Discover or rediscover without further delay our best-sellers of the year 2021.

Best-seller among soaps: the nettle purifying wash care.

Manufactured in France, the purifying solid soap for face and body is enriched with essential oils of eucalyptus globulus for its purifying virtues and green mint with regenerative properties. Indeed, the essential oil of green mint is rich in carvone, a monoterpenic ketone that promotes the reconstruction of skin tissues. It also contains stinging nettle powder rich in mineral salts and trace elements that rebalance oily skin by regulating sebum production, just like the essential oil of eucalyptus globulus. Resulting from cold saponification, this cleansing care contains 8% superfat. As a reminder, superfat refers to the amount of vegetable oil that remains after the saponification reaction, the higher the percentage, the more gentle and nourishing the soap is.

Anaïs M. (26/09/2021) : "The pleasant scent and effectiveness are indeed present. I use it daily and the results are clearly noticeable and visible (fewer imperfections, clean and even skin). As a bonus: I tolerate it even though my skin is very sensitive and reactive. I recommend it for oily and acne-prone skin."

The peppermint hydrosol is a best-seller.

Our peppermint hydrosol has been distilled from peppermint leaves sourced from organic farming, grown and harvested in France. When applied to the skin, it has apurifying and astringent effect. Due to its slightly acidic pH, it visibly tightens the pores. It also stimulates blood circulation, making it effective against diffuse redness or to soothe razor and waxing burns. Furthermore, its immediate cooling action relieves sunburn and reduces feelings of discomfort.

Justine L. (17/07/2019): "I use peppermint hydrosol as a toner in the morning when I wake up and in the evening after showering. After a few weeks of use, I find that my pores are tighter and less visible. The added bonus: the fresh scent that wakes you up in the morning!"

Best-seller among toners: the glycolic acid exfoliating toner.

Enriched with active ingredients to exfoliate the skin, tighten pores and reduce the presence of blackheads, this exfoliating toner is applied to clean, dry skin only in the evening. Its acidic pH rebalances the skin's pH after each cleansing. It also helps to remove the lime residues present in the water during rinsing, thus avoiding any drying effect. Glycolic acid is a chemical compound with keratolytic action on the upper layers of the skin, which stimulates cell renewal. It is also renowned for its astringent and deep-cleansing virtues, thus limiting the appearance of blackheads. Potentially drying, it is here combined with vegetable glycerin with moisturising properties. Indeed, this compound captures the moisture in the air to ensure superficial hydration of the epidermis.

Félicia T. (08/11/2021) : "I have finally found the perfect product for my skin. Unfortunately, due to several factors such as wearing a mask and stress, I have been experiencing breakouts, particularly around the mouth, for the past 2 years. This product has enabled me to eliminate them all."

The best-selling facial serums.

Applied to the face and neck, before the moisturising cream on clean and dry skin, the serum is a beauty treatment that stands out for its formulation rich in active ingredients, and its light, fluid and penetrating texture. It provides a targeted action for specific skin issues such as brown spots, dull complexion, lack of firmness, wrinkles, dehydration, blemishes, etc...

  • The Radiance Serum with 11% Vitamin C:

    This is a treatment that boosts radiance helping you combat dull complexion. Vitamin C is an excellent antioxidant capable of neutralising free radicals responsible for photo-ageing of the skin. This serum is applied preferably in the morning to protect your skin throughout the day from free radicals generated by various factors (sun, pollution, smoking, etc...).

    Please note :This vitamin C serum naturally turns yellow over time, but this effect does not diminish the product's effectiveness.

    Laura (13/03/2019): "I am very satisfied with this serum which brings radiance very quickly from the first uses. Its light and non-greasy texture penetrates quickly, which facilitates the application of my moisturising care. My skin, which is rather reactive, tolerates it very well. I recommend it to all those who want a more luminous complexion!"

  • The exfoliating serum :

    This product is formulated with a 10% glycolic acid concentration and does not require a rinsing step. Glycolic acid has a molecular weight of 76.05 g/mol. It is the smallest A.H.A. (alpha-hydroxy acid). It enhances the quality and texture of the epidermis through its keratolytic, astringent and deep-cleansing virtues. Glycolic acid also possesses a hydrating power due to its stimulating effect on cellular renewal and the synthesis of hyaluronic acid.

    Clémence (27/09/2019): "As a brunette with fair, sensitive and dry skin, I had quite a few blackheads on my nose, tiny pimples on my forehead, and quite visible pores on my cheeks. From the second use, I could see the positive effects. The pores on my face have noticeably tightened, giving a natural glow effect that people ask me the secret of. Furthermore, the small pimples on my forehead are disappearing. My skin appears much smoother. The same effect is seen on my nose where the blackheads are gradually disappearing. My sensitive skin tolerates the product well, there are no issues as long as I'm careful to apply it in the evening and avoid direct sunlight in the following days."

  • The local imperfections serum :

    Concentrated at 2% in salicylic acid (B.H.A.), this serum targets skin imperfections (blackheads, pimples, etc...) in a localised manner. Indeed, this active ingredient is a powerful antibacterial known for limiting the growth of microorganisms, and also prevents pore blockage and the appearance of blackheads thanks to its exfoliating action.It also contains zinc (1%), a sebum-regulating and antimicrobial trace element. Thefirst results can be observed after three days.

    Maika B. (20/05/2019) : "A product that has made a real difference. My acne has completely disappeared! Delighted."

