La Roche-Posay is the cosmetics brand specializing in sensitive skin. It takes its name from the eponymous spa resort located in the French department of Vienne . The La Roche-Posay dermatological laboratory offers a wide choice of dermatological treatments and makeup products formulated with La Roche-Posay thermal water, known for its antioxidant, soothing, anti-irritant and decongestant properties.
The pharmaceutical laboratory La Roche-Posay, recommended by 60,000 dermatologists around the world, has dedicated itself for more than 40 years to improving the life of sensitive skin by placing thermal water at the heart of its cosmetic products.
This pure water, naturally rich in Selenium and trace elements, is unique and prodigious. Its composition gives it unique, scientifically proven anti-oxidant, soothing, protective and anti-irritant properties . Coming from the leading thermal dermatology center in Europe and thanks to its virtues, it has treated more than 450,000 patients for their skin problems since its creation in 1905.
Protected against all pollution, it does not undergo any treatment and protects the skin against numerous external aggressions. Checked on average 1000 times per year, this water is so pure that spa guests are encouraged to drink a glass of it per day.
Combining effectiveness, tolerance, expertise and cosmetics, La Roche-Posay's mission is to support dermatologists in the treatment of sensitive skin with problems, from the most moderate to the most severe. The brand offers you a varied offering, to improve everyone's skin comfort and daily well-being.
As a study sponsored by Le Laboratoire Dermatologique demonstrated, more than 50% of women today report having sensitive skin . Due to greater reactivity of epidermal nerve endings and a lowering of the reaction threshold, this sensitivity results in clinical signs : redness, irritation, etc.
Faced with these signs, the La Roche-Posay Dermatological Laboratory sets itself the daily mission of developing, for all of its formulations, a perfect balance between effectiveness and tolerance .
But beyond these clinical signs that the dermatologist knows how to identify, skin sensitivity , like many dermatological pathologies (atopy, eczema, acne, rosacea, etc.), can also have more insidious impacts. Quality of sleep, self-confidence, academic or professional failure... the consequences of skin problems can sometimes ruin the lives of those who suffer from them. However, their importance is too often underestimated. For us, it is inconceivable not to respond to them with the same determination as that given to the symptoms themselves.
