Algologie, a Breton brand of marine cosmetics
Algologie is the brand of marine cosmetic care, born on the Pen Lan peninsula facing the Bréhat archipelago, in Brittany. It is here that the world's first algal field exists in a unique and harsh environment, where winds and tides reign, in the heart of a Natura 2000 reserve. There is an exceptional diversity with over 800 species of algae thriving in this favorable environment. It is an ideal meeting place for the currents of the Arctic and the Gulf Stream, sheltered by the Sillon de Talbert.
It is on this exceptional site that we develop skincare products formulated with marine actives such as algae, which are natural assets for the skin. Algologie offers different ranges of skincare products that adapt to all skin types, for the face, body, and hair.
An exclusively French production
When "100% made in Brittany" and locavore rhyme with Algologie
We are deeply attached to our Breton roots. That's why the production of our cosmetic products is exclusively done here, in France, where we support the local economy. The development of our 100% Breton products is a real commitment for Algologie.
Our Research & Development Laboratory and our factory are located in Pleubian, facing the island of Bréhat. Our logistics, which ship all products, are located in Lannion, in the Côtes d'Armor region. We value the local economy by prioritizing the sourcing of our raw materials in Brittany for a more responsible development.
Natural marine cosmetics for everyone
Innovation in the service of the skin
As pioneers in the use of marine stem cells, we have created ALGO 4Ⓡ, a complex of algae and coastal plant stem cells derived from marine biotechnology. A total of 4 patents have been awarded for our innovation. It is a bio-stimulating complex boosted with seawater that combines effectiveness and respect for the marine ecosystem.
With ALGO 4Ⓡ, results are rapid because the skin naturally recognizes its components. Thus, it systematically reactivates the skin's natural mechanisms by stimulating cellular activities. Guaranteed results to better cope with external aggressions.
Natural and sensory marine care
We are committed to offering natural care for all skin types and desires. Our products are formulated with an average of 95% natural ingredients, with unique textures and aromatic scents that you won't find anywhere else. Marine scents bring an immediate wave of freshness, and the scent of plants provides a feeling of well-being. The unisex scents ensure everyone finds their happiness!
A commitment to nature preservation
Since its inception, Algologie has been committed to clean and responsible beauty, and continues to strengthen its commitments in favor of a cause that is part of the brand's DNA: the preservation of the oceans. Since 2021, we have been a member of the RespectOcean association. RespectOcean is a network of companies united in a sustainable development approach for better integrated management of the Sea and the coastline. We support research on algae and the protection of marine ecosystems.
We have developed a strict "Green and Clean" formulation charter that ensures respect for the skin and the environment by using:
- Algae and coastal plants
- Marine actives obtained by biotechnology
- Minerals
- Extra-pure seawater drawn off our laboratories
- Natural-origin actives
- Vegetable oils
- Mild, safe, and skin-friendly preservatives
We have eliminated mineral oils, PEG, phthalates, silicones, and phenoxyethanol from our formulas.
We continuously improve the eco-design of our products by prioritizing sourcing from local suppliers. Our packaging is recyclable and free from unnecessary instructions. We implement increasingly eco-designed solutions using recycled materials.
