Article: A Unique Dry Oil, the Bastide Way

Bastide Huile Sèche Épatante - Dry oil

A Unique Dry Oil, the Bastide Way

Browsing the shelves of your favorite beauty stores, you’ve probably noticed that dry oils are having a moment. Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse, Kiehl’s Argan Dry Oil, and L’Occitane Almond Supple Skin Oil are just a few of the popular ones on the market. 

With so many oils available already, we knew we had to make ours extra special so it would outshine them all. Enlisting the help of a Provence-based oil expert (one of our cherished beauty artisans with generations of savoir-faire), we defined the most important criteria: easy to use (no spills!) skin-loving (easily absorbed to reveal soft, glowy, smooth skin), and full of goodness (aka extra healthy nutrients). 

It took us five months and many rounds of trial and error to find the perfect formula, but it was worth it! We’re so proud of our award-winning Huile Sèche Épatante Dry Oil Mist, and we know you’ll love it because:

There’s nothing sticky about it

The mist design ensures you can apply exactly the right amount (without losing a precious drop) and the lightweight formula dries instantly. Just spray on, get dressed, and enjoy hydrated skin with a sun-kissed glow.

It loves your skin

We believe skin is skin. All Bastide products are crafted so they can be used from head-to-toe, including your face. Packed with antioxidant-rich oils, our Dry Oil Mist protects your skin from free radicals and offsets the damage caused by pollution. Combining vitamin E rich oils, linoleic acid, and honey extract, it works wonderfully at softening and healing your skin without clogging pores, and will no doubt claim a prime spot on your beauty shelf. You can even use it on your hair to soothe dry ends and tame flyaways.

A daily trip to Provence

Our Dry Oil Mist is infused with orange blossom, delivering an addictive scent that takes you straight to the south of France every morning. Revel in what we call la douceur de vivre with every spray, and take the time to embrace the provençal spirit: slow-paced, natural, and bursting with flavors. 

Bastide Au Naturel

We’re committed to natural beauty, always and forever. That’s why we develop our products with the most natural goodness found in Provence, and almost nothing else. Harmful ingredients (such as PEGs, silicones, mineral oils, and many more) are not welcome at Bastide. All that’s left is wonderfully efficient skincare, made with love and passion, naturally.
