LaVie en Rose

LaVie Organique Skin Care Line

Teeth whitening, eyelash extensions, and all that laser hair removal aside, you’re a natural beauty. Your grandma (the one with the tattooed lip liner) always said so.

Keep your birthday suit in check with LaVie Organique, a new organic skincare line from Brookline spa owner Lavinia Borcau.

Using all-natural ingredients like white tea leaf extract, Hungarian chili peppers, and ground walnuts, the seven-piece collection blends modern must-haves (antioxidants and antiaging properties) with old-school European skin care secrets.

Book a treatment and let Borcau design a custom daily and weekly regime. Or consult the step-by-step outline on her website and go a la carte with an exfoliating cleanser or caffeine-filled eye cream.

After four years of development, the line has everything you need to keep your skin on track.

Except, of course, Nana’s genes.

Available at Lavinia Borcau Skin Care, 29 Harvard Street, Brookline (617-734-5523); online at lavie-organique.com.
