Chantecaille: Why You Need These Natural Beauty Products

For the past week and a half, I've been testing what has proven to be a lovely line of natural beauty products. Chantecaille samples were sent to me by Jessica Dyehouse, my beautiful cousin and an advisor to the brand at Saks Fifth Avenue.

A legacy brand, Chantecaille was founded by Sylvie Chantecaille and has since become a full-fledged familial operation.  The brand employs advanced technologies alongside centuries-old skincare traditions to create health-enhancing products, known for their uniquely high concentration of natural botanicals. The company uses the healing properties of plants to create products that reduce inflammation, an otherwise scientifically proven driver of early aging.

In addition to their luxurious fragrances and textures, I love the fact that the formulation of Chantecaille products required no animal testing. Additionally, nearly all of the brand products are paraben, gluten and soy-free, making them ideal for myself and those of us that are all around sensitive.

Thus far, I've been very satisfied with the quality of Chantecaille products and the results I've seen. Of all the products I've thus far tested, below are the ones I'd be most apt to use regularly: 

Chantecaille Flower Infused Cleaning Milk [vegan friendly]

How it feels when applied:  like pouring a warm glass of milk over your face
What it's good for:  leaving your skin soft & supple, without stripping it of its natural oils 
What magical ingredients are inside: Mallow & Chamomile, which work together to reduce inflammation, Blue Cornflower which makes the skin appear more luminous [particularly around the eye area] & Vitamin B5, which helps the skin retain its natural moisture balance

Chantecaille Retinol Intense [contains soy]

How it feels when applied:  as if a dense, overnight cream and a lighter, daytime serum united
What it's good for:  fighting fine lines, deeper wrinkles and acne
What magical ingredients are inside: in addition to Retinol, which stimulates cellular rejuvenation, this product contains Jojoba Seed & Macadamia Nut oils to protect skin from dehydration, Evening Primrose Oil to moisturize it and Mallow to reduce irritation 
[Disclaimer: this product causes light peeling, as typical of Retinoids]

Chantecaille Jasmine and Lily Healing Mask

How it feels when applied: like a cool mask
What it's good for: quelling chapped/irritated skin
What magical ingredients are inside:  Jasmine Flower, which helps stimulate cellular renewal, and Lily Bulb, which helps soften, moisturize and soothe inflamed skin

Chantecaille Bamboo and Hibiscus Exfoliating Cream

How it feels when applied: like a thick cream with some coarse particles in it
What it's good for:  clearing away superficial dead skin through a gentle exfoliation 
What magical ingredients are inside:  Bamboo Powder gently removes impurities while the high levels of Pyruvic acids, inherent to Hibiscus Flower, promotes collagen synthesis

Chantecaille Nano Gold Energizing Eye Cream [vegan friendly]

What it feels like:  dense & creamy, but not over oily
What it's good for: dehydrated and/or seemingly aging skin around the eyes
What magical ingredients are inside:  24 Karat Gold, Silk & Alpine Skullcap/Elderflower Extract bind together to create an anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory energizing formula, that makes skin around the eyes appear more youthful & supple

Get The Glow: Our Tips to Glowing Skin!

See below for some easy things to do & remember to get that much sought-after, beautiful & glowing skin!

Exfoliate (without scrubbing):


Speed up your skin's cellular turnover & do away with dull, dead skin by incorporating alpha-hydroxy acids (AHA) like Glycolic or Lactic acid. Secret? Use products that contain an 8% concentration of AHAs, because anything below that is too low & anything above that can be too much. 

Stay away from scalding water:

Love hot showers? Think again. Super hot water can strip skin of its essential oils, making it appear dry. Plus, it'll take your skin time to bounce back after a hot shower, giving you a ruddy and blotchy effect that is all around not fun. 

Drink plenty of water: 

In addition to preventing dehydration, water assists in transporting nutrients and oxygen to skin cells, enhancing the look of your skin and preventing premature aging that could otherwise result from dryness. 

Use Retinol:

Retinol is proven to help skin cell turnover and boost collagen production. Retinol has great anti-inflammatory effects, which is why it's as effective at treating acne as it is at treating wrinkles and other signs of aging. The result of using a Retinol-based product? Firm, clear & youthful-looking skin.
