Selection charter

At Happy Officine, we believe that beauty should never compromise health or the planet. That's why we created our own label: Label OFF . A rigorous selection of clean beauty products: free from controversial ingredients, free from animal testing, and as kind to your skin as it is to the environment. Here's how we choose the products that make it into our store... and your bathroom!

No. 1 Non-Toxic

Natural or synthetic, for us, an ingredient must above all be safe for your health and meet our clean beauty requirements.

Synthetic ingredients are sometimes more stable and better tolerated than natural extracts... but they're only accepted if they're 100% safe, non-petroleum-derived, and validated by our stellar panel (also known as "us, label freaks").

We've also drawn up a blacklist of ingredients that we refuse, even when they're permitted in certain organic specifications. Yes, that's how we are.

No. 2 Cruelty-free.

You won't find any products tested on animals at Happy Officine. This is a given for us, but it seems worth pointing out.

We favor brands committed to 100% cruelty-free cosmetics, often from small-scale production where ethics take precedence over volume. A small gesture for them, a big step for your conscience.

No. 3 Organic

We favor brands using organic or wild-harvested ingredients, without GMOs or pesticides.

But be careful, not all of our products carry an organic label. Why? Because:

Some labels are satisfied with a very small percentage of organic ingredients to certify a product (and that's very little for us).
Certifications are expensive, especially for the small, independent brands we love to support.
Nature does not produce its own certificate: wild harvesting often respects ecosystems better than certified intensive cultivation.

No. 4 Natural

We select products rich in concentrated natural active ingredients , without unnecessary ingredients. Less talk, more effectiveness.

A good natural product is also economical: better dosed, you need less for maximum results. Your skin thanks you, and so does your wallet.

No compromises for us: we seek the best effectiveness, without ever tolerating ingredients that pose a risk to your health or the planet.

No. 5 Eco-friendly

We carry out carbon offsetting operations for our international imports, because every gram of CO2 counts.

Our brands are mainly European and favor eco-responsible packaging : glass, bioplastics made from sugar cane, recycled or recyclable materials.

And when it's not yet perfect, we actively encourage our partners to move towards more sustainable solutions. Because we, too, want to leave something beautiful behind.

No. 6 Ethics

The brands we support are run by beauty artisans : women, men, couples or families, who are passionate and committed.

We select their creations for their quality, but also for their human values. Many of them support social or environmental causes, work in fair trade, or promote their local expertise.

Happy Officine is also about this: buying a treatment means supporting a beautiful story.

The Black List of Ingredients

Phenoxyethanol

Phenoxyethanol is often touted as the "least worst" of synthetic preservatives. But at Happy Officine, we're not fans of half measures.

Although authorized in organic cosmetics, it is controversial due to its potentially toxic effects on the liver and its allergy risks. It is even banned in products intended for babies under 3 years old.

We prefer gentler, natural preservatives, such as vitamin E (tocopherol), which protect your skin without harming your health.

Surfactants

Sulfates are those foaming agents found in conventional shower gels and shampoos. The problem? They can be irritating, drying, and stripping .

They attack the skin and hair, disrupt the natural skin barrier and can cause itching or excessive sebum production (hello oily roots!).

At Happy Officine, we offer gentle, plant-based surfactants that are kind to your skin and the planet.

Phthalates

Phthalates sneakily hide in perfumes under the name "fragrance." They serve to lock in odors... but also disrupt our hormones (nice, right?).

These substances are recognized for their role as endocrine disruptors and their impact on fertility, fetal development and the hormonal system.

At Happy Officine, we're phthalate-free. Our fragrances are 100% natural or made from pure essential oils.
