active ingredient concept

We know exactly where our active ingredients come from and how they are processed. We aim for all of our products to contain at least 95% raw materials of natural origin, i.e. to achieve a NOI value of over 0.95. This value is a kind of seal of quality for nature-based ingredients in cosmetic products. To prepare our active ingredients, we use fermentation and upcycling processes. This enables us to increase the number of nutrients and antioxidants in our products while remaining very well tolerated by the skin. We consciously avoid irritating preservatives, drying alcohols, microplastics, silicones and parabens.

The selection and combination of our ingredients is based on scientific findings and benefits. That is why we use scientifically tested ingredients in all our NICOLETTE products as well as innovative formulations. The various hyaluronic acids used in our products are from the latest development and have product-specific effects. Depending on the product and the needs of your skin, the hyaluronic acid modification used can achieve moisturizing, smoothing, firming or many other effects.

Our products are formulated to be mild and tested for compatibility with different skin types. We only use high-quality, exclusive and natural ingredients and combine them carefully to provide the best possible care for your skin.

We are aware of our responsibility for the environment and therefore focus on producing our products in an environmentally friendly and resource-saving manner. We use the "Circular Beauty" approach, which stipulates a closed cycle for the extraction of our raw materials. Our aim was to reduce resource consumption by extracting ingredients from waste and by-products from the food industry. Or we even create completely new active ingredients through their fermentation - an absolutely fascinating process!

From the active ingredients to the packaging, our products are made from Swiss raw materials whenever possible. We pay particular attention to using regional resources when it comes to our ingredients. For example, we obtain the extract of our main active ingredient, butterfly bush, from the Swiss Alps. Our exclusive butterfly bush extract has been awarded as a certified organic extract by renowned organizations such as Ecocert, Cosmos and NaTure. It comes from a Fairtrade-certified farm in the beautiful Valais. Where the air is pure and the water is crystal clear, this special extract grows under the best conditions.

Our products are not only a treat for your skin, they also pamper you with a unique fragrance that we developed together with the renowned Swiss perfumer Andreas Wilhelm. The creative fragrance creation has been tested for skin compatibility and is non-irritating. It gives NICOLETTE an unmistakable brand scent that you will certainly remember.
