The little story : it was when meeting an old friend heliculteur on an organic salon that Fabrice Pierron, dissatisfied with the formulas he had tried, had the idea to create his own company to care for mucus (or slime) snails . Observer, he had indeed found that a snail that breaks its shell rebuilds in a few days. A mystery that science today is able to illuminate.

This drool is indeed rich with multiple assets also valuable for our skin. Scientists at his laboratory in the Pays de Loire have indeed listed some very interesting molecules: allantoin to regenerate, proteins and vitamins (from selected herbs and plants that are fed gastropods), for the sweetness and health of skin, collagen and elastin anti wrinkles, glycolic acid for exfoliation without aggressiveness.

Once harvested (gently, please), the mucus is purified, concentrated and stabilized in a rigorous hygiene then integrated in an average of 60% in the different references: day care, night care, soaps, contour eyes…

Our opinion : the textures of the creams have nothing to envy to the big ones and the facial care day, for example, retends instantly the features. In the long term, the skin looks lighter and more toned. Bravo also for the softness with which the mucus is taken: hand for each animal, and this is also a guarantee since the animal not stressed, not brutalized gives the best ... of his drool!

The small story : it is by observing the ritual of the women of the Middle East who used to baste their bodies on the areas to be dehaired real eggs of ants to slow down, and even dry up, the regrowth of the hairs that Hattice , the designer came up with the idea of ​​having an epilation paste based on the molecules found in ant eggs.

It is formic acid synthesized in laboratories that weakens the hair follicle to gradually stop the production of hair, and Decelerin ™ that helps slow down its regrowth. This Decelerin ™ is a blend of active ingredients, Lauryl isoquinolinium bromide, to weaken the hair that regrows much finer and aloe vera for softness. The products have been tested by French laboratories and comply with French and European standards.

For optimal efficiency, it is necessary to wax with a technique that pulls the hair (wax, pliers, electric epilator ) so that the bulb is accessible. The ideal is to spread the cream out of the shower when the pores are open. Repeat for five days after hair removal and repeat every three to four weeks.

Our opinion: the cream does not sting, feels nothing and is pleasant to spread. But we must be patient if we suffer from a very dense hair and very dark. Ideal for the face, for blondes who want to see disappear a down on the legs, which will be obvious ... in about 6 months. The others will have to wait (sometimes for two years) but it is a good plan for all those who can not or do not want to afford a laser hair removal .

The story : Savéria Coste is used for its brand Garancia to use molecular biology laboratories that also work for pharmacy. These have isolated in the venom of a viper a protein, waglerin which has relaxing effects on muscle contractions. After having purified it, they isolated the beneficial active ingredients: twenty-three amino acids which were then grafted onto chains of molecules (synthetic peptides) for better penetration into the skin.

The results are astonishing: not only does the formula have " botox like" effects on wrinkles by decreasing the micro-contractions of the muscles, but we are witnessing an increase in good collagen , which ensures rebound and tone to the skin. Finally, we added to this amazing formula other peptides that boost the production of collagen by our cells. Results for one month, verified in the laboratory: fewer contractions (-41% wrinkles) and collagen whose production is optimized and whose quality is three times higher than that obtained with conventional assets.

Our opinion : a delicious texture that smoothes. Wrinkles less marked in the first month, features more rested. A product that legitimately celebrates its 10 years of success.
