A long journey strewn with pitfalls, driven by an awareness of improving my ecological footprint that has brought me to who I am today. Graduated in ornamental horticulture, phytotherapy, aromatherapy, in addition to dozens of training courses in essential oil distillation, perfumery, body cream manufacturing, advanced soap making, candle making and so on, allowed me to acquire valuable knowledge and a taste of what the Ateliers Zest adventure would become. We are not born with a passion. It is passion that finds us.

 

Long before the Ateliers Zest adventure, my conscience pushed me to dissociate myself from the major commercial cosmetics, body and household brands. I really wanted to stop using them given their list of ingredients containing substances of concern for health and the environment. So I looked for an alternative, then through research, reading and training of all kinds, I acquired enough knowledge to be able to manufacture my own products.

 

One thing led to another, the pleasure of manufacturing transformed into a real passion, to the point of saying to myself: why couldn't I share this passion with those around me? Every day, I tested new colors, new fragrances, new recipes.

 

My love for travel, beauty and aromas led me to create collections of inspired and inspiring body and bath products. Whether it be honey, seaside, spa, coffee or tropical fragrances or colors, my dearest wish was to recreate the atmosphere and feeling of being in the most beautiful places in the world.

 

Obviously, I couldn't ignore my indigenous origins. This is why I designed a collection referring to a walk in the forest, with its fresh aromas of fir and spruce.

 

My main guidelines are at the level of the manufacturing process which must be carried out with the greatest care and attention. Then, the raw materials must be of the highest quality possible, without toxic substances and not tested on animals. And finally, it is essential that the products are luxurious, visually beautiful and provide incredible softness.

 

Experience and years have led me to leave nothing to chance, down to the smallest details, both in terms of the finished product and the packaging. Everything has been thought out, tested and approved.

 

Let yourself be transported into a world where taking care of yourself is a privilege, synonymous with luxury, relaxation and well-being.
