Best of Brittany: Iroisie

Between Sein and Ouessant lays the Iroise sea, a small speck of the Atlantic Ocean, feared for its perilous navigation and famed for its beautiful and diverse ecosystem. It is in those UNESCO-protected marine areas that young bio-luxury brand Iroisie has found the active ingredients for its range of high quality creams.

By choosing the best of the sea and the best botanical extracts, Iroisie’s offering has a dozen products, all destined to help one’s skin fight off the first signs of premature aging. Along with Iroisie SPA, its professional-but-at-home range of body products, the range stays accessible, starting at €22 for a facial wash and going up to €45 for more advanced treatments. Packaging and conditionning are beautiful too.

Having had the opportunity to try some of the range during 1.618, I love their textures and scents, with products that absorb quickly and leave only a hint of themselves behind. Spa rituals have been developped for professionals, signifying that the opening of the first Iroisie spas aren’t too far off in the future. They are fully Eco Cert certified so this is good news in a bio-famished spa-scape.

Speaking of which, lucky Tokyoites will be the first to try the Iroisie spa as it opens exclusively at Isetan in a few months. Yet another reason to make me want to visit the land of the rising sun!
