Algologie, a Breton brand of marine cosmetics

Algologie is a marine skincare brand born on the Pen Lan peninsula, facing the Bréhat archipelago in Brittany.

Algologie is a marine cosmetics brand, born on the Pen Lan peninsula, facing the Bréhat archipelago in Brittany. It is here that one of the world’s richest seaweed fields thrives in a unique and unspoiled environment shaped by winds and tides, in the heart of a Natura 2000 reserve. This exceptional site is home to over 800 species of algae, benefiting from the meeting of Arctic and Gulf Stream currents, sheltered by the Sillon de Talbert.

It is in this remarkable setting that we develop skincare products formulated with marine active ingredients such as algae—true natural assets for the skin. Algologie offers a wide range of skincare products tailored to all skin types, for the face, body, and hair.

Exclusively French production

When “100% made in Brittany” meets a locavore approach

We are deeply rooted in our Breton heritage. That is why the production of our cosmetic products takes place exclusively in France, supporting the local economy. Developing 100% Breton products is a true commitment for Algologie.

Our Research & Development Laboratory and manufacturing site are located in Pleubian, facing the island of Bréhat. Our logistics center is based in Lannion, in the Côtes-d’Armor region. We prioritize local sourcing of our raw materials in Brittany to promote responsible and sustainable development.

Natural marine cosmetics for everyone

Innovation in the service of the skin

As pioneers in the use of marine stem cells, we developed ALGO 4Ⓡ, a complex combining algae and coastal plant stem cells derived from marine biotechnology. This innovation has been recognized with four patents. It is a bio-stimulating complex enhanced with seawater, combining effectiveness with respect for the marine ecosystem.

With ALGO 4Ⓡ, results are visible quickly, as the skin naturally recognizes its components. It helps reactivate the skin’s natural mechanisms by stimulating cellular activity, strengthening its ability to defend against external aggressions.

Natural and sensory marine skincare

We are committed to offering natural skincare for all skin types and needs. Our formulas contain an average of 95% natural ingredients, with unique textures and delicate, aromatic scents. Marine notes provide an instant feeling of freshness, while plant-based fragrances enhance well-being. Our unisex fragrances are designed for everyone.

A commitment to preserving nature

Since its creation, Algologie has been committed to clean and responsible beauty. We continue to strengthen our actions in favor of ocean preservation—an integral part of our DNA. Since 2021, we have been a member of the RespectOcean association, a network of companies dedicated to sustainable development and responsible management of marine and coastal environments.

We support research on algae and actively contribute to the protection of marine ecosystems.

We have established a strict “Green & Clean” formulation charter to ensure respect for both skin and environment, using:

• Algae and coastal plants
• Marine active ingredients derived from biotechnology
• Minerals
• Ultra-pure seawater sourced near our laboratories
• Naturally derived active ingredients
• Plant-based oils
• Mild, safe, and skin-friendly preservatives
