Our take
Why We Trust This Brand
The formulas are built on ECOCERT-certified organic ingredients — a third-party audited standard, harder to fake than a self-declared "clean" claim — from a studio whose brand story identifies Valérie Giraud as founder. The cited sources do not establish the current cap table or funding history.
