A clear view on our ingredients
We are no chemists, but we surround ourselves with experienced people in the natural cosmetics industry. All formulations are 100% French. Our partner laboratories in Bretagne and Grasse work with us to put their French cosmetic heritage to good use.
At the start of each new formula, we put together blacklist of ingredients. You will NOT find sodium lauryl/laureth sulphate, petrochemical derivates, silicones or microplastic in our formulas. All the ingredients are cultivated with respect for the planet, in a traceable manner, as locally as possible.
