Back to the Future

In a world of quick fixes and quick disposal, the return to traditional origins and methods is gaining increasing momentum to guarantee the survival of the planet.

With this in mind, Cinq Huiles is committed to doing its part: using traditional cold process saponification methods and 100% natural ingredients. Our products are eco-friendly, contributing to the reduction of plastic waste. Furthermore, we strive to minimize our carbon footprint with small-scale, local production in Gland.

With a careful selection of ingredients and suppliers, our products are healthy: their composition contains a maximum of organic ingredients, and excludes palm oil, parabens, sulfates, silicones and EDTA.

With a diverse range for different skin types and audiences, our products are highly nourishing, as the oils used provide hydration, protection, regeneration and firming.

And that's how we adopt a circular economy:

  • Manufacturing

    Hand-produced according to our customers' needs. 100% organic vegetable oils.

  • Consumption

    Essential personal hygiene products. Durable products with extended shelf lives. Sales primarily through word-of-mouth, at markets, and in bulk stores.

  • Reduce-Recycle-Reuse

    We use kraft paper packaging (no bleaching required) which is recyclable. Some products can be refilled (for example, shaving soap), resulting in less waste and lower costs!
