SUMMER ESSENTIALS LIST BY YVES ROCHER
words NATALIE-ANNE GAL
For summer, it’s always best to keep the essentials close at hand. As we wander through medieval quarters, dive into the ocean with sun-kissed, salty skin, or pause for a picnic accompanied by cicadas, we need products that are simple, effective, and built to withstand the sun and heat. In recent years, there’s been growing conversation in fashion, skincare, and haircare about sun damage and how to truly protect yourself. Yves Rocher has created a complete essentials package with these needs in mind.
Hair Care
Yves Rocher has embraced the growing conversation around “skinification,” giving more attention to scalp care. Since healthy hair begins at the roots, we achieve the best results by focusing on the foundation of our hair. The Balance Scalp Serum, made with 96% natural ingredients, protects and hydrates the scalp, helping hair become more luscious and resilient.
Of course, the sea (beautiful as it is) can leave your hair dry, sticky, and damaged if salt isn’t rinsed out properly. To combat this, Yves Rocher developed the Nutrition Hair Care line, enriched with organic camelina oil from Brittany. The package includes:
Nourishing Shampoo (sulfate-free)
Nourishing Conditioner
Intensive Nourishing Mask
Ultra-Nourishing Hair Oil
Ultra-Nourishing Leave-in Cream
There’s also the Monoï de Tahiti 3-in-1 Hydrating Hair Mask, inspired by Polynesian beauty traditions and natural island ingredients. And of course, no summer essentials list is complete without Yves Rocher’s iconic shower gels in the scents of summer. Our personal favourites being:
Wild Seaweed & Sea Fennel
Coconut
Oat & Buckwheat
Mango and Coriander
Lemon Verbena and Chamomile Flower
…and many more
Skincare
Yves Rocher’s Sun Care & After Sun collection helps protect skin from sun damage, including premature aging, while stimulating the skin’s natural defenses, because we could never truly give up sunbathing. Alongside it is the 35+ Lift Pro-Collagen line, an advanced anti-aging treatment designed to enhance the skin’s natural collagen abilities. The collection includes:
Lifting Anti-Wrinkle Serum
Dual-Action Concentrate
Day Cream
Night Cream
Eye Cream
Intensive Anti-Wrinkle Day/Night Cream
At the end of the day, it’s about finding what works for you, mixing and matching the right essentials. Since its beginnings in the 1960s, Yves Rocher has been known for soft, light, and simple products, defined by quality and that countryside French charm we all adore.
