ABOUT
Artisanal Organic Cosmetics from Provence — Le Secret Naturel Expertise since 2002
In 2002, in a workshop in Provence, Le Secret Naturel began formulating its first organic cosmetics. More than twenty years later, the same values — authenticity, certification, efficacy — guide every new formula. Here is our story.
Discover Our HistoryProvence, the cradle of natural cosmetics
Provence is the French region richest in aromatic and medicinal plants: lavender, rosemary, thyme, sage, immortelle, May rose... These plants are the active ingredients in the most effective natural cosmetics. This is why Le Secret Naturel chose Provence as the heart of its production since its foundation.
🌿 Local Actives
High-Provence fine lavender essential oil, rose floral water, AOC olive oil from Baux-de-Provence, Provencal green clay: the richness of the terroir in every formula.
🏭 Artisanal Craftsmanship
Every batch is hand-prepared in our workshop. Quality control at every stage, full traceability of raw materials, stable and effective formulas.

Le Secret Naturel prioritizes local suppliers and short supply chains for its Provencal raw materials, reducing the carbon footprint of production.

FAQ — Organic Cosmetics from Provence
Why choose organic cosmetics made in France?
Choosing organic cosmetics made in France ensures some of the strictest production standards in the world (EU regulations), supports the local economy, reduces the transport carbon footprint, and offers full traceability of raw materials.
What is the difference between "natural" and "certified organic"?
The term "natural" has no legal definition in cosmetics: any brand can use it. "Certified organic" (ECOCERT, COSMEBIO) implies a regular audit by an independent body that verifies the composition and manufacturing conditions. It is the only verifiable guarantee for the consumer.
Are Le Secret Naturel products suitable for children?
Yes. The Oléanat range is formulated for the whole family, including children. Our formulas are dermatologically tested and ECOCERT certified. For very young children (under 3 years old), always consult a pediatrician before introducing new skincare products.
