There is no such thing as chance, only encounters. And our story began with a rare encounter: that with Le Cap-Ferret. An exceptional place, with remarkable flora, cradled by the waters of the Atlantic Ocean and those of the Bay of Arcachon.

Cap Ferret quickly became a fabulous source of inspiration for an ambitious but meaningful project: to create exceptional anti-ageing cosmetics with visible, clinically-proven efficacy, certified organic and 100% Made in France.

Behind this project, our aim was, remains and will continue to be to offer remarkably effective anti-ageing skin care.

To achieve this, we discovered that by combining large numbers of active ingredients from the Atlantic Ocean and flora, we could cover more of the skin's needs and benefit from remarkable synergies to prevent and correct the signs of ageing: more active ingredients, fewer products, more results, the founding approach for a Global Anti-Ageing Solution.

EXCEPTIONAL CERTIFIED ORGANIC CARE

After 25 years of consulting for the pharmaceutical industry, François Mignol - a Doctor of Pharmacy - created Laboratoires du Cap-Ferret in 2015 to develop ultra-high-level formulated skincare products dedicated to anti-ageing, with clinically proven efficacy, certified organic and ‘Made in France’.

He has made it his mission to improve the health and beauty of the skin, basing his work on a motto: facts, nothing but facts.

Her main conviction, the founding pillar of the brand, is based on the absolute necessity of taking charge of the skin's ageing process. Firstly, in prevention, from the age of 25, when our production of collagen and elastin diminishes, causing the first damage to the deep layers of the dermis, invisible ‘on the surface’ but which will become so a few years later. Then to correct these signs: fine lines, wrinkles, complexion, facial contours, elasticity, puffiness and dark circles, age-related spots, hormonal imperfections, etc.

To do this, it draws on the forces of nature, which is overflowing with active ingredients with powerful anti-ageing properties.

The brand was created in Cap-Ferret itself, a remarkable source of inspiration thanks to its wealth of active ingredients of plant and marine origin.

It then builds an offer based on the scientific data on its active ingredients and on the strength of clinical studies validating the performance of its products. And, of course, it takes great pride in submitting its products to the opinions of its customers, who are posted on the brand's website without any selection.

To achieve this, each of Laboratoires du Cap-Ferret's skin care products contains an exceptional number of anti-ageing active ingredients of plant and marine origin, used in optimal concentrations. These active ingredients are selected for their richness in micro-nutrients, and therefore for their benefits to the health and beauty of the skin.

In response to the self-proclaimed ‘clean beauty’ of too many brands, the brand's answer is organic certification by independent bodies. And of course, animal testing of products (and their ingredients) is ‘totally and forever excluded’, confirms the brand's founder.

Convinced that it's important to make responsible choices, he has opted for
100% ‘Made in France’ production.

This is how Laboratoires du Cap Ferret came to be: exceptional formulations dedicated to preventing and correcting the signs of skin ageing, clinical proof of effectiveness, an organic and ethical range, 100% Made in France.
