Sensitive skin compatibility study
Study type: Human patch test conducted under dermatological control.
Subjects: 20 subjects, aged 18 to 70, female and/or male, Fitzpatrick phototypes II to IV, with sensitive skin on the body.
Products tested: 01 Day Cream, 02 Night Cream, 03 Everyday Oil, 05 Face and Eye Essence, 06 Body Toning Essence, 07 Face Wash, 08 Intense Restoring Eye Cream and 09 Hand Cream.
Method: Products were applied under occlusive patch conditions.

Supported claims: Suitable for sensitive skin. Compatible with sensitive skin. Dermatologically tested on sensitive skin.
Eczema-prone skin suitability study
Study type: Controlled, assessor-blinded and randomised clinical study carried out in July 2025 by an independent testing laboratory.
Subjects: 20 healthy male and female participants, aged 18 to 70 years, with sensitive skin type and skin prone to eczema.
Method: The skin irritation potential was evaluated alongside a positive control, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, and a negative control, sterile water, following four consecutive 23-hour occlusive patch applications. Reactions were assessed approximately one hour after each patch removal.
Products tested: 01 Day Cream, 02 Night Cream, 03 Everyday Oil, 04 Coconut Melt, 05 Face and Eye Essence, 06 Body Toning Essence, 07 Face Wash, 08 Intense Restoring Eye Cream and 09 Hand Cream.
Conclusion: No palpable reactions were observed. All tested products were classified as well tolerated by subjects with sensitive skin and skin prone to eczema.
Supported claim: Suitable for people who may be prone to eczema.
02 Night Cream hydration study
A clinical trial indicated that 02 Night Cream has long-lasting hydrating effects for up to 8 hours.
After a single application in 21 healthy adult subjects aged 18 to 69, skin hydration significantly increased at 2, 4 and 8 hours compared with baseline values and controls.
Supported claim: Clinically tested for hydration effects lasting up to 8 hours under the study conditions.
03 Everyday Oil comedogenicity study
Repeated applications under normal conditions of use were carried out for four consecutive weeks.
The study included 22 subjects aged 20 to 50, with Fitzpatrick phototypes II to IV, combination or oily skin, and acne-retentional and/or inflammatory elements.
The study concluded that 03 Everyday Oil demonstrated very good skin acceptability and was devoid of comedogenic potential under the study conditions.
Supported claim: Evaluated for comedogenic potential and shown to be non-comedogenic under study conditions.
05 Face & Eye Essence atopy-prone skin compatibility study
Clinical trials indicated that 05 Face and Eye Essence demonstrated very good skin compatibility in subjects with a history of atopy, including eczema and skin allergies.
Repeated applications under controlled conditions in male and female subjects aged 39 to 66, with Fitzpatrick phototypes II to IV and a personal or family history of atopy, did not result in clinical features of atopic disease.
Supported claim: Clinically tested for compatibility in subjects with a history of atopy.
Hydration for up to 8 hours
Clinically tested after a single application in 21 healthy adult subjects. Significant hydration increase at 2, 4 and 8 hours.
