THE DICO OF INGREDIENTS

Demain® is an innovative brand with an in-house formulation laboratory. Each ingredient has been selected for its effectiveness and is used in our formulas at its objective percentage*.

At Demain®, we love transparency. We know it’s hard to decipher lists of cosmetic ingredients. Discover below the ingredients behind our formulas.

*Using an active ingredient at its "objective percentage" means that the concentration of that ingredient is optimized to provide the best results while minimizing possible side effects or irritations. For example, if a cosmetic product contains hyaluronic acid to hydrate the skin, it can be formulated with a precise concentration of that active ingredient to achieve the desired hydration results without causing any adverse effects.
