 
Thalgo Skin Care
Thalgo was established in 1968 and since then Thalgo Skin Care products have become a well-known brand of
cosmetics and has come to the forefront of Spa Therapy at an international level. The birth of Thalgo skin products
stemmed from its research of marine algae and plant bases, which gave effective breakthroughs for skin treatment
and substantiated the need for an independent skin care line of products.
Thalgo offers skin products based on marine care and with the vastness of the seas in the world, tapping this
immense resource has proved to be a goldmine for results driven formulae developed by the Thalgo team. Only a
fraction of the riches that lie beneath the surface of the oceans have been dicovered and even a lesser amount has
been exploited for the aesthetic essence and active potential. Algae, one of the most commonly found microorganisms
in the sea is known to have 1000 times the iodine content, 100 times calcium and 10 times the manganese content of
a plant found on the surface of the earth! Teams at Thalgo research and create powerful treatments from this and
other such raw and abundant sources in the sea.
The year 1999 saw new leadership in the form of Jean Claude Sirop who took over the leadership of Thalgo. While
the research for newer forms of algae continued for their properties of rebalancing, protecting and nourishing,
there was a breakthrough discovery and launch of the Serum d’Exception. This serum was lab tested and proven to
stop the deterioration of support fibers in the skin, thus enabling them to produce more collagen and elastin. The
serum was made by incorporating natural marine algae hormones. Another new algae was successfully used in launching
the Impeccable Purity line of products in 2002. This line used the Criste Marine algae and was instantly welcomed
by the market. Thalgo Skin Care also uses a unique manufacturing process which they have been careful to patent. It
involves exploding the algae for their nutrients and it is highly effective in maintaining and boosting the potency
of the proteins found inside. This procedure of extraction also results in obtaining the nutrients in the form of a
very fine powder, which is easily absorbed by the skin to give much quicker results as compared to other
products.
Thalgo Skin Care offers a wide variety of products for everyday use and there are about nine categories of
solutions related to aging. Other products aim at rejuvenating, repairing, detoxifying and firming of the skin, and
these are suited for oily, dry and combination skin types. Popular products include the Thalgo Energilift and
Thalgo Revitalising Eye Contour Cream which works wonders on reduces fine lines and wrinkles to give a younger,
brighter look, and Thalgo Absolute Hydration, the spectacular anti ageing facial product that smooths out skin and
enhances cell energy.
Thalgo believes in holistic body care and has an expert team of nutritionists who have created a spectrum of
products including teas coffees and nutritional supplements. Keeping pace with emerging new trends in fashion and
well being, effective and high performance men’s products also find a place in the hugely popular Thalgo skin care
