Our History
It all began on a small island in the West of France: the Island of Ré, when Virginie and Olivier Matharan met a salt worker.
He had created skincare products made out of fresh sea salt.
Virginie, Doctor of Pharmacy, decided to rework the formulas and enriched them with Marine Actives and Algae, knowing that these contain up to 100 times more minerals and trace elements than land plants.
In her quest for natural and healthy skincare, after 2 years of Research and Development, she launched a range of ocean-based products using ultra-powerful marine ingredients, such as Glasswort, Immortelle, and Algae.
Biosalines was born.
Our Mission
“We can no longer apply so many toxic substances to our skin, when nature is full of treasures to nourish and protect it!"
declares Olivier Matharan, co-founder of Biosalines.
The idea of offering the skin a natural and healthy cosmetic is obvious.
Creating a brand that respects both people and nature becomes a mission!
Our range of natural skincare includes active ingredients like Dune Immortelle, Glasswort, and Wakame Algae, which brighten the complexion and provide powerful anti-aging effects. Sweet almond oil, apricot oil, and aloe vera complete our formulas, delivering nourishing and soothing benefits—for all skin types, even the most sensitive ones.
SCIENTIFIC EXCELLENCE
They worked closely with a multidisciplinary scientific team, including microbiologists and dermatologists, to develop effective formulas inspired by the most authentic aspects of nature.
At Biosalines, we use marine and plant-based actives to create high-quality natural skincare. Each ingredient is carefully selected for its exceptional properties, all tested by independant laboratories and Dermatologists, offering your skin the very best in natural care.
Natural routines for healthy skin
Olivier and Virginie, parents of two surfing-enthusiast children, are deeply committed to both personal well-being and environmental respect. Passionate about their island and aware of ecological challenges, they prioritize eco-responsibility in every aspect, from sourcing materials to packaging.
Biosalines, based in Saint-Martin-de-Ré, Charente-Maritime, offers a range of effective, eco-friendly skincare products, reflecting the values of healthy beauty they are eager to share.
