The pigment
A combination of organic red pigments and plant-based alizarin derived from dyer’s madder (Rubia tinctorum). In Ancient Egypt, renowned beauty Cleopatra used madder on her lips to enhance her natural charms. Fabric dyed with this pigment has been found in Tutankhamun’s tomb, amongst the ruins of Pompeii and in ancient Corinth.
Alizarin is reputed for its extraordinary biological properties.
A unique finish
The power of plant-based pigments produces a colour that adapts to the natural tone and pH level of your lips.
For a more intense shade, simply layer up the colour.

The promise of
excellence
What is vegetal colour ?
Le Rouge Français stands out as a global pioneer in the use of plant pigments to color its makeup products. We draw from a rich library of hundreds of dye plants, selected for their unique coloring qualities and biological benefits. Such as madder, sorghum, indigo, Corsican chestnut, and Damask rose.
These plants are harvested in their endemic environment, in order to preserve the biodiversity and local economy of the regions where they are cultivated.
Why do other brands use petrochemical colour ?
99% of the industry extensively uses synthetic colours derived from petrochemistry – petroleum derivatives – or at best from minerals, which are non-renewable resources. They are very economical, easy to manufacture and reproduce. If we use plant pigments, it is to guarantee absolute harmlessness, to protect your skin and your health.
Why Titanium dioxyde can relate to an issue ?
Titanium dioxide, or TiO2, is still permitted as a cosmetic ingredient in its micro-particle form – with particle size larger than nano-particles. Titanium dioxide has been banned from the food industry since January 1st, 2020, due to a proven carcinogenic risk. Considering that a woman ingests an average of 4 kg of lipstick in her lifetime, we have chosen to remove it from all our formulas to guarantee you absolute safety.
Why is ECOCERT Organic certification so valuable ?
The ECOCERT certification is currently the most challenging international cosmetic certification, going well beyond the blacklists established directly by brands or distributors. It controls the perfect traceability of products and restricts the use of numerous ingredients harmful to your health or the environment.
It guarantees that the manufacturer’s formulas are natural or organic and that the eco-packaging is completely recyclable. The ECOCERT certification is renewed every year following an internal audit.
What are the benefits of your products?
All our products are formulated with oils, butters, waxes, and other ingredients from organic farming, containing natural actives. They help to hydrate and protect your skin daily. We also incorporate other natural active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, which restores volume and tone, as well as probiotics that maintain skin balance
How do I refill my lipstick case?
Our lipsticks are refillable. They consist of a transparent, bio-sourced case that you can keep for life, and a refillable cartridge containing the lipstick stick. Once your product is finished, you can buy a new cartridge of the same shade or a different shade to vary your choices.
