Winter is upon us again. That means:runny noses, chapped lips and dry skin. Not the best season for our skin if you ask me. Besides, the older you get, the more that skin leaves something to be desired anyway. Regardless of the season. Your skin requires more and more attention as the years go by. The elasticity decreases, pores become more visible and the dreaded wrinkles appear here and there. LXMI has therefore launched an African beauty recipe on the market. The vegan skin care products are also 100% fair trade. So that not only we, but also the Ugandan makers benefit from it! I would be happy to tell you more about LXMI, a beauty brand with a shine.

The shelves of our drugstores and perfumeries are full of skin care products. Do you ever pay attention to the ingredients when choosing your care products? Or the origin of that jar or bottle?
LXMI (pronounced as laksmie) has launched a new vegan care line. After an African recipe, based on only natural ingredients. So fair ingredients. It is nice to know that the women in Uganda who make these products earn three times as much as the Ugandan standard. So you pay fairly for your jar or tube. And that lubricates just that little bit better.
The new care line from LXMI does not only come from Uganda, the recipe for it is also Ugandan. Here the women have been anointing themselves for centuries with a balm from the Nilotica tree. These trees grow along the banks of the Nile and produce Nilotica nuts. The Ugandan ladies squeeze the nuts, which produces a beneficial balm.
The effects of the Nilotica nuts do not lie. The balm from the nuts ensures a hydrated skin and the reduction of lines and wrinkles.
The LXMI brand attaches great importance to women's right to exist. That's why their products are fair not only to your skin, but also to the people who make them. In addition, they are suitable for vegans and (of course) cruelty free!
The new LXMI care line based on Nilotica balm consists of the following products:
A cream that is wonderful to apply to dry spots, such as around your eyes. Because the cream remains greasy for a while, it is wise to apply it in the evening, before going to bed. A somewhat thicker layer immediately gives the effect of a good mask. The cream can be absorbed all night without being bothered by the oily substance.
This LXMI cream costs € 41.00 for 36 ml
A moisturizing cream that is intended as a day and night cream that promises to minimize pores. I received a small tube to try. Before you apply it, of course, first clean your skin. Then you can get started with the Crème du Nil. You only need very little of it (which is nice, it's not that cheap 😉 ). The Crème du Nil is very easy to distribute on your face and gives a soft moisturizing feeling to the skin, with a very subtle scent.
The Crème du Nil costs € 23.80 for 15 ml
The XLMI Nilotica Goddess Glow gives a beautiful light shine over your make up. If you put it through your make-up, you can give your entire face a light shine, but I prefer to use a little on my cheekbones and under my eyebrow. You don't need much of the product and with a small dot of white eyeshadow in the inner corners of my eyes I immediately look a bit fresher. Provides a nice look, but in a very subtle way. Enough for me, but if you like to go heavier, the shine may be a bit too light for you.
Nilotica Goddes Glow costs € 44.20 for 30 ml
A good hand cream that is a bit greasy just like the LXMI Pure Nilotica Melt. It works, but I don't find it a pleasant cream to use during the day, especially because of the somewhat oily substance. I'll save this one for the evening!
Pure Nilotica Hand and Body Melt costs €27.20 for 50 gr
A delicious safe lip balm with nutty scent and subtle mint touch. With 30 ml you can go ahead for a long time, especially because this lip balm spreads very nicely. You only need a thin layer and it gives your lips a nice shine.
Nilotica Lip Melt costs €22.20 for 30 ml
Looking for a nice gift, or do you want to try both a cream and a highlighter yourself? Then go for the gift set. And especially for all traveling beauty queens, LXMI products are also available in a handy travel format!
