100% — Not 99.9% — Pure Skincare: SwissClinical

At CosmoProf 2009, we found some unique emerg­ing prod­ucts and com­pa­nies that are new to the US market.

SwissClinical Natural Skincare

Located on the Swiss Riviera, in the heart of the Swiss Pre-Alps, Swissclinical is one of these orig­i­nal com­pa­nies with a great con­cept in sell­ing hon­est, pure prod­ucts.  Great prod­ucts such as la prairie Switzerland have put this lit­tle coun­try high on the inter­na­tional beauty prod­ucts wish list.

The name says it all.   Swiss is syn­ony­mous with fresh air, active moun­tain hik­ing with a clean approach to prod­ucts.    It’s true that the Swiss like to keep things neat and tidy, but their com­mit­ment to the envi­ron­ment puts the rest of the world to shame. 60% of their energy needs are met by hydro­elec­tric power, and each year they pro­duce half the amount of waste per head that Americans do.  This ded­i­ca­tion to the envi­ron­ment with a clin­i­cal sci­en­tific approach to skin­care results in prod­ucts avoid­ing parabens, col­orants, min­eral oils and other wor­ry­ing syn­thet­ics so it won’t be harm­ful for your skin.

Clinical and sci­en­tific rep­re­sents effec­tive ingre­di­ents and the Company’s ded­i­ca­tion to being hon­est about the pack­ag­ing and ingredients.

The orig­i­nal line of prod­ucts launched four years ago in salons and spas. Currently, the dis­tri­b­u­tion is in through lux­ury spas (mostly in Hawaii) and bou­tique stores such as Fred Segal.

We met up with the President and Founder, François Fragnière who has a strong per­sonal phi­los­o­phy of bring­ing hon­est, high qual­ity, nat­ural Swiss ingre­di­ents to prod­ucts through a socially respon­si­ble com­pany.  Francois is a pas­sion­ate vision­ary with a gen­uine ded­i­ca­tion to mak­ing the world a bet­ter place. Francois cre­ated the Swissclinical Foundation to help chil­dren in need in the Stara Zagora region of Bulgaria by improv­ing the med­ical ortho­pe­dic ser­vices avail­able to them.   The foun­da­tion is funded through pri­vate dona­tions and through the pro­ceeds from sales of Swissclinical skin care products.

We look for­ward to review­ing their newest skin­care line with pure nat­ural ingre­di­ents and no chem­i­cals as well as their antiox­i­dant and anti­ag­ing night prod­ucts so stay tuned.
