Over the last five years, I’ve learned more and more how much of what you put in and on your body affects your health and well-being. I’m always on the lookout for natural brands and products that actually work. I find that a lot of them don’t do exactly what I want them to do so I’m always on the hunt.
I recently discovered Le Couvent des Minimes, a line of natural products made in France, and have officially fallen in love. They use simple, well-known ingredients, focusing on what is really necessary and excluding what is not. When I first received a big box of product from the brand, I was immediately drawn to the packaging before I even knew this about them. It’s simple, vinage-inspired, and looks beautiful in my bathroom and on my night stand.
I then spent a few days trying it out and was hooked. From the array of botanical colognes, to the all-natural everyday deodorant (literally the first one I’ve ever tried that works), to the hand cream, I’m officially a convert to le couvent!
In addition to deodorant, I’ve been on the lookout lately for a perfume that isn’t laden with chemicals and now I’ve found two. My favorite scents are the brightly-scented Eau du Cloitre (with notes of rose, pink peppercorn, geranium, grapefruit, ginger, and cedar) and refreshing Eau des Minimes (notes of grapefruit, blood orange, lemon, rosemary, burdock, and neroli). I’ve been trading them off for the past 2 weeks but haven’t decided which one is my new “signature scent” yet.
Have you guys heard of or tried Le Couvent des Minimes? If so, I’d love to hear which products you love!
