Du temps pour moi
Take time for yourself
Bienvenue,
You are about to open La Box Wellness.
We are so glad you are here. On this page is everything you want to know about the products you received and the artisans and brands who made them.
And that’s not all. To help you unwind, we have created an audio experience that will transport you to Provence through an immersion into French modern poetry. Ready to relax? Let’s get started…
P.S.: There is a survey at the bottom of this page to help us improve with our next Box. We would be so incredibly grateful if you could fill it in. Merci !
What is self-care à la française?
There’s been a lot of chatter around self-care these past few years, and more lately around the topics of mental health and vulnerability. About time! I believe it is in the French DNA (or, at least, the Provençal one!) to learn when to slow down and to be content with what we have. The French work to live and don’t live to work. We also believe happiness lies in the simplest moments with friends, family, or doing the things we love.
Via La Box Wellness, you are about to create a simple moment of “bien-être” and embrace what it’s like to “prendre soin de soi” (take care of oneself), the French way.
What’s in La Box Wellness
Lavender Eye Pillow by Les Perlettes
I discovered Les Perlettes last year as I was looking to decrease my waste in my every day habits, and was so pleasantly surprised with what Sylvie, its creator, offers. A collection of linen in the highest quality, made with love in Provence.
The eye pillow in La Box is the ultimate natural remedy to Sunday scaries (or puffy eyes). Use it warm (no longer than 30 seconds in the microwave, at 600 watts) or cold (after one hour in the freezer, in a bag). Rest it on your eyes for 10 to 20 minutes, et voilà! You will feel appeased and ready for a new day.
“Jolies Mains” Almond Hand Set by Panier des Sens
Panier des Sens is one of our favorite cosmetic brands from Provence. Their natural and vegan formulas are designed and conceived in the South of France, always encouraging short circuits and local partnerships.
After falling in love with their Peonies Skincare travel set last summer, we are introducing you to their “Pretty Hands” Soothing Almond set: a hand cream and nail and cuticle oil duo, a perfect, much-needed beauty ritual at every season of life.
Hand-poured Candle by Les Choses Simples
An enchanting blend of rustic amber and french lavender with added notes of tonka bean, vanilla and clary sage. A calm blend that invites to dream and relaxation.
Hand-poured in Provence into an apothecary amber glass jar. Thanks to the lid, you can keep the scent of your candle longer.
Provence Carnet by Best French Forever
Over the years, I’ve experienced the healing power of writing. It is an essential part of my self-care routine, that is why I am bringing you today a Provence-inspired carnet (notebook) which I designed and hope you’ll use as a journal of gratitude, a travel companion, or whatever makes you feel good! The drawings represent herbs you will find in the Provence countryside and cuisine: lavender, rosemary, thyme, basil, mint…
It’s time: bienvenue to your moment of self-care.
Your candle is lit, your hands hydrated and your eye pillow ready for use. Now let us take you on an immersion into French poetry via our audio experience. We have chosen three French poems, which all relate to Provence. Ready to embark? Press play, then close your eyes…
