NAOS has made bio-ecology a philosophy that is common to all its brands. This approach has led to the development of 80 active patents. It considers the skin as an ecosystem interacting with the environment and defends that teaching the skin to live in that environment is better than just healing it. This positive approach leverages biology to protect and restore sustainably the health and the beauty of the skin. It also considers ecology as a duty to truly respect the interactions between the skin, human beings and our planet. NAOS has been founded in France by Jean-Noël Thorel who is a pharmacist-biologist by training. The company is present in more than 100 countries worldwide and has experienced a 20% growth per year over the past 5 years. Its products are developed and manufactured in Aix-en-Provence, France, at NAOS Les Laboratoires where is located the factory and a leading-edge research center. NAOS, Inspired by life, Driven by the heart.
