If you’ve been following my blog (or my social media), you’ll already know how much I adore the NUXE brand. I was recently sent a goody bag containing their new Huile Prodigieuse Roll-On’s (OMG!) as well as two fabulous sunscreens.
Nuxe’s Huile Prodigieuse is a multi-purpose dry oil that’s been a long-time favourite of mine, and is one of those products that never leaves my beauty shelf – and for good reason. In France, Huile Prodigieuse is a pharmacy icon, with one bottle sold every six seconds worldwide. Pretty impressive, right? But beyond the numbers, what makes it so special is the way it manages to reinvent itself while staying true to its roots: a silky dry oil texture, a cocktail of beautiful botanical oils, and that unforgettable signature scent. Over the years, Nuxe has turned Huile Prodigieuse into a full collection, winning over more and more fans along the way.
And now, the brand has gone and done something that made me ridiculously excited – they’ve released two roll-on versions.
If you’ve ever wished for a more precise way to apply dry oil, the roll-on is a dream. The roller ball glides softly over the skin, hugging every contour as it spins 360°. Whether you hold it up or down, it delivers just the right amount of oil exactly where you want it. I love the elegant design with its gold-tone metal and glass bottle. It mirrors the sophistication of the original spray, but with a lovely fresh twist.
Why Huile Prodigieuse Is So Special
The magic is in the formula. Nuxe combines seven precious botanical oils – macadamia, sweet almond, hazelnut, camellia, borage, argan, and tsubaki – to create a vegan blend that nourishes, repairs, and beautifies both skin and hair.
There are two main versions:
Huile Prodigieuse Multi-Use Dry Oil Roll-On R746 (for a 60ml) SHOP – Leaves skin with a silky, hydrated finish.
Huile Prodigieuse Or Roll-On R795 (60ml) SHOP – infused with natural-origin pearly particles for a sun-kissed, golden glow.
Both share the same sensual fragrance with warm, solar notes, and both are designed to leave your skin silky soft and your hair shiny without any greasy residue.
How to Roll
The beauty of the roll-on is how versatile it is. You can use it year-round, whether it’s in the middle of summer or the dead of winter.
On the body: Glide it over your chest, legs, or any dry patches. The Or version is stunning for adding a touch of shimmer to your shoulders or décolleté.
On the face: Either roll it into your palms first or apply directly in circular motions. The Or version doubles as a highlighter – try it on your cheekbones or even the centre of your forehead.
On the hair: Roll a little onto your palms, rub between your hands, and run through the lengths and ends. Huile Prodigieuse Or gives hair a subtle golden sheen that catches the light beautifully.
It’s easy, mess-free, and makes pampering yourself feel that much more fun.
Sun Protection with a Touch of Luxury
Along with the roll-on oil, I also got to try two new Nuxe sunscreens, and let me tell you – I’m in love. They don’t just protect your skin, they actually make wearing sunscreen feel indulgent.
Nuxe Sun Oil Gold SPF50 (R995) SHOP
This iridescent face-and-body oil gives you high UVA/UVB and blue light protection with SPF50. It’s lightweight, water-resistant, and enriched with natural mother-of-pearl to leave skin moisturized, radiant, and glowing with a golden finish.
The formula is boosted with a patented filtering system to protect against short and long UVA rays. It also includes extracts of rice and rosemary to prevent premature aging and dark spots.
The texture absorbs quickly, never feels greasy, and has that irresistible Nuxe summer scent: sweet orange, tiare flower, and vanilla. Basically, sunshine in a bottle.
Nuxe Sun Spray SPF50 (R845) SHOP
If you prefer a lighter texture, the Delicious Sun Spray is another gem. This SPF50 spray protects against UVA/UVB while also helping to prevent dark spots and photoaging. It melts into the skin with no sticky finish or white cast – just soft, hydrated skin and the same tropical fragrance that makes you feel like you’re on holiday.
Both formulas are non-comedogenic, water-resistant, tested for marine ecosystem safety, and free of animal-derived ingredients – so they’re as kind to your skin as they are to the planet.
Why I’m Loving These New Launches
Between the Huile Prodigieuse roll-on and the new sunscreens, Nuxe has once again managed to make beauty essentials feel like little luxuries. These aren’t just practical products; they’re sensorial experiences that make you want to use them daily.
I’ve always believed that beauty is about more than just results – it’s about how products make you feel. With Nuxe, I feel pampered, protected, and glowing, whether I’m adding a touch of shimmer to my shoulders or spritzing on SPF before heading outdoors.
So, if you’re looking for a multitasking oil that does it all, or a sunscreen that’s as indulgent as it is protective, I can’t recommend these enough.
Nuxe continues to reinvent everyday beauty staples into something truly special. Whether it’s the cult-favourite oil in a chic new roll-on, or sunscreens that double as glowing skin enhancers, these launches prove that skincare can be both effective and enjoyable.
Trust me, once you try them, you’ll understand why I’m completely smitten.
