F.A.Q.

Novexpert has excluded essential oils from its formulation charter. Although they are natural compounds, they are highly allergenic. They can contain 200 to 600 different molecules! Anyone of them could cause an allergy (statistical law).

The use of essential oils therefore does not make it possible to be compatible with all types of skin, especially sensitive skin, nor to have hypoallergenic products.

Most essential oils are potentially neurotoxic and can cause abortion. Indeed, they have the ability to penetrate the layers of the skin to the blood. They therefore reach the baby.

In addition, essential oils that have an effect on the hormonal system (called hormone-like) should also be avoided. They are therefore considered as Endocrine Disruptors.

Yes, the Vitamin C Booster can be applied every day, before, during or after sun exposure.

Thanks to our stabilized vitamin C complex, it is protected from destruction by light and heat. The pH of the Booster is close to that of the skin, so it is compatible with all skin types, even sensitive skin. 

The vitamin C booster is: non-photo-allergic, non-phototoxic and non-photosensitive.

Yes, Novexpert products are 100% hypoallergenic and 0% allergenic.

They are specially formulated to minimize the risk of allergies. The products are rigorously tested, certified, designed and controlled by specialized doctors.

Yes, all Novexpert products are Vegan compatible.

All Novexpert products can be used by both men and women. They do not contain any phytohormones.

All Novexpert products are suitable for pregnant women for 5 reasons:

Novexpert formulas do not contain formulas from Vitamin A formulas. Novexpert formulas contain biodegradable ingredients and are therefore not kept in the umbilical cord. Novexpert formulas do not contain endocrine disruptors (= natural or chemical hormone that can affect the development of the baby, suspected but not proven) like soy isoflavones, parabens and some other preservatives like triclosan or chemical sunscreens…The last reason is that pregnant women’s skin is more sensitive, so the mention ” Hypoallergenic The last reason is that pregnant women’s skin is more sensitive, so the ” ” label is indeed a plus for them.

Before opening, Novexpert products can be kept for 3 years.

After opening, Novexpert products can be used for 6 months.

No, no Novexpert product is tested on animals. Animal testing of cosmetic products is prohibited by the European Regulation 1223/2009.

Most Novexpert products are certified organic. 

Those that are not are either Ecocert Ecological Cosmetics certified (products released before 2017) or Cosmos Natural (after 2017).

Novexpert formulas are 100% natural in origin.

This is no mean feat in terms of formulation… but this is our daily challenge: formulate effective products with the help of doctors, while being 100% of natural origin. And it’s possible, the proof!

Do you know the Chevreuse Valley? Located a few kilometres south-west of Paris, the Vallée de Chevreuse Regional Nature Park is a wooded, peaceful valley between town and country. It is an ideal place to get away from the urban lifestyle, discover authentic landscapes and take a breath of fresh air. It is in this idyllic setting that we wanted to set down our suitcases to imagine and create Novexpert products. It is, more precisely, in Gometz-la-Ville that we have found refuge for 10 years now.
