What does ECOCERT Organic certification offer me?

ECOCERT certification is currently the most stringent international cosmetics certification, going far beyond the exclusion lists established by brands or retailers themselves. It ensures full product traceability and restricts the use of numerous ingredients that may be harmful to your health or the environment.It guarantees that manufacturers' formulas are natural or organic and that their eco-friendly packaging is fully recyclable. ECOCERT certification is renewed annually following an internal audit.

What are the benefits of your products?

All our products are formulated with oils, butters, waxes and other ingredients sourced from organic farming, naturally rich in beneficial compounds. They help hydrate and protect your skin every day. We also incorporate other natural active ingredients, such as hyaluronic acid, which helps restore volume and firmness, and probiotics, which help maintain the skin’s natural balance.

Are your nail polishes natural, and do they last?

Our nail polishes are 14-free and formulated with a base containing over 81% bio-based ingredients, including potato and cassava starch. Their colors are enhanced with natural pigments derived from red and brown algae. They deliver excellent wear and color intensity, comparable to conventional nail polishes.To protect your manicure, we recommend applying our nail lacquer as both a base coat and a top coat.

The discovery of amphorae and faience pottery found in the famous Uluburun shipwreck in Turkey, testifies to its use in decoration.

THE PROMISE OF EXCELLENCE

WHAT IS PLANT-BASED COLOUR?

+ −

Le Rouge Français stands out as a global pioneer in the use of plant-based pigments to color its makeup products. We draw from an extensive library of hundreds of botanical dye plants, carefully selected for their unique coloring properties and biological benefits. These include madder, sorghum, indigo, Corsican chestnut and Damask rose. These plants are native to the regions where they are grown, helping to preserve biodiversity and support local economies.

WHY DO OTHER BRANDS USE PETROCHEMICALS?

+ −

99% of the cosmetics industry relies heavily on synthetic pigments derived from petrochemicals (petroleum-based substances), or at best, mineral pigments, which come from non-renewable resources. These pigments are inexpensive, easy to manufacture and reproduce. We choose plant-based pigments to guarantee absolute safety, protect your skin and safeguard your health.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH TITANIUM DIOXIDE?

+ −

Titanium dioxide, or TiO₂, is still permitted as a cosmetic ingredient in its microparticle form, with particles larger than nanoparticles. Titanium dioxide has been banned from food products due to concerns about its potential carcinogenic effects. Given that women may ingest lipstick over the course of their lifetime, we have chosen to remove titanium dioxide from all our formulas as part of our commitment to product safety.
