A few months back, I decided to splurge on the Agent Nateur HOLI(TRINITY) Travel Set. If you're unfamiliar with Agent Nateur, it's a luxurious skincare and wellness brand that focuses on creating effective formulas made of non-toxic, natural ingredients. I discovered both the line and founder of Agent Nateur, Jena Covello on Instagram last year. Jena has incredible knowledge and insight when it comes to holistic health and wellness. She also has a very captivating presence-- I admire her glamorous, intelligent and authentic personality!
Seeking out clean, non-toxic alternatives is something that I have been working to incorporate into my life. Within the past several years, I've noticed some minor skin issues arise on my face and scalp that I can never seem to get rid of! While I can't confirm they've been caused from toxic products, I made the decision that it can't hurt to transition to as many clean, natural products as possible. This is where Agent Nateur comes in! I became obsessed with the idea of trying out their products. Not only are they clean and non-toxic, the customer reviews are outstanding. I finally bit the bullet and purchased the Holi(Trinity) Travel Set to try-- here's what I think so far!
AGENT NATUER HOLI(TRINITY)
The Holi(Trinity) Collection includes three of Agent Nateur's best selling products: Holi(Water) Pearl and Rose Hyaluronic Essence, the Holi(C) The C Duo Calcium & Vitamin C and Holi(Oil) Refining Ageless Face Serum. The three products have been created to use together in order to achieve a radiant complexion. Here's how each product works:
Holi(Water) Pearl and Rose Hyaluronic Essence
"Restore your skin’s brilliance with holi (water). This lush serum uses organic plant extracts, precious minerals, and natural acid to improve the skin’s elasticity, tighten pores, and gently remove expired cells to reveal a hydrated, dewy glow."
Holi(C) The C Duo Calcium & Vitamin C
"holi (c) is calcium and vitamin C in their most stable, potent state. Our unique dry powder formula won’t oxidize, ensuring that you receive all of its regenerative benefits. Blend with our holi (water) to improve the texture of acne-prone skin, restore firmness, and reveal an ageless radiance."
Holi(Oil) Refining Ageless Face Serum
"Revive your complexion with holi (oil). This youth-illuminating serum contains natural ingredients rich in essential nutrients, antioxidants, and hydrating oils that reduce the appearance of aging, leaving skin supple, lifted, and luminous."
THOUGHTS + IMPRESSIONS
Rather than giving an official review, I wanted to share some general thoughts + "first impressions" on these products. I'll be honest with you guys-- the products are VERY pricey. So much so that I haven't wanted to use them every single day and run out! Because I purchased the travel size, I knew that if I used them every single day and loved them, they would run out quickly and I'd want to purchase them in the full-size. This is the first time I've ever purchased skincare in this price range so it's new + definitely a splurge to me! 😉
I follow the application steps listed on the box: first spray and apply Holi(Water), mix more Holi(Water) + Holi(C) and apply, then finish with Holi(oil). I believe you can use them day + night, however I've mostly used during the daytime.
Holi(Water) - The first thing I notice after applying the Holi(Water) Pearl and Rose Hyaluronic Essence is a slight tightening of my skin. The effect is instant, giving a more firmed and toned complexion. I absolutely love this! It doesn't feel irritating or aggravating at all, it's similar in feeling to when you wash your skin with cold water + your pores close up. Odd to describe but amazing-- it's a very unique product!
Holi(C) - Because I mix the Holi(C) Calcium and Vitamin Duo with the Holi(Water), I still feel the same tightening effect after applying the two together. The Holi(C) is a powdered formula which is also very unique- most Vitamin C products are already in a serum or liquid form. You have to mix this one with the Holi(Water) or some form of liquid to activate the ingredients. It mixes up very easily + absorbs into the skin well. After applying these two products, I can notice a subtle radiance to my skin! It doesn't look greasy, just a subtle shine.
Holi(Oil) - Applying the Holi(Oil) Refining Ageless Face Serum overtop the other products gives a healthy glow and leaves my skin feeling incredibly soft and supple. The first few times I tried this, it left my skin feeling greasy and it seemed to take forever to absorb. I kept hearing Jena share that it doesn't leave your skin with a greasy residue so I assumed I was using too much. Now I just apply 4-5 drops to my whole face and it absorbs a lot faster and doesn't look greasy or shiny. Once it completely absorbs, my skin feels baby soft and very hydrated.
Here are some un-filtered photos I took after using for the first time.
My consensus is- so far, I love! I've really enjoyed using the products and I think it does make my skin more radiant and refined. I haven't used it long enough consistently to see whether it affects any lines or how the long-term effects are, however I'm very happy with the Holi (Trinity) together. Each product also has a very unique, floral scent that is nice. It isn't overpowering or bothersome to me-- some fragrance can be too intense but this one is subtle once applied.
The packaging + brand also feels very luxe and high-quality. Each product (even the travel sized ones in my set) are in glass bottles which I appreciate. The process of applying the products is nice too-- it makes me feel a little special and a little fancy!
While expensive, I do think the quality + ingredients are definitely worth the price of each product. The results show and the peace of mind that the ingredients are safe and non-toxic is important. With anything in life-- whether it be beauty, food, etc., the healthier or "good for you" the product is, the more it usually costs. I'm still trying to hype myself up to splurge on the full-sizes, though ;) My problem is I also want to try everything else!
Have you tried out anything from Agent Nateur? If so, I'd love to hear your thoughts!
