Moreover, the French manufactured cosmetics are a guarantee of quality.

 

The French production of cosmetics enjoys a global leader position in this segment. For many countries, cosmetics and perfumes manufactured in France are a symbol of luxury and quality.

The French know-how in these areas became known worldwide. It results in numerous innovations and many registered French patents every year.

The French production means rigorous controls that ensure the quality product.

 

The French cosmetics industry is tightly regulated by mechanisms in order to ensure the quality, safety and authenticity of its products.

 

The French production has been preserved in the exploitation of certain raw materials such as blackcurrant bud and lavender, thanks to the technical progress, the guarantee of superior quality and the proximity of the major Swiss perfumers ( Givaudan, Firmenich ...).

 

Many groups exploit this French know-how. For instance: 70% of the “L’Oreal Luxe” production is hexagonal.
