Skincare - L`Occitane
Skincare Contents A L’OCCITANE product always starts with a story, a tradition that captures the very essence of the values of our brand. Every day, we continue to apply our rigorous approach, which ensures that our choice of ingredients – natural, plant-based, and often organic – guarantees the highest level of quality and traceability. Drawing on its knowledge of the age-old properties of plants, L’OCCITANE has developed a range of products that provide a specific response to the needs of different skin types. Formulated in accordance with the principles of phytotherapy, these creams, balms, exfoliators, elixirs, masks and serums offer the skin the secrets to protecting its youth, comfort, radiance and beauty. Our products are tested under dermatological or medical supervision to ensure that they are both effective and safe. All of them offer delightful textures and scents that respect the skin’s natural balance. Through its extensive skincare range, L’OCCITANE draws you into a world of beauty, devoted to your skin… p. 4 L’OCCITANE’s raw materials p. 8 Immortelle Anti-aging care p.12 Almond - Apple First signs of aging p.14 Shea Butter Ultra-rich hydration p.16 Shea & Organic Cotton Ultra-comforting gentle care p.18 Organic Olive Long-lasting hydration p.20 Red Rice Mattifying purifying care p.22 Cade Regenerating strength L’OCCITANE’s raw materials Organic immortelle essential oil Organic apple extract and almonds Shea butter and organic cotton extract Eight years ago, L’OCCITANE discovered an extraordinary plant growing wild in Corsica, with great potential. It owes its name, immortelle, to its exceptional longevity – for even after being picked, the flower never fades. The essential oil obtained from Helichrysum italicum is renowned for its anti-aging benefits. The almond tree is a strong symbol of the Provençal landscape. However, in recent times, its presence has been threatened by more profitable crops. Working with the Alpes de Haute-Provence administration, L’OCCITANE has helped to revive the cultivation of the almond tree by sourcing its almonds directly from local producers. With a focus on preserving the ecological balance of the region, we use apples that are grown in accordance with the rules of organic farming: no pesticides, synthetic fertilisers or GMOs – and picked when they reach maturity. The butter extracted from shea nuts is renowned as a universal, irreplaceable treatment that protects the skin. To soothe the most delicate skin, L’OCCITANE has combined the protective properties of shea butter with the softening properties of organic cotton in its Shea & Organic Cotton range. Traceability Ever since the discovery of this flower’s incredible properties, the picking of wild immortelle has increased, threatening the beauty of the landscape of Balagne, in Corsica. And so, in 2003, L’OCCITANE launched a program to grow and cultivate immortelle in Corsica using organic farming methods. There are now eight farmers involved in this program, who have planted organic immortelle in the region of Aléria and in Balagne. Its quality and traceability are guaranteed from the harvest to the distillation of the plant, which is carried out by three distillers. At present, this program covers 27 hectares of land. By 2011, this figure should reach 50. Patented effectiveness Anti-aging Immortelle essential oil has been patented by L’OCCITANE for its anti-aging effectiveness at three levels (in vitro tests): • It multiplies collagen production by six, thus improving skin firmness and smoothing out wrinkles • It boosts skin microcirculation, promoting cell renewal • It protects against free radicals, to prevent skin aging Traceability The almonds that we use come from orchards in the south of France, such as the one owned by Monsieur Jaubert on the Valensole plateau. In the mill belonging to Emile Noël, the almonds are cold pressed to yield a rich oil. The apples, meanwhile, are cultivated in the region around Gap, where Monsieur and Madame Mégy are among our main suppliers. Patented effectiveness First signs of aging To meet the needs of women aged 25 to 35, our laboratory developed a patented complex that uses almonds and apples from Provence to smooth and protect the skin. This unique combination provides a comprehensive solution to help the skin protect itself against the effects of aging. Traceability In the early 1980s, L’OCCITANE set up a co-development program with the women of Burkina Faso. Our Shea Butter range has been so successful that there are now over 11,000 women working in cooperatives to produce this ingredient for our products. The organic cotton we use comes from Turkey. Effectiveness Dry or very dry skin Sensitive skin The shea butter used in L’OCCITANE’s formulas is the perfect beauty balm for dry or dehydrated skin. It restores the hydrolipidic film, leaving skin softer, more supple and more comfortable. The combination of shea butter and organic cotton extract brings immediate comfort and lasting protection to sensitive and fragile skin. L’OCCITANE’s raw materials Organic olive tree extracts Organic red rice extract Organic cade essential oil A symbol of strength and vitality, the olive tree is capable of surviving in arid conditions. Its resistance to dryness is due to its leaves, which have an amazing ability to regulate water. L’OCCITANE combines the lasting moisturizing powers of olive leaf extract with olive oil and olive water – obtained by cold pressing the fruits. The famous Camargue red rice was discovered at the foot of the Montmajour Abbey. Rich in Vitamin E and natural anti-oxidants, it boasts exceptional nutritional properties. At L’OCCITANE, we discovered that this red rice also offers benefits for the skin. Cade, or wild juniper, grows wild in the scrubland of Provence. When heated, its wood yields an oil that was used by shepherds in the past to protect their faces and hands from the wind and sun. Today, we use cade essential oil in our range of skincare products for men. Traceability Traceability Our organic olive tree extracts come from Provence. The olives are picked with special combs and then cold pressed to produce a water and oil of exceptional purity and quality. The leaves are gathered during the olive harvest or when the olive trees are pruned. We chose to work with «Heureuse Camargue» (Happy Camargue) – a group created in 1960 whose objective is to help the Camargue find an economic base for sustainable development that respects both the environment and local communities. «Heureuse Camargue» works with about fifteen rice producers who grow organic rice. The organic cade that we use comes from the Monts du Vaucluse, near the village of Saumane. The harvesting of cade contributes to the upkeep of the land and the prevention of fires. The trunks are cut up into small chips and then distilled to produce cade essential oil. In January 2009, we obtained Ecocert certification for our cade wood. This change will apply to our formulas in 2009. Effectiveness Dull and dehydrated skin Patented effectiveness Combination and oily skin The olive tree leaf extract is characterised by its sugar content, which provides the skin with optimal and long-lasting hydration*. L’OCCITANE has proved its moisturizing effectiveness through a corneometry** test conducted by an independent laboratory. Enriched with three extracts taken from the olive tree, these products protect the skin, provide day-long hydration and boost radiance. L’OCCITANE has developed an exclusive complex to meet the specific needs of combination and oily skin. It contains a rice extract enriched with zinc (for its balancing properties), rice vinegar (with astringent and purifying benefits) and rice powder to mattify the skin. It’s the perfect combination to leave skin fresh, pure and glowing with health! Traceability Effectiveness Men’s skin L’OCCITANE has developed a deep-cleansing and invigorating complex that meets the specific needs of men’s skin.
