Yes!

- Nous faisons tester nos produits par un laboratoire scientifique indépendant, spécialisé dans l’évaluation des perturbateurs endocriniens
- We ban a RED LIST of ingredients from our formulas, with restrictions that go beyond European regulations, already known as some of the strictest and safest in the world.
No secret recipe
All our cosmetic products are made from three families of ingredients. They combine efficacy, tolerability and enjoyment with complete safety throughout their life.
Our recipe?
- Active ingredients from the plant world, for product efficacy
- One or more excipients, to create a pleasant texture and ensure proper diffusion of the active ingredients.
- Other ingredients to complete our formulas: a conservation system to preserve them over time, pH stabilisers or fragrances for some products to give more pleasure to the senses, etc.
A controlled process at every stage
To create formulations that combine quality, safety and efficacy, these parameters must be checked at every stage of our product's development. To do this, we carry out over 450 measures and tests with an independent toxicologist.
Each product undergoes 450 measures and tests
Each product has to pass 450 measures and tests
These include stability tests under normal and extreme conditions, product safety tests (evaluation of antimicrobial protection), in vitro safety tests on reconstructed skin models and in vivo clinical tests under dermatological control.
Each product must pass all of these tests before it can be marketed.
An independent toxicologist involved at all stages
To ensure the safety of our products, we call in an independent toxicologist (i.e. someone who is not employed by our laboratories).
Their mission? To intervene at all key stages of our product development:
- Evaluate and participate in the approval of each ingredient
- Validate the formula and check its safety for babies and pregnant women
- To check and approve the safety of the finished product before it is marketed.
No product is marketed without this expert's validation at each of the above stages.
Monitoring the quality and safety of the finished product
We carefully monitor the life of the product once it is on the market. We handle all complaints and adverse effects with the utmost care and attention as part of our quality and cosmetovigilance process.
