MELVITA. (Mel = Honey. Vita = Life)

Ecological and Organic Cosmetics since 1983..

I had the pleasure of attending a press event for this french brand a few weeks back to hear about some wonderful products by Melvita. The PR team were fantastic, thank-you Simon, Emma and co! The smells in particular from some of the products reminded me of home.. with gorgeous scents of citrus and lemon trees, fresh tea leaves and various sweets.

Bernard Chevilliat is the founder, a biologist and beekeeper who set up this company over 25 years ago. His passion for the brand was driven by love of nature and beauty. Melvita today holds one of the largest ranges of certified organic products in the world. Melvita uses over 600 natural ingredients (plant oils, plant extracts, floral waters and has products for children, men and women. So something out there for each of you. Check out there lovely store in Covent Garden.

Some of my favourite picks..

Eye Make-up remover 
Water Based, Gentle enough for contact lenses, non greasy, removes waterproof mascara. Cornflower water, chamomile and lotus.. ahhhhh to remove with a refreshing scent and helps to reduce any puffiness around eyes. Great one for the kit.


Satin effect Dry Oil
I LOVE THIS!!
Long lasting moisture, feels amazing, repairs and protects, floral notes of mimosa, ylang ylang, peach and apricot. Such a treat to use.

Rose Extraordinary Water
Invigorating and great for skin prep. Great gel like texture (unlike usual Rose Water textures), helps to firm the skin, great for more dryer and mature skin for rehydration.

A friend of mine from Sydney was in need of a recommendation for Eye Cream/Gel.. So have sent her Melvita Eye Contour Gel to try out in hope to help with Dark Circles mainly.. I will let you all know how she gets on in a month or so if she has improvements etc.. Enjoy. x

Much more in the range.. Bliss.
