A pharmacist in Paris told me this product is the secret to French women's gorgeous skin and hair

Am I the only one whose ever had to toss a bunch of beloved beauty products in the airport security line because they don't fit neatly into one of those tiny plastic zipper bags? I think not. It happened to me most recently while visiting Paris and I found myself stranded in France without a moisturizer. As soon I checked into the hotel, I went to the first green pharmacy sign I could find.

Because French pharmacies have a different selection of beauty products than our drugstores in America, I asked the woman working in the shop for a recommendation. I needed one small product that I could use as a moisturizer on my face, and if it could flex and moisturize elsewhere, even better. Without much thought, she pointed me toward this NUXE Huile Prodigieuse Multi-Purpose Dry Oil. She only offered that it was a product that many French women use and love, like their own little secret weapon, and that was that.

I used the NUXE Multi-Purpose Dry Oil religiously while in Paris because I had no other option but get this: I’ve continued to use it months later even though I have all my old favorite products. It really is that good.

If you're apprehensive about adding an oil to your skin or hair care routine, I totally get it. My skin can get shiny, especially in the summer, but this oil isn’t greasy and doesn’t increase the shine factor. Instead, it goes on smooth, absorbs quickly and leaves my skin feeling soft and incredible.

As the name suggests, the NUXE Multi-Purpose Dry Oil is indeed multifaceted. At night, I spritz a bit in my hands and rub it through my hair, and the results are impressive. My hair is shiny without feeling weighed down or oily. Heck, I've even used this oil as a hand moisturizer and to hydrate my cuticles and it works like magic every time.

The more I fell in love with the NUXE Multi-Purpose Dry Oil, the more I started to despair that I’d need to return to Paris for another bottle when I ran out. But thank heavens for Amazon! You can buy this amazing NUXE Multi-Purpose Dry Oil there and have it arrive at your doorstep in two days if you're a Prime member.

Given how much I love the NUXE Multi-Purpose Dry Oil, it wasn't surprising to find that the product has 4.4 out of 5 stars on Amazon and more than 11,000 ratings.

One shopper raved, "Fabulous! Great smell, leaves your skin so soft without making it greasy and oily. Great for summer nights. Love it."

Another shopper commented, "I buy this oil over and over, it’s so light and smells so good, it’s so soft and you can use it everywhere. You body, a bit in your hair it’s dry so it absorbs quickly…and keeps you soft."

So because a French woman was kind enough to share this game-changing skin care secret with me, I'm paying it forward and sharing it with you. Even if you only use the NUXE Multi-Purpose Dry Oil occasionally, you’ll be glad you added it to your beauty arsenal.
