The visionary thinking of Pierre-Jules Augé
In the 1960s, in Monaco, a pharmacist formulated a revolutionary idea:
“What if skin were a formula? What if, by understanding it, we could reproduce it?”
This bold vision laid the foundation for Pier Augé, a skincare brand whose DNA is rooted in science.
A scientific approach to avant-garde cosmetics
At the time, skin care was often empirical. But Pierre-Jules Augé, as a pharmacist, firmly believed that the composition of the skin could be understood, analyzed, and reproduced.
He then created the Dergyl method, which is based on a simple principle: reconstituting the skin's natural formula in the laboratory, to treat it in a targeted and respectful manner.
Skin care as a scientific act... and a love affair
He didn't design his first skincare products for a specific market, but for his wife, whose skin was hypersensitive. This personal gesture would give birth to a brand with a strong emotional dimension and rare technical rigor.
This dual requirement – protection and performance – will become the signature of the Pier Augé approach: cosmetics inspired by the skin itself.
A legacy that still lives on
Even today, this unique vision remains at the heart of the formulas developed according to Pierre-Jules Augé's initial principles. Each treatment aims to rebuild the skin's essential elements using carefully selected active ingredients.
Modernity is not based on passing fads, but on fidelity to a sustainable and effective scientific approach.
