THE DECLÉOR METHOD
WHY COMBINE ESSENTIAL AND VEGETABLE OILS
Balance at the heart of Decléor skincare performance
At Decléor, essential oils are never used alone.
They are systematically combined with vegetable oils, following a logic of balance, skin tolerance, and cosmetic effectiveness.
It is this controlled combination that underpins the performance and uniqueness of Decléor skincare.
Two families of oils, two complementary roles
Essential oils and vegetable oils do not have the same function or behavior in a cosmetic formula.
At Decléor, they are designed as two complementary families, inseparable from one another.
The role of essential oils in a Decléor treatment
Essential oils are powerful concentrates.
At Decléor, they provide a targeted action at the heart of the formula.
They are:
- used in just the right concentration,
- with a maximum of 3% in total in a formula,
- selected to meet a specific cosmetic goal.
Their integration requires rigorous formulatory mastery to ensure skin tolerance.
The role of vegetable oils in a Decléor treatment
Vegetable oils play an essential role in the formula.
They:
- serve as a lipid support for essential oils,
- enhance their affinity with the skin,
- contribute to skin comfort and the sensory experience of the care.
They allow for a pleasant application and good tolerance on a daily basis.
Why this association is essential for skin balance
The combination of essential oils and vegetable oils is based on a clear hierarchy of priorities:
- skin tolerance,
- cosmetic effectiveness,
- comfort and sensory experience.
Vegetable oils help to channel and support the action of essential oils, for a balanced cosmetic response.
👉 Without this suitable support, there is neither consistent use nor lasting comfort.
A controlled cosmetic approach, not a crude use of oils.
At Decléor, the combination of essential oils + vegetable oils is part of a controlled formulation framework.
It is:
- designed for daily cosmetic use,
- integrated into complete formulas,
- suited for different types of formulations.
👉 This is not a raw or isolated use of oils, but an expert cosmetic formulation.
Aromessence and Night Balm: two expressions of this association
The Aromessences
Essential oils + vegetable oils
The Aromessences combine essential oils with skin-compatible vegetable oils.
This combination allows for:
- a targeted action,
- a precise application,
- a seamless integration into the routine, before the cream.
The Night Balms
Essential oils + plant waxes
The Night Balms combine essential oils with plant waxes.
This structure:
- envelops the skin,
- complements the action of the night cream,
- integrates into the evening ritual, after the cream.
👉 Two different formulations, one same logic of balance.
What this association is not
The combination of essential oils + vegetable oils at Decléor:
- is not claimed as aromatherapy,
- is not a therapeutic use,
- is not a pursuit of maximum potency.
👉 It is an expert cosmetic approach, guided by mastery and tolerance.
