Natural active ingredients created by Les Jardins
Sothys™ (The Sothys Gardens).

Les Jardins Sothys™,
an exquisite Botanic Garden (covering four hectares in the middle of a
26-hectare forest park), opened in 2007. 
It was awarded the Jardin Remarquable label, and boosts a fine dining
restaurant and a Boutique. This exceptional place now attracts over 12,000
visitors every year! As a strong symbol that expresses the respect the brand
has for nature, Les Jardins Sothys™ in Auriac (Corrèze) are a source of
constant inspiration and bear witness to the brand’s involvement in sustainable
development.  Respect for nature, use of
the regional habitat, recovery of co-products from the environment... are all
values which guide our botanical research and help us to create active
ingredients inspired by our Gardens.

Research and
development are our key priorities. A team of 25 expert biochemists, pharmacists
and beauty therapists at the Soredec Laboratory, the Sothys Group
advanced research centre, are responsible for the roll-out of Sothys
products. Each Sothys formula combines inspiration from nature and
scientific rigour and is based on 4 founding principles: SENSORIALITY, SAFETY, EFFICIENCY, NATURALNESS.

Our brand ambassador… 
the beauty therapist.

The Beauty
therapist has been the foundation of the Brand for more than 70 years.
Innovative professional solutions provide the difference that sets us apart. We
design our Treatment Protocols and Massage Techniques in the heart of an expert
aesthetics unit, a fully-fledged beauty institute. The brand’s flagship method,
Digi-Esthétique® is an application technique specially developed by and for
beauty therapists, to optimize treatments and absorption of active ingredients.
Digi-Esthétique® combines acupressure and modelling techniques from Eastern and
Western cultures. By receiving ongoing training, our partner practitioners will
become Sothys ambassadors around the world. As true beauty creators,
they know how to listen to client’s needs, offer a correct skin diagnosis and
beauty prescription, and guide each client’s Fil de Vie™.

The art of professional treatments.

The art of
professional treatments. At Sothys, we promote a strong “Institute and
spa culture”, being the exclusive place for treatment rituals. The unique
rituals combine sensory indulgence, efficiency and a personalized approach to
treatment, in order to make every appointment a haven of well-being that
nurtures the body and mind… An art that sets Sothys apart. After
inventing the first Lifting Treatment in 1968, Sothys has always prided
itself on regularly changing its professional protocols in order to offer
innovative active ingredients and techniques and to provide specific solutions
to each client’s needs with its gold-standard Intensive facial treatments,
Cosmeceutical formulations and its Signature treatments. The efficiency of Sothys
treatments is based on the combination of highly sophisticated treatments
provided at a skin care institute together with products used regularly at home
to prolong the effects, following an accurate skin diagnosis for a customized
beauty prescription. At Sothys, we promote a strong “Institute and spa
