Rivadouce did not wait for the use of natural ingredients to become fashionable to follow its first intuition, that nature plays a crucial role in the quality of care offered to our skin. Not only do ingredients of natural origin have recognized and sometimes incomparable benefits for the skin, but also, because nature used wisely, offers unparalleled harmlessness to design a "good" skincare product. Natural and even organic, always at the service of caregivers, helpers and dependent people.
Developed for dependent or bedridden people with sensitive and weakened skin, the Rivadouce® vegetable care oil developed by the Rivadis Laboratory is a preventive solution for pressure sores . It can be used on babies, children as well as adults.
For bedridden or dependent people who have sensitive hair and scalp, Rivadis has designed the Rivadouce leave-in shampoo that gently cleanses the hair without water.
