I’ve always been a big fan of Violette_FR since I first discovered her on YouTube, where she would casually do her makeup in public spaces—coffee shops, libraries, you name it. This French girl-turned-New Yorker is the epitome of cool sophistication, so I was thrilled when she launched her own skincare line.
Although Violette isn’t a skincare professional but a makeup artist with experience as a creative director at Guerlain, I trusted her products because they’re backed by French labs known for creating well-regarded skincare brands in France. So, I went ahead and purchased her “dreamy” set.
What really hooked me was the promise of an “easy-to-apply, all-purpose” magic cream and serum duo. This set was designed to simplify my skincare routine down to two products—perfect for practicality, functionality, and cost-effectiveness. Here’s my take on each:
Boum-Boum Milk – 100 ml
This serum-like formula is ultra-nourishing and quick to absorb, with a light, non-sticky texture. My favorite part? It’s versatile enough to use on my face, neck, and even the tips of my hair! It adds a refreshing touch without feeling heavy.
C’est La Cream
Slightly denser yet still lightweight, this cream leaves my skin feeling soft, hydrated, and beautifully glowy. It’s also an excellent base for makeup, providing a smooth canvas.
Both products have a subtle, lovely scent that makes the experience feel even more luxurious. If you’re still on the fence, I’d suggest trying the full set rather than just one product to get the best results—and it’s more cost-effective, too.
Even though I loved both products (which I ordered a year ago), I haven’t reordered them yet since I like experimenting with new skincare products. That said, this set could easily become a staple in my routine, and I’d definitely consider repurchasing in the future.
A Few Tips:
If you’re ordering from Europe, expect about a week for delivery. Shipping is free for orders over €100. And, of course, the packaging is beautifully designed—thoughtfully curated for a delightful unboxing experience that feels as luxurious as the products themselves!
