  • Decleor Decleor
    SKIN BODY MIND

    When Decléor was founded in 1974, beauty therapist and brand ambassador Solange Dessimoulie had a genuine philosophy: “to feel good in your body and soul, to feel good in your own skin. A philosophy as important today as it was the day Decléor was founded. The new Decléor credo, Skin - Body - Mind, is not some mystical manifesto. It represents an enhancement of our initial concept: “the art of cultivating inner harmony”.

    SKIN

    The power of plants on every inch of skin. Decléor knows that nature remains the best antidote there is to the challenges of urban life. Imagine the very best fertilizer, combatting the problem at its source, while providing the essential nutrients to reinforce the epidermis. And cultivate its beauty, day after day.

    BODY

    Slowly but surely, the body is reborn in the intimacy of the cabin. The comforting touch of a hand, always in contact with skin. Professional rituals choreographed to foster well-being and crescendo-effect performance. Surprising textures that are rich, generous and delicious in equal measure. This is the Decléor bodycare philosophy, offering a truly unique experience.

    MIND

    Re-balancing emotion

    Combatting stress with breathing exercises is a good start. Combatting stress by inhaling active scents is far better. Aromachology represents the power of active scents to deeply re-balance emotions. It might seem insignificant, and yet it is a simple way of clearing the mind and taking a few moments to relax and replenish energy reserves in the face of daily urban stress.
  • Carita Carita
    The only luxury professional beauty brand, Carita offers an alternative to cosmetic surgery thanks to the combined efficacy of high performance products and its exclusive CINETIC™ LIFT EXPERT machine.

They discovered Total Beauty long before people began to talk about it and had one single desire: revealing each woman’s beauty by providing her tailor-made treatments and ultraefficient cosmetic products.

    Treatments to turn back time.

    CARITA TREATMENTS SHOW REMARKABLE "BEFORE AND AFTER" RESULTS.

    Cornerstone of all Carita treatments, the exclusive high-tech machine CINETICTM LIFT EXPERT offers an alternative to invasive surgery gestures thanks to three breakthrough technologies: Leds, ultrasounds and microcurrents, combined for unequalled results on firmness, wrinkles and skin texture. Toner, smoother and more radiant, the skin is transformed and the years fall away.
