol. A complex and precisely measured blend of 3-4 active ingredients (often salts of organic acids, sorbic, salicylic, or dehydroacetic acid, benzyl alcohol, etc.) will be required in the lab to achieve the same level of effectiveness. The use of mild preservatives, the risk of bacterial contamination, and the risk of rapid oxidation of the formula are out of the question. Note: Ethanol (the base alcohol, the same as in your favorite cocktails) is permitted in organic products. It's not dangerous, toxic, or polluting, but at Les Poulettes Paris, we consider it potentially drying for the skin, so we also prohibit it in the formulas of our certified organic and Made in France face masks . For an aperitif, however, we don't say no!
