- Arnica — The "Golden Flower of the Alps"
In my practice, arnica is invaluable for reducing inflammation, especially after skin treatments. This golden flower, which grows on alpine slopes, has been used for centuries to heal wounds and reduce redness. Legends tell us that arnica was a gift from mountain spirits, and today we know it contains flavonoids and carotenoids — natural anti-inflammatory components. Forêt Bleue includes arnica in creams and serums, helping the skin recover and heal quickly. I often recommend such products for clients with sensitive and reactive skin.
Edelweiss is a symbol of Switzerland, cherished for its antioxidant properties. It’s believed that those who find this rare flower will be granted eternal youth. Edelweiss extract, used by Forêt Bleue, helps fight free radicals, protecting the skin from premature aging. This ingredient is ideal for clients seeking effective anti-aging care. I see its impact: the skin becomes firmer, and fine lines soften, lending a more youthful appearance.
- Alpine Chamomile — The "Drop of Sunshine" for Soothing Skin
Sensitive skin requires a special touch, and chamomile is my go-to for calming and comforting irritated skin. Grown on high alpine meadows, this chamomile contains azulene and bisabolol, which have soothing properties. I often tell my clients that chamomile is like sunshine for their skin, bringing relief and smoothness. Forêt Bleue incorporates this gentle yet effective ingredient, making it perfect for daily use, especially after cleansing routines.
Rosehip oil is one of my favorites for its powerful moisturizing qualities. It’s rich in vitamin C, which brings a natural glow to the skin. In ancient times, rosehip was called the “elixir of youth,” and I always remind clients that this ingredient is perfect for dry and dehydrated skin. Forêt Bleue uses rosehip oil to deeply nourish and restore skin, leaving it with a natural glow and improved tone.
Each Product: Nature’s Magic Combined with Science
It’s important to me that products are not only effective but also natural and safe for health. Forêt Bleue combines knowledge of plants with modern scientific methods, creating products that adhere to the "clean beauty" philosophy. Every component is carefully selected, and the brand upholds the highest standards of quality — a huge benefit for my clients who seek ethical and safe skincare.
Forêt Bleue is more than just skincare; it’s a brand that respects nature and community. All products are crafted by hand in the canton of Vaud, while packaging and labeling are completed in Geneva in collaboration with PRO, an organization that provides employment for people with disabilities. This is a key factor, as I know that by recommending this brand, we are supporting a socially responsible business that makes the world a bit better.
How to Use Forêt Bleue Products to Feel the Power of Nature
In my consultations, I always emphasize the importance of regularity and proper skincare routines. Here are my tips on using Forêt Bleue products to achieve maximum results:
-Morning Cleansing and Nourishment
Start your morning with gentle cleansers featuring chamomile. This preps the skin for further care, making it fresh and ready for your day cream.
-Daytime Protection from External Factors
I recommend using an edelweiss serum under your day cream. Antioxidants protect the skin from pollution and environmental damage, especially in urban areas.
-Evening Restoration and Hydration
After cleansing, apply arnica cream and rosehip oil for deep recovery and nourishment. This way, your skin benefits fully from its nighttime rest.
Forêt Bleue does more than create skincare; they bring us stories that combine ancient knowledge and modern science. Forêt Bleue’s products unlock the natural power and richness of Switzerland, helping to restore skin with ingredients that have deep-rooted traditions and beneficial properties.
