Our Heritage
CHAPTER 1
A MAN, AN INTUITION, PASSION, AUDACITY
Behind every great brand is a story.
It all starts with Pierre Fabre, a French pharmacist and botanist with a passion for cosmetic innovation.
A very discreet man of talent who, from his pharmacy, formulated wonders.
CHAPTER 2
HIS INTUITION
In the 1970s, French society was undergoing a metamorphosis, with women becoming increasingly independent and demanding. Pierre Fabre sensed the spirit of the times and had a simple and unprecedented intuition.
He guessed that French women were waiting for a brand that combined the rigor, seriousness and effectiveness of the pharmaceutical world with the refinement and sensoriality of the beauty world.
CHAPTER 3
THE EMANCIPATION OF WOMEN
The 70's were an important decade for women.
They spoke out, took a new look at their bodies and freed themselves from the male gaze.
These women are intelligent, beautiful, modern, elegant and they know it! They want to live freely, to blossom and to shine.
CHAPTER 4
THE BIRTH OF GALENIC IN PARIS
It was in 1978 in Paris, the capital of fashion and creation, that the first products signed Galénic Paris were created.
Driven by his creative passion, Mr. Pierre Fabre leaves nothing to chance.
He mobilizes his know-how as a pharmacist and his knowledge of the art of formulation in order to imagine and create high quality skin care products combining effectiveness and sensory refinement.
CHAPTER 5
HER INSPIRATION, MODERN WOMEN
Elegant, intelligent, daring, free, refined and charismatic, modern women have always been a source of inspiration for the Galénic brand.
Cosmetics help them to feel better, to feel beautiful.
They want choice, effectiveness and wish to treat themselves to true luxury.
CHAPTER 6
GALENIC SUMS UP OUR DNA
It is a wink for insiders, a way of reminding us that beauty according to "Galénic is not a territory of promises, but that of a real know-how".
That of "galenics": the science of assembling components in pharmacy.
CHAPTER 7
GALENIC SCIENCE
Claude Galien, a Greek physician of antiquity, gave his name to the science of galenics.
An age-old art with the dual purpose of making an active ingredient available to the body or the skin and preserving its effectiveness.
The name of our brand Galénic comes from this heritage.
CHAPTER 8
HIGH COSMETIC FORMULATION
"La haute" as a true emblem of French luxury.
High-quality cosmetic formulation as an art of living. Galénic becomes a great signature of cosmetics, combining French know-how and elegance.
CHAPTER 9
A TAILOR-MADE ART
Inherited from galenic know-how, each active ingredient must be offered a tailor-made formula that fully contributes to its effectiveness.
Thus, the product provides women with a unique sensory pleasure.
For Galénic, an exceptional formula is as much about emotions as it is about results.
CHAPTER 10
CREATOR OF EXCEPTIONAL FORMULAS
We are creators of exceptional formulas.
Research & Development is a key pole for Galénic in order to offer you formulas at the cutting edge of science and of the greatest effectiveness.
CHAPTER 11
FRENCH KNOW-HOW
Galénic is a French brand, this know-how is an important element for the brand.
Since its creation, it is in the South-West of France that Galénic has made its mark, from Research & Development to manufacturing.
CHAPTER 12
A UNIQUE KNOW-HOW
Each product benefits from a unique recipe, an intelligent and original architecture.
For Galénic, the discovery of the active ingredient is the first major step in the birth of a care product.
However, science does not stop there. This active ingredient must now express its full power.
