Garu Paris

Our charter

Formulation Charter

For the Maison, respectful formulation is not minimalism that sacrifices efficacy. It is the choice of every ingredient, for a precise reason.

What we formulate with

  • Certified plant-based and biotechnological actives
  • Vitamins and acids dosed to act
  • Gentle preservatives, accepted by organic standards
  • Fragrances free from phthalates
  • Textures free from controversial silicones

The right concentration

A 2% niacinamide serum does not act like a 5% serum. Our dosages are based on dermatological studies and feedback from our community. No active ingredient is present in trace amounts merely for marketing purposes.

Origin and traceability

Each raw material is audited at the source. We prioritize short European supply chains and indicate the origin of key active ingredients on product pages.

The Method

Each formula follows three steps: the choice of active ingredients according to our charter; development at an ISO 22716 certified site; and finally, batch-by-batch quality control before sale.

The Skin Audit identifies the most useful active ingredients for your skin within our collection.

Efficacy

Each active ingredient addresses a documented skin need; its dosage follows dermatological studies.
