What makes Eclo an innovative and regenerative brand for the planet?
We have developed biodegradable formulas incorporating soil-regenerating active ingredients.
The cultivation of ingredients such as rye from the Haute-Loire region helps to restructure the soil thanks to their long, soil-consolidating roots. Hemp depollutes soils by absorbing toxins and heavy metals, while brown seaweed helps combat global warming thanks to its high carbon absorption capacity.
From formula to packaging, Eclo products are biodegradable and compostable. No petrochemical ingredients are used in our formulas, and we don't use plastic. Our products are zero-waste, leaving no harmful residues on your skin or in the environment.
Eclo also works closely with the "Pour une Agriculture du Vivant" association, the leading organization in France promoting regenerative agriculture, methods and processes that "give back more to nature than is taken from it".
What are Eclo's certifications?
The Eclo brand is certified ORGANIC Cosmos Organic by ECOCERT Greenlife, the most demanding label on the market.
This means that more than 20% of the composition of products comes from organic agriculture. The brand also guarantees completely vegan, cruelty-free, made in France and zero-waste products.
How can Eclo products be preserved? Is there an expiration date?
The products are formulated with ingredients of natural origin that have preservative properties. They can therefore be stored naturally.
Legislation requires us to communicate a shelf-life of 6 months after opening, but in practice, our formulas can be kept for years. It's just like an oil or balm you already have at home.
How are Eclo products good for the skin? Do they regenerate it?
The products contain several active ingredients, such as rye extract, which restores skin tone and elasticity for a healthy glow, hemp extract, which has soothing and moisturizing properties, and seaweed, which has nourishing and smoothing properties.
Other ingredients are also beneficial to the skin.
Coconut wax helps soften the skin, while shea butter moisturizes and protects. Cocoa butter moisturizes and protects skin from aging. Castor oil moisturizes, nourishes and softens the skin. Sunflower wax softens and smoothes the skin.
We use 100% natural ingredients that are non-toxic for your skin and our planet. We do not guarantee that our products will promote cell regeneration, but they do protect and nourish your skin.
Are Eclo products comedogenic?
Eclo products are not comedogenic. Dermatological tests have been carried out so that they are not likely to clog pores or develop comedones.
Do Eclo products contain nickel?
All our formulas contain between 2 and 3 oxides among the 4 that can contain nickel, namely: CI 77489 (Orange Iron Oxide), CI 77491 (Iron Trioxide - red colorant), CI 77492 (Iron Oxide - yellow colorant), CI 77499 (Iron Tetroxide - black colorant).
What pigments are present in Eclo formulas?
We use natural pigments of mineral origin certified Cosmos Organic by Ecocert Greenlife.
Our pigments are as follows: the black colorant CI 77499 Iron Tetroxide, the red colorant CI 77491 Iron Trioxide, the yellow colorant CI 77492 Iron Oxide, the blue colorant CI 77007 Lazurite and the white colorant CI 77891 Titanium Dioxide.
Parabens, preservatives... are they present in Eclo products?
Eclo products do not contain parabens or preservatives. Indeed, as the formulation contains little or no water, there is no microbial risk and bacterial proliferation.
Is the intensity of Eclo products modulable?
Yes, absolutely. For a natural finish, pick up a small amount of product on your fingers then apply.
For a more intense and colored finish, warm the product for several seconds then pick up more until you achieve the desired result.
It is also possible to combine and/or layer multiple shades such as a lipstick and a blush to expand your color palette.
What is the quantity of Eclo containers?
All our containers have a unique 10 g format, which is on average 3 to 4 times more than the quantity of traditional cosmetics products.
Is there a risk of using Eclo products with your finger or leaving a container open?
There is no risk, neither for your skin nor for the product.
Our plant wax-based formulas contain little or no water, so bacteria cannot develop. The product also cannot "dry out".
Furthermore, finger application provides better hygiene. They are often much cleaner than most brushes that lie around in a makeup bag.
Where are Eclo cosmetic products manufactured?
Eclo cosmetics are designed in France and largely manufactured in France, except for our eye pencil range, manufactured in Germany by the only partner in the world capable of supporting us on 100% natural and long-wear eye pencils.
Can I reuse my container once it is empty?
Yes, the containers are reusable. Earrings, rings, hair clips, your children's baby teeth... Our little pots can hold (almost) anything you want once cleaned. Give them a second life!
It will soon be possible to send them back to us so we can refill them, it is also a way to give them a second life.
How can the Eclo container and packaging biodegrade? What are the timeframes?
The formulas, containers and Eclo packaging are biodegradable and compostable. This means they do not leave any petrochemical or harmful residue on skin or in nature.
It is possible to compost the container and packaging once they are empty. For this, you can compost it industrially, according to your municipality's infrastructure, or compost it at home. For this, a hammer blow is enough to break it into pieces and thus facilitate decomposition.
Is there a risk that my 100% natural container will deteriorate?
If the container is closed, it is risk-free, your bathroom does not stay that humid all day.
Is it possible to apply Eclo products with a brush?
It is quite possible to use a brush but the result will be different.
Indeed, thanks to the friction of your fingers on the product, its melting texture allows for more intense application. However, you can use a brush to redefine the contours of your eyeshadow or lipstick, for a more worked and structured finish. A complete brush application will be less modulable.
Beauty tip: you can warm the product on your finger that you generously place on the back of your hand. Then, work the product with a brush then pick it up for a homogeneous and worked application.
Are Eclo products suitable for men?
Yes absolutely. Our containers are adapted for all and for everyone. Their standard format and simplicity of use allow each person to use Eclo products as they see fit.
Do Eclo makeup stains come off my clothing when washed?
Absolutely, Eclo make-up stains wash out perfectly. All Eclo formulas contain only 100% natural ingredients and no petrochemicals. We still recommend rinsing your garment to remove any excess before putting it in your washing machine.
I want to contact the Eclo team, how do I do it?
The Eclo team is reachable via social media or at the following email address: hello@eclobeauty.com. We will be happy to answer your questions.
How do you apply Eclo lipstick?
Eclo lipstick applies perfectly with your finger, for an unparalleled sensorial experience. Warm the plant wax that makes up the product on your finger using circular motions and apply to your lips. As pleasant to the touch as it is worn on the lips, the texture allows for easy product pickup and quick application. It can also be applied very well using a lip brush.
Where do the hemp, seaweed and rye in Eclo formulas come from?
These regenerative active ingredients are grown locally: in Brittany for hemp and seaweed present respectively in the lipstick and eyeshadow. Rye, found in the blush, is grown in Haute-Loire.
