OUR EXPERTISE
We are a French, family-run and independent laboratory whose high standards are at the heart of our dermo-cosmetic skincare products. In order to guarantee the development of excellent products, we have our own research and development center located in Île-de-France.
Since Topicrem was founded in 1993, our aim has been to offer skin care products for all types of sensitive skin, combining dermatological expertise and well-being. To achieve this, we follow a reasoned formulation charter which guarantees efficacy and tolerance by giving priority to ingredients of natural origin, whenever possible.
Provide protective hydration
Aware that moisturizing and strengthening the skin barrier on a daily basis are essential actions to preserve the health and beauty of your skin, we develop treatments that provide essential hydration to the sensitive skin of the whole family in order to protect them as best as possible from the hazards of everyday life. Thus, our dermatological treatments guarantee you at least 24H¹ of hydration.
Select high tolerance ingredients with proven effectiveness
Above all, we choose our ingredients for their proven effectiveness and tolerance. To do this, we follow a reasoned formulation charter that defines the requirements we impose on ourselves regarding our formulas.
Our main dermatological reference ingredients are inspired by the pharmacopoeia, a standard that guarantees the quality, purity, efficacy and safety of these ingredients. Our active ingredients are selected, at the right dose, on the basis of scientific evidence (publications, in-vitro/in-vivo tests, etc.).
Whenever possible, we always favor dermatological ingredients of natural origin. Thus, our formulas contain on average 88%² of ingredients of natural origin.
Developing formulas clinically tested on sensitive skin
In order to guarantee optimal tolerance, our treatments are systematically tested under dermatological control on sensitive skin by independent organizations. We have thus tested our formulas on more than 3,000³ sensitive skins.
We also evaluate, under pediatric control, all our products intended for the delicate skin of newborns and babies and add gynecological or ophthalmological checks when the product requires it.
Throughout the development process, we are supported by independent toxicologists, ensuring objective expertise and a critical look at the safety and harmlessness of our formulas.
Providing care with effectiveness proven by science and approved by patients
The effectiveness of our formulas is demonstrated by rigorous clinical studies. Because the satisfaction of all sensitive skins remains at the heart of our concerns, all our products are subject to usage tests with groups of volunteers all over the world.
We regularly conduct observational studies in hospitals or at dermatologists' offices to demonstrate the positive impact of our treatments on various skin problems. More than 20 observational studies have been conducted worldwide.
Our collaboration with more than 12,000⁴ healthcare professionals as well as patient associations demonstrates our commitment to patient well-being in order to best meet their needs.
Being at the service of wellness dermatology
Because we know that the skin is a living organ that interacts with our brain and thus plays an essential role in everyone's well-being, we pay particular attention to the sensoriality of our products. Comfortable textures, delicate fragrances, pleasure of application are all essential prerequisites that make our treatments a moment of well-being allowing everyone to feel confident and to open up more to others to fully enjoy life.
We develop formulas with a positive emotional impact and we are committed to taking this approach further by testing the impact of our products on everyone's well-being. In 2024, our dermatological innovations were validated at more than 95%⁵ for their positive impact on well-being.
Ensuring French manufacturing born from pharmaceutical excellence
Created by an independent pharmaceutical laboratory more than 30 years ago, we design all of our products in our laboratories in Dammarie les Lys. They have been manufactured in France since our beginnings in 1993. Finally, our factory has always been inspired by the control standards required in the pharmaceutical sector.
Engage in a responsible approach
Reducing the environmental impact of our formulas and packaging is part of our continuous improvement approach.
To do this, we follow a responsible purchasing charter for the supply of our ingredients and raw materials and we carefully select each ingredient in our formulas, to keep only the essentials.
We have removed all paper instructions and are removing all secondary packaging as soon as possible. We are committed to increasing the use of recycled and bio-sourced materials, while ensuring the recyclability of our packaging. Our new graphic charter has also been an opportunity to save 8 tonnes⁶ of cardboard thanks to the removal of certain cases.
We are aware that there is still a long way to go, but we firmly believe that the accumulation of these small actions will contribute to having a positive impact on our planet.
