Darphin

It was in 1958 that Parisian kinesiotherapist Pierre Darphin created the luxe line of pampering products titled Darphin, alongside the Darphin Institute.

Pierre Darphin intelligently bought together cosmetologists, massage therapists, manicure experts and other professionals to help define and create ingenious treatments. Today, Darphin products are a huge success amongst skin care fanatics.

The use of aromatic-plant formulas adds an original and unique twist to the product line. Each and every formula features specific plant extracts and essences to combat common skin troubles. Enhancing the skin's natural beauty, Darphin stimulates the body's senses to awaken a feeling of wellbeing and vitality. They believe that enhancing pleasure contributes to awakening personal beauty, which is why their formulas appeal to all the senses, giving off a spa-like sensation.
