Made in Switzerland
In order for a cosmetic brand to be allowed to bear the stamp "SWISS MADE", at least 60% of manufacturing costs must be incurred in Switzerland, and at least 80% of research, development, and production costs must be incurred in Switzerland. Additionally, the production of bulk, filling into primary packaging, and legally required quality controls must all be carried out in Switzerland.
The following activities are carried out in Switzerland or at the specified location in Switzerland:
- the production of the bulk
- filling the cosmetic product into the primary packaging or assembling the bulk of the application devices into a ready-to-use cosmetic product, and
- the legally required or industry-wide standardized quality controls and certifications

Dermatologically and Clinically Tested
Before launching, we conduct dermatological testing and, for some formulations, clinical testing to observe how patients respond to our formulations.
We evaluate three main components in our clinical trials:
- the effect on the skin through instrumentally determined effectiveness with before and after pictures
- clinical end-use by an independent dermatological testing laboratory
- assessment by the patient
