A passion for skincare excellenceGermaine de Capuccini was founded in 1964 by

Carmen Vidal. Carmen Vidal was a vocational

therapist who continues to be recognized as one of

the great and most successful female pioneers of the

professional skincare industry.

Today the company remains in the Vidal family

who are committed to research, development

and innovation, creating some of the world’s most

advanced formulations.

Available in over 85 countries worldwide, with over

20,000 spas and salons offering treatments and

products to their clients, Germaine de Capuccini

goes from strength to strength.

Based in Spain, our laboratories are one of the most advanced

in Europe, using the latest technologies and the best natural

ingredients. Working to pharmaceutical manufacturing

standards, all products and treatments are subject to rigorous

effectiveness tests using avant-garde measuring devices.

These devices precisely measure the effectiveness of the

skincare and medical aesthetic treatments, ensuring extremely

high end customer satisfaction.

In 2003 Germaine de Capuccini entered the spa market with

it’s Spa Marine range. As this market grew, new lines were

launched, which were steeped in unprecedented rituals based

on nurturing the mind, body and soul. Now, the Sperience

range from Germaine de Capuccini captures the very essence

of originality with over 70 spa rituals, all incorporating beautiful

textures and aromas from around the world. Offering your

clients a unique menu is an exciting and easy process.

Our environmental and social commitments

CO2 ZeroFrom the beginning, environmental care has been a deep-rooted

commitment in the business philosophy of Germaine de Capuccini.

Likewise, we have categorically rejected animal testing and the

use of animal bi-products. Our commitment to environmental care

has made it possible to obtain the CO2 Zero certificate. In fact,

Germaine de Capuccini was the first skincare manufacturing

house to gain this certification.

EcocertGermaine de Capuccini also has the Ecocert certification of

organic cosmetics thanks to the development of our organic range

Naturae, which has been created from products without silicones,

parabens or artificial colourings. There are also many other organic

ingredients used where possible throughout our product ranges.

ParabensAround 80% of the Germaine de Capuccini range is paraben free.

As older products are reformulated, parabens are automatically

removed from their formulations.

Social Commitment Germaine de Capuccini also cares for the well-being of

socially discriminated minorities. We use natural ingredients

in our formulas, whose sustainable cultivation is promoted by

programmes such as the BEE (Black Economic Empowerment)

of South Africa, which offers development opportunities for the

discriminated minorities in this country.

Included in our social commitment, we collaborate with the

Sandra Ibarra Foundation of Solidarity against Cancer, with a

treatment from our Perfect Forms range: Replenish and Lift Bust.

Germaine de Capuccini is one of the ten companies that make

up the STANPA Foundation. This project is promoted by STANPA

(National Association of Perfumery and Cosmetics) and aims

to implement the “Look Good, Feel Better” program in Europe;

supporting women with cancer.

In order to help include people with visual disability and thus help

their personal autonomy, Germaine de Capuccini uses Braille on

the packaging of its retail products.

All retail products have instructions for use printed in thirteen

languages which is especially important for hotel spas catering

for overseas guests.

4G1 Integrated Management SystemGermaine de Capuccini is the first Spanish

company within the professional skincare

field that has implemented the 4G1 Integrated

Management System. This integrates the

regulations of Quality Control, Environmental

Management, Workplace Safety and Family

Responsible Employer (EFR).

Family Responsible EmployerIn 2007 Germaine de Capuccini was certified

as a Family Responsible Employer for the

development of actions in favour of family and

work life conciliation of its human team.

CGMP Germaine de Capuccini is also certified

for the fulfilment of the Cosmetics Good

Manufacturing Practices.

Created specifically for the professional market,

every treatment commences with a short protocol

designed to ensure your client is relaxed and

receives much more than a regular treatment.

Our therapists are trained to make sure every

treatment is an unforgettable experience whether

it be a 25 minute express facial or a 2 hour spa

journey. We expect our clients to see visual results

and many say our treatments definitely have the

‘wow factor.’ Steeped in beautiful rituals, not only do

clients love to receive our treatments, therapists are

also excited to perform them.