  • The plumping serum based on hyaluronic acid and vitamin B5:

    Hyaluronic acid is a hydrophilic sugar naturally present in the body. Its function is to maintain thehydration of the skin. At the dermis level, it helps to form its connective tissue and serves as asupport for collagen and elastin fibres. Thus, it plays a fundamental role in thedensity andtonicity of the skin. This serum delivers this molecule in two different forms: thehigh molecular weight hyaluronic acid which remains on the surface of the epidermis and creates a protective film preventing the water present in the skin from evaporating, and thelow molecular weight hyaluronic acid which penetrates deeper into the epidermis to strengthen and stimulate the production of hyaluronic acid naturally produced by the body. The action of these two molecules will help to keep the skin hydrated and prevent the appearance of fine lines. It is recommended to use it for at least 4 weeks to see its effects.

    Romain (27/04/2019): "This serum leaves the skin perfectly hydrated and plump. I feel like I have repaired skin. And all this with visible effects in just a few days! Thank you Typology!"

  • Theunifying serum :

    By promoting micro-blood circulation, the niacinamide in high concentration (12%) in this serum reduces redness caused by blemishes to provide a more even complexion. This molecule also helps to prevent the appearance of new blemishes and improve the overall appearance of the epidermis by refining the skin texture.

    Margot T. (12/11/2019): "I have very sensitive skin and suffer from rosacea. Since I started using this serum (4/5 months ago), my skin has undergone a transformation! It's much less red, with far fewer visible marks! I'm very happy."

  • Theeye serum :

    This serum, highly concentrated in caffeine and niacinamide regulates the micro-blood circulation and diminishes the appearance of bluish/purplish and brown dark circles. However, it will have no effect on the hollow dark circles caused by a decrease in fat around the eye due to skin ageing. It also helps to reduce the swollen appearance of watery bags, a result of water retention under the eyes.

    Sandrine R. (06/05/2019): "I have very dark, brown-purple under-eye circles (it's genetic in my family). This serum is fantastic. Since I've been using it for the past 15 days, my circles are much less dark. Approaching 40 years old, this is the only product with which I've seen a real improvement, despite having tried many treatments. In short, I'm delighted and at this price, coupled with the brand's sustainable and reasoned commitment... it's worth it!"

  • The tinted serum :

    A hybrid product between skincare and makeup, the tinted serum provides a light coverage. It is enriched with active ingredients such as vitamin C for skin radiance, aloe vera for deep skin hydration and squalane for nourishment. Each tinted serum can match a wide spectrum of skin tones. The six shades have been developed according to the FITZPATRICK phototype scale. Moreover, its silicone-free formula does not clog pores, thus preventing the formation of imperfections.

    Anne P. (13/10/2020) : "I really like the texture. It gives a natural finish that blends harmoniously with my skin. It's neither foundation nor BB cream. Much lighter! No signs of shine throughout the day. It doesn't seep into wrinkles and fine lines."

  • The purifying night serum with peony:

    Enriched with 7 botanical extracts, this oil-textured night serum purifies and aids in the regeneration of the skin during sleep. Composed of 100% natural origin ingredients, it notably contains native peony cells known to limit sebum overproduction and mattify the skin, jojoba vegetable oil for its nourishing and sebum-regulating properties, as well as tea tree essential oil which has anti-bacterial and purifying virtues. This serum is particularly recommended for oily skin types and those prone to blemishes. Moreover, it can be used as a replacement for night cream.

    Julie (8/06/2020): "Only good things to say about this product: - the texture (non-greasy feel after application) - the very pleasant and gentle scent - the effectiveness: after 2 weeks of application, I hardly have any spots left."

The best sellers among our facial creams.

  • The face moisturising cream with 9 ingredients :

    This minimalist formula hydrates and nourishes the epidermis. Its light and non-greasy texture is suitable for dry, normal and combination skin, even sensitive ones. It is enriched with hyaluronic acid derived from wheat fermentation. As a reminder, this molecule is known for its highly hydrating virtues; it can retain up to 1,000 times its weight in water.

    Aurélie V. (30/03/2019): "I have combination and quite sensitive skin that doesn't agree with industrial products. I wanted to try the Typology cream accompanied by its radiance serum and I am very satisfied! In less than two weeks, my skin has become truly radiant and vibrant."

  • The nourishing face cream :

    The action of hyaluronic acid is combined with that of shea butter in this cream to hydrate, restore suppleness to the skin and reduce feelings of tightness. Shea butter is derived from the pressing of nuts. It has soothing and nourishing properties due to its content of triglycerides and unsaponifiables.

    Catherine H. (17/08/2020): "This is the first truly effective face cream for me. I have really sensitive skin, and it doesn't sting, it's not too greasy and dries very quickly. It rapidly cleared up my dry patches, I'm delighted with it!"

  • The purifying face cream :

    This refers to the best-seller of the year 2021. Enriched with zinc PCA (4%) and bamboo extract, two purifying and sebum-regulating active ingredients, it purifies the skin and combats skin imperfections. Zinc limits the growth of microorganisms such as Propionobacterium acnes, a bacterium that is abnormally excessive in acne-prone skin. This cream is thus suitable for oily skin prone to imperfections.

    Lucie G. (3/08/2020): "Significantly improved skin, smoother, fewer redness and blemishes when combined with the nettle soap. Very satisfied with this product, the skin is less oily, it regulates sebum well."

  • The firming face cream :

    This product contains two firming active ingredients: 0.2% retinol and tsubaki oil. It is preferably applied in the evening, as retinol is a photosensitising substance. It combats the appearance of wrinkles and makes the skin more plump. Generally, one must wait between 8 and 12 weeks to start seeing the effects of retinol on the skin.

    Patricia B. (28/07/2020) : "I am very satisfied with the firming cream. My skin is more toned and my complexion is brighter."
