INTENTIONAL BEAUTY ETHOS

THE L’ABEILLE STORY
L’abeille is a story of our Founder’s heritage and home country. Coming from French and German decent, but being born and raised in South Africa, I decided to combine my love for both. In the L’abeille range I have combined exquisite African oils with some outstanding high performance actives, some being harvested off the breathtakingly beautiful coastline of Brittany, France. The floral extracts used in L’abeille would not be possible without our bee colonies, which are so important for the sustainable existence of all our beautiful flowers, hence the use of L’abeille as our brand name.
At L’ABEILLE, we are led by our passion for excellence and continual growth in educating our consumer in science-based beauty. We are on a constant quest to raise the standards in the cosmeceutical industry and select ingredients that are well researched, tested and safe. We only include ingredients that are proven to work at cellular level and have a direct impact on enhancing the beauty of your skin.
L’ABEILLE creates a South African experience in each product by combining exquisite African extracts and botanicals with meticulously procured high performance ingredients. Join us on your journey in discovering restored youth and increased radiance.
Healthy skin = Happy skin
FORMULAS WITH RESPECT FOR OUR ENVIRONMENT & SKIN
At L’ABEILLE the ingredients we use matter just as much as our choice to protect our earth, because effective beauty, with purposeful ingredients should be the standard. This is why our raw material choices are always thoroughly researched to ethically serve our customers. Our high performance bio-based ingredients are all scientifically proven in their claims, and our botanicals are of the purest and finest standards. We tirelessly strive to select sustainable ingredients that carry the least impact on our environment, without compromise on their efficacy.
We strive to make the best products for everyone, because being inclusive of all skin types and diversities is very important to us.
L’ABEILLE founder, Karen Potgieter, is driven by her passion for scientifically engineered and effective skincare that delivers on its promises.
