For 30 years, L'OCCITANE has been creating the highest quality body care, skincare and fragrance products using natural ingredients. In an effort to respect the environment, L'OCCITANE rigorously selects its ingredients from local, well-respected growers. The use of natural, traceable ingredients is at the core of L'OCCITANE product development.

L'OCCITANE products are never tested on animals.


Use no animal products (except for beehive products: honey, royal jelly and propolis) and test our products under medical supervision.


Most L'OCCITANE packaging includes Braille labeling.


In accordance with its ongoing commitment to human rights, L'OCCITANE guarantees that none of its products are manufactured using child labor.


L'OCCITANE supports traditional production methods. By giving priority to local suppliers, L'OCCITANE supports local employment and certifies quality standards. L'OCCITANE also maintains fair trade links with Burkina Faso, where Shea Butter is purchased directly from the local women's cooperative.


L'OCCITANE bag is manufactured with water-based inks and glue, as required by European regulation. The kraft paper is made from scraps of wood collected from the cleaning and maintenance of the Landaise Forest. This bag is biodegradable and recyclable.


The use of A.O.C. (Appellation of Controlled Origin) ingredients guarantees that L'OCCITANE products are made of the highest quality ingredients from Haute Provence. Currently, A.O.C. Lavender and A.O.C. Olive Oil are used in L'OCCITANE Harvest products.
