EPILODERM®
The story of EPILODERM began in 1984. In that year, Sandrine the creator of EPILODERM along
with many beauticians was an apprentice. Throughout these formative years she wondered about
hair removal techniques and the products associated with them.
At that time, traditional waxing "recyclable", which was already a good twenty years, was widely
used in the institutes. This wax, even if it gave satisfactory results, was however very hot, brittle
and unhygienic. It was indeed surprising that not more questions were raised concerning the many
hairs from different sources which were mixed into the overflowing wax trays. In retrospect, this mix
is probably the cause of many allergies.
1986 her apprenticeship ended.The French beauty market decided to reinvent itself and to update its w
improve the hygiene problems of traditional wax. Manufacturers developed a new wax, and a new
approach. Hair removal "strips were invented". Wax became more hygienic, more efficient, more
functional, in one word "More"!
More hygienic? Wax was no longer recycled, but the same knife, or even roll-on was used on all
clients.
More efficient? We went from a waxing every four weeks with the traditional wax method, to two or
three weeks, at best, with "the strip" method. This method was so efficient, it was advisable to use
a different wax for underarms and bikini line. Not to mention the hair under the skin or broken hair.
More functional? That's right! So functional that clients no longer need beauticians to be waxed.
Just head for the first shopping mall on the horizon, and you will find the shelves full of waxes strips
including the user manual of the perfect beauty therapist.
After being an apprentice and an employee for over 10 years, Sandrine had used for many years
these methods, and had come to understand that hair removal was an essential care product for an
institute.
She settled in Paris in 1995 in the district of l'Etoile, determined to offer her clients an exceptional
hair removal treatment, a lot different from what she had experienced in the past. She created a
method of hair removal, and developed in collaboration with a French laboratory, a wax that fulfils
their expectations, and obviously, those of her clients.
2007, after numerous press articles and numerous requests for information from professionals,
EPILODERM ® brand was created.