Whilst our offering is extensive, we can help you

choose the right treatments to fit the needs of your

business. All opening orders are put together on a

prescriptive and flexible basis. Working with you,

we will ‘cherry pick’ the right treatments to suit your

business needs, clients and philosophy.

Taking your treatments one step furtherWith an exceptional range of exciting and unusual

GlycocureA 10 minute intensive glycolic facial peel and

royalty, this massage has extraordinary results.

Silk Scalp TherapyAn indulgent 25 minute Sybarite Silk Scalp

Massage with extracts of genuine silk to truly

nourish the hair and scalp.

Advanced anti-ageing

Timexpert Rides: specifically for lines and wrinklesWorking to fill wrinkles from within and inhibit the formation of new expression lines,

this range is based on two active ingredients developed by Germaine de Capuccini:

Pro-Collagestine Fill Technology: A concentrated extract from the ‘Brede Mafane’

flower stem which provides an anti-ageing action; improving the ‘skin architecture’ and

increasing the production of collagen and elastin.

Micro-Dermoxine Complex: Inspired by the micro-injections of botulin toxin and

collagen, it neutralises the effects of skin micro-tensions, whilst providing collagen

micro-fragments that fill in wrinkles.

Timexpert Lift: lifting and redefining the facial contoursKombucha, known as the fungus of long life, is the origin of this range’s main

ingredient. It has excellent lipo-filling properties enabling it to fill out areas lacking in

volume and losing tone. It also protects collagen fibres and stimulates their natural

production, strengthening the skin’s structure and increasing suppleness.

Sesame Extract, a natural ingredient, also provides deep hydration smoothing the

skin in a matter of minutes.

Timexpert White: for skin with hyperpigmentationEffectively reducing the appearance of dark spots and regulating the pigmentation

process, thanks to the innovative ingredient Melanolight Process Technology. Created

in the Germaine de Capuccini laboratories, this ingredient treats hyperpigmentation

by regulating the melanin synthesis process. Timexpert White works intensely before,

during and after the formation of dark spots to restore an even, radiant skin tone.

With a wide range of clients having regular treatments, it is simply not enough to have a ‘one size

fits all’ anti-ageing option on your menu. Clients are now more demanding of an approach that

deals specifically with personal ageing concerns. Our anti-ageing Timexpert ranges offer a choice

in treating the various effects of ageing, with four very specific therapies available:

87

Timexpert C+: for dull, tired and stressed skinThis range uses the rejuvenating power of pure Vitamin C, combined with innovative

technology to ensure the greatest level of Vitamin C is absorbed into the skin.

Germaine de Capuccini was the first skincare brand to stabilise the use of Vitamin C

within skincare products with the following benefits: anti-oxidisation, regeneration,

hydration, illumination and revitalisation. Highly recommended for skin which is dull

and lacks life, dehydrated by sun excess, or affected by stress.

Medical aestheticsThe Germaine de Capuccini Synergyage Project

combines cosmeceutical products with the most advanced

technology, providing innovative solutions to the main

aesthetic problems: acne, darkspots, wrinkles, redness,

flaccidity, cellulite and stretch marks.

This is a relatively new market segment providing the

potential to expand all good beauty clinics and spas with

a Medi-Spa approach.

The Synergyage Cosmeceuticals range is defined by:

•Powerful ingredients in maximum concentrations.

• Treatments that are prescribed and performed by trained

and highly qualified staff.

• Innovative solutions to dermatological problems.

The Efficy MachineCutting edge medical-aesthetic equipment ensuring

exceptional, safe and lasting results, working together

with products from our Synergyage Cosmeceuticals

range. The machine offers three different programs that

can be used independently or in conjunction with each

other to provide the most advanced therapies:

Digital Mono Polar Radio FrequencyUsing advanced technology and a unique digital

monopolar capacitive Radio-Frequency that

incorporates an innovative concept of deposited energy.

Vacuum Push-Pull TherapyInnovative and exclusive digital technology with a

“push-pull effect”. It’s innovation lies in the combination

of a single head with a simultaneous vacuum and

pressing on the tissue.

Digital Transdermal InductionAdvanced digital transdermal technology that

guarantees the non-invasive penetration of ingredients in

the desired depth plane: epidermis, dermis, subdermis,

using piezo-electric and resonating effect.
