Laboratory Roots, Iconic Formulas, French Pharmacy Heritage: The Pier Augé Story

A Vision Born in 1961

More than six decades ago, pharmacist Pierre-Jules Augé imagined a different path for skincare—one where cosmetics were not just about beauty, but about science.

Passionate about skin biology, he founded Pier Augé in 1961 with a groundbreaking idea: skincare should respect the skin as an organ in its own right.From the beginning, every formula was created with the precision of a pharmaceutical laboratory, inspired by the very structure of the skin itself.

The Legacy of a Visionary Pharmacist

Pierre-Jules Augé believed that the skin, fragile yet complex, deserved treatments designed to work in harmony with its natural balance.

His breakthrough, the Dergyl Method, was the first to replicate the skin’s own structure—helping to protect, repair, and regenerate it.

This pioneering concept remains at the heart of Pier Augé formulas today, proof of a timeless philosophy: creating skincare that goes far beyond surface beauty, to answer the skin’s deepest biological needs.

Science in Every Formula

At Pier Augé, each product is crafted like a precise formula, where every detail matters:

  • Active ingredients chosen to respect natural skin functions.

  • Perfectly measured concentrations for optimal effectiveness and tolerance.

  • Luxurious textures designed for sensorial pleasure.

This unique balance—science, performance, and pleasure—reflects the pharmaceutical rigor of our founder. No exaggerated claims, no empty promises: just results you can feel and see, day after day.
