From her bucolic Vermont farm, the founder guarantees local, traceable production, from plant distillation to final packaging, ensuring the freshness of every product. Her 100% natural formulas are distinguished by their complexity, emphasizing the multiplicity of active ingredients for maximum efficacy. Elixir Vitae, reformulated with 72 high-performance active ingredients, is a perfect example, incorporating cutting-edge technologies such as red algae grown in a photobioreactor.

Its products incorporate ingredients such as Manuka honey, Australian grapes and kiwis, all sourced from local producers practicing sustainable agriculture. Certified organic and vegan, the brand carefully selects these ingredients for their moisturizing, antioxidant and regenerating properties.

Augustinus Bader

Augustinus Bader stands out for its clean, ultra-effective formulas, derived from innovative medical treatments. Founded on Professor Bader’s TFC8 complex, the brand benefits from 30 years of research into tissue engineering and stem cells. Unlike seasonal trends and ephemeral ingredients, each product is designed to be preventative, corrective and adaptable. The brand’s success lies in its ability to deliver visible, long-lasting results. It relies on science rather than marketing.

Aurelia London

Aurelia London, pioneer in probiotic-based skincare. Each care product is designed to solve a range of skin problems, thanks to patented Protida technology. It acts on immune triggers over-stimulated by stress, pollution or UV rays. These external aggressions cause oxidative stress to cells. This leads to sensitivities, imperfections, dullness and premature aging. By calming this inflammatory response, the brand restores the skin’s natural balance, helping to restore an even, luminous complexion. Unlike other cosmetics brands using probiotics, Aurelia London offers a targeted approach that ensures lasting benefits.

Ulé

The Ulé project, founded by Lindsay Azpitarte, is based on a vertical farm located in Saint-Nom-la-Bretèche, Yvelines. This farm, developed by start-up Tower Farm, has been experimenting with soilless urban agriculture since 2017. On 250 square meters, Ulé grows three flagship plants. Tulsi, known for its de-stressing properties, coleus with its protective virtues and centella, a regenerative plant. These adaptogenic plants are generally grown in India, but Ulé produces them in short circuits.
