Top Health Award: 3 questions to Asepta

For more than 75 years, Asepta Laboratories have been manufacturing and distributing dermo-cosmetic treatments entirely designed and manufactured in the Principality of Monaco. The range of their products evolves and renews itself according to the progress of cosmetology and the era of time. In order to learn a little more about the flagship products of the laboratories and their history, we asked them our 3 questions.

1 / Can you tell us about the different products in the D’ame Nature range? What are they ? Why did you put forward a formula with 91% natural products?

Since 1943, Asepta laboratories have been listening to users and innovating to meet their expectations. Today, we are witnessing the emergence of a new generation of consumers: for them, pharmaceutical guarantees and the effectiveness of formulas are essential but insufficient. They are looking for products with natural active ingredients and ingredients that respect their health and the planet. While our classic ranges obviously meet the specifications of European cosmetic regulations and the French ANSM, the D’ame Nature range aims to go further and meet these new needs. We started with face treatments such as milky cleansing oil and moisturizers, and on the strength of our success and our know-how, we continued with body, foot and nail treatments. Today, for example, we offer nail polish formulated from vegetable solvents, bio-sourced materials and ingredients of natural origin.

2 / Can you tell us about the history of Coup d’Éclat? How did this concept come about?

In 1975, Paul Lacroix and Henri Mas, the founders of the Asepta laboratories in Monaco, wanted to create their first facial treatment. They then imagine an instant elixir capable of restoring radiance to the skin just before a party, an SOS treatment presented in single-dose format, a very innovative approach at the time. They then baptized these ampoules “Coup d’éclat” and registered this name which would become a few decades later the common expression to define this immediate lifting effect and this incredible glow that every woman seeks!

3 / How have Coup d’Eclat bulbs evolved and what is their novelty today?

The ampoule formula has constantly evolved over the past 45 years to take advantage of research into new, more effective and better tolerated active ingredients. The Lift & Light bulb launched last July benefits from new plant-tensing active ingredients for a reinforced lifting effect that is suitable for all skin types, even sensitive. Its formula has also been enriched with mineral pearls to boost the healthy glow effect and with a complex of hydrating plants and hyaluronic acid salt which gives it a new anti-wrinkle and firming action for a global action on the skin.
