Our Commitments
SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTS FROM BIOTHERM
Water is deeply anchored in our DNA - to protect the seas and the entire environment, the topic of sustainability is therefore particularly important at Biotherm. For this reason, the "World Oceans Day" was launched, which is intended to raise awareness for the protection of our oceans. Too much plastic waste combined with irresponsible behavior not only has a negative impact on the oceans and the creatures that live in them, but on the entire environment. After all, the oceans are also referred to as "The blue lungs of our planet". They are fundamental to the oxygen we breathe and to the ecosystem responsible for the health of our planet. That is why Biotherm is committed to more sustainability and is increasingly focusing on environmentally friendly cosmetics. We would like to take an important step towards plastic-free oceans to conserve our natural resources and protect our planet as well as the animal and plant world. With just a few measures, every person and every company can make their contribution to making the earth a better and more livable place for us and future generations. Immerse yourself in the world of Biotherm and discover the variety of our products! In addition to powerful active ingredients from the sea, each one also contains at least 1% of our exclusive Life Plankton™. The unique probiotic microorganism is the heart of our brand - and a real all-rounder: The thermal plankton strengthens the skin barrier, improves the skin structure, and stimulates cell renewal. What also connects our products: They are based on the power of nature paired with advanced biosciences, are effective and highly compatible at the same time and are manufactured sustainably and resource-saving.
FACE CARE
The night was short, the day is getting hectic. Our facial care contains everything you need to keep your skin radiant around the clock. Starting at the base of any skincare routine: a moisturizing day cream combined with a gentle facial cleanser and UV-protective care that you can add as needed. Would you like a little more? Then give your skin an anti-aging boost with concentrated Face Serums and Face Masks and face creams for oily skin to bring back your skin into balance with a regulating and mattifying care for impure skin. And if you don't know exactly what your skin needs or what skin type you have, simply get advice online with the help of our skincare diagnosis tool - individual, understandable, and strictly confidential.
If you haven’t tried it yet, Lait Corporel collection is the iconic Biotherm Body care line. Did you know that, created in 1952, Biomains is the first product launched by us and still part of the catalogue! It is completed with our Eaux de toilette collection Les Eaux, a subtile line of refreshing fragrances for body.
If you are looking for a complete range of deodorants, the Deo Pure collection is for you! Our gentle anti perspirants will help you control sweat all day long
SUN CARE
Reliable Sun protection is also essential, especially in summer. It should not only protect your skin cells from UV damage and sunburn, but also feel pleasantly light and contain no harmful additives - just like with all our products, skin and environmental friendliness are the focus here. Has your skin turned red while sunbathing? Then the rehydrating aftersun products provide quick relief, support the regeneration of sun-stressed skin, and even prolong the tan. To give you a little help with your holiday complexion, our self-tanner gives you a natural, streak-free tan – as if kissed by the sun , but much gentler.
If you are searching for a high UV protection such as SPF 50 or SPF 30, check our Sun care for face or Sun care for body products. They will be nicely completed by our After sun exposure products or our Self tan solution.

At Biotherm, we also try to improve our site visitors' experience. We created pages to explain our ingredients, so that you can have a better understanding of the quality of our products. We also launched a quiz to help you discover if Blue Therapy Uplift cream or Blue Retinol Multi Correct cream is the best option for you. Check our Red vs. Blue page explaining it all! Finally, you can read more about tips and tools on our "In the Spotlight" pages such as Best Eye gel, What are fine lines or simply How to take care of your skin this summer.
