"This original face lotion follows the ancient concept, made from a blend of specific plant extracts. Like Jean-François Arsène Cottan at his time, the choice was made here to take advantage of the synergy of the different plant extracts. The vinegar is an apple vinegar containing, in addition to malic acid, other alpha hydroxy acids that contribute to skin regeneration. It is completed by a complex of fruit acids, Bilberry, Cane sugar, Citrus, and Orange, reinforcing the vinegar’s regenerating action. The slightly acid pH allows having an immediate hygienic action while respecting the hydrolipidic film and the integrity of the cutaneous microbiota. The micelles are generated by a soft surfactant agent, resulting from the glycerin, and of the “non-fatty” fatty substance, in a formula with 100% of ingredients of natural origin."
Jean-Claude Le Joliff, President of the Cosmétothèque.
DIRECTION FOR USE

HISTORY AND FUTURE
Among the very first patents registered by the Société Hygiénique du Docteur COTTAN, is the invention of its beauty vinegar, on July 16, 1842.
Elaborated with fifteen floral essences, with "invigorating, aromatic and healthy" properties, this emblematic lotion rapidly encounters a very strong success in front of its competitors "by its richness in aromatic and balsamic principles, without point cause of siccative nor heating action."
Our reinterpretation of this great classic turns the codes of modernity upside down, with powerful yet microbiota-friendly active ingredients derived from a natural fermentation process and preserved by the very nature of vinegar. In its elegant amber glass bottle, it symbolizes the alliance of ecology and science in the service of beauty.
