Quality speaks for itself. My brain does an intuitive comparison and registers that this is better than the previous. Whether it be clothes, food, or an automobile, they fit, taste and drive different.
Based on my extensive use of Votre Vu’s Formule 1 Men’s 3-in-1 Wash, Habitude Men’s Daily Face Créme – SPF 15, and Beau Baume Organic Shave Balm, this luxury skin care company offering the finest French-made and cruelty free formulations, has an extraordinary line of men’s skin care and grooming products.
In addition to general daily use, I put these products to the test after exposing my face, skin and hair to the elements on an extreme hike, a day at the beach, and a swim in my buddy’s overly-chlorinated pool.
I have used Clinique’s and Jack Black’s line of cruelty-free men’s product, and believe they have met their match! In fact, I contest on behalf of Votre Vu to the myriad of recognitions for Jack Black by Men’s Health magazine as the best-of-the-best male skin care and grooming products.
Votre Vu products are sold through Independent Brand Ambassadors—think Avon. If you do not have an ambassador, make an initial purchase at its website and you’ll be connected with one.
Formule 1 Men’s 3 in 1 Wash
I have tried them, and most “all-in-1’s” fail. They may clean my face, body and hair, but they ultimately strip my body’s restorative natural oils. I simply will not use them.
Not the case here. The citrus lather washed away sand, sweat and sunscreen and restored the natural oils that make my hair, face and skin look and feel healthy. After each use, I felt cleansed, refreshed, restored, and ready to get on with my day.
I love the refreshing properties of citrus in the summer, but not anything too overpowering. This 3-in-1 has a perfectly balanced and natural lemon scent.
In my experience, nothing comes remotely close to this exceptional product.
Habitude Men’s Daily Face Créme – SPF 15
My face looked and felt restored after a shave and applying. It worked in perfect unison with the shave balm. I do have to contest Votre’s Vu’s claim of a matte finish; after applying, my face was left looking shiny, but not feeling oily. Once again, I love the refreshing and not too over powering citrus aroma. The SPF of 15 provides great sun protection. And, unlike other face creams that will not penetrate a slight beard and remain on the surface, this one did.
Beau Baume Organic Shave Balm
On occasion, I love visiting a traditional barber and getting an old-school shave.
This product produced that same feeling of an old-school shave. I used as they suggest, steaming my face first, and the result was an incredibly close and smooth shave. The menthol provided a cool and soothing finish. My only negative is that the shave cream clogged up my razor and was hard to rinse.

Dear Max,
On behalf of Votre Vu Brand Ambassadors everywhere, thank you! My husband experienced both the shiny face and the clogged razor until he figured out ( and that's code for "finally listened") that less is more with these products. I look forward to sharing your review.
Warmly,
Traci
