founders tips

Use it as a leave-on overnight treatment as the last step in your skincare routine a few times a week for incredible, luminous results. Try it as an exfoliating lip treatment for très smooth lips.

*If you use a retinoid or retinol, try using Élixir Exfoliant on alternating days. Research suggests that combining a retinoid/retinol and an AHA exfoliant can be an effective combination for hyperpigmentation. However, experts generally advise not using the two ingredients at the exact same time, since this can lead to dryness and irritation. Instead, you might try alternating them on different days to help your skin build tolerance.

Note: As with any product or cloth, it's important to be gentle, as over-scrubbing can irritate and disrupt the skin barrier layer. Wash the muslin cloth in between uses as dirty washcloths could spread bacteria back into your skin.

Brand Story

Struggling with infertility and an up-and-down relationship with my skin had me questioning everything I was putting in and on my body. This led to researching ingredients and eliminating things that didn’t serve me, including a complicated skincare routine. Informed by my background in cancer diagnostics and biotech, I partnered with a Harvard-trained chemist to develop science-backed formulas that prioritize skin health. 

Along my journey, a trip to Indonesia left a lasting impression, where front-line communities are grappling with the ocean plastic pollution crisis. Inspired by a deeper appreciation that skin health and the health of the world around us are profoundly interconnected, French Farmacie was born—combining results-driven ingredients with a genuine dedication to having a softer impact on the environment.

I’m so grateful you’re here. Tricia Marlowe, Founder
