Phytomer's skincare uses proven scientific research to harness the power of the sea
Since the company launched 40 years ago, Phytomer has made research its driving force, focusing on the power of the sea in skincare.
At Phytomer, we not only create our own active ingredients – we also manage their development and testing, in order to ensure both enhanced performance and the highest sensorial qualities.
1/ INGREDIENTS FROM THE SEA
Our first mission is to discover and study new algae, marine plants and microorganisms that have high potential for skincare. We work on innovative, pioneering algae cultivation programmes that allow us to preserve natural resources while ensuring an optimum level of purity and effectiveness.
We are one of the only laboratories in the world that has mastered marine biotechnology. Our expertise lies in the use of microorganisms to produce or process unprecedented active ingredients. Our selected marine microorganisms are able to produce marine sugars that are unique, 100 per cent natural – and very effective.
For example, our exclusive XMF – a fantastic biotechnological marine sugar created in our laboratories – has the amazing ability to smooth wrinkles in just one hour.
2/ PROVEN EFFECTIVENESS ON THE SKIN
Our second mission is to test our marine active ingredients directly on skin cells in order to get a true picture of their effectiveness. We are one of the few cosmetic brands in the world that does in vitro or in vivo testing on-site; our scientists work with skin cells, skin tissue, or reconstructed skin models. We also cooperate with university platforms, researchers and skin biology experts.
Once the active ingredients are tested, we conduct external clinical testing on finished products under strict dermatological control, in order to guarantee the best standards of quality and efficacy on the market.
