Discover the new Ligne St Barth range at Thermes Marins de Monte-Carlo, an invitation to well-being and escape with exceptional treatments from the Caribbean.
Saint-Barthélemy, the smallest island in the French West Indies - and the most exclusive – is the stuff of dreams. A little corner of paradise much sought-after by the jet-set, where lush vegetation mingles with white sandy beaches. It was here in 1983 that Hervé Brin founded Ligne St Barth, a cosmetics brand inspired by the very essence of this bewitching island. His
initial idea was to reveal the virtues of local plants through unique formulas. This knowledge was inherited from his grandmother and passed down by his Breton and Indian ancestors. For over 40 years, Hervé Brin has been inviting us on a sensory journey to the heart of the Caribbean's bountiful nature. And from 19 October to 20 January 2025, you can take your ticket to this exotic elsewhere at the Thermes Marins Monte-Carlo
A detoxifying facial with green clay and pineapple, an anti-ageing treatment with passion fruit, a relaxing body massage with coconut and avocado oil, a body massage with warm shells or a body scrub with coconut powder... 30 to 90 minutes of pure pleasure, depending on the ritual. After being exposed to UV rays, salt, chlorine... our skin needs to be pampered. We rely on the expertise of Ligne St Barth, which cultivates a top-of-the-range spa spirit, combining traditions, the West Indian art of living and new technologies. Starting with aloe vera gel, avocado oil, coconut oil and roucou oil, the brand's true emblem, it now has over 40 products based on natural, local ingredients, like crushed seeds of the roucouyer tree, rich in natural sun filters and provitamin A, which the Caribbean Indians used to coat their bodies with to protect themselves from the sun
In 1994, Hervé Brin took the brand in a technological direction with biomimicry. This pioneering approach, applied to cosmetologyfocuses on formulating products that mimic the biological processes of the skin, for maximum affinity with it.
The result is better absorption, as well as optimal efficacy, tolerance and protection. What's more, with a very high pressure manufacturing process, the company has the in-house expertise to do without certain raw materials oradditives. Highly nourishing and protective, Ligne St Barth facial creams act like a second skin and are suitable for all skin types, even the driest and most sensitive. Perfect for boosting the skin's radiance, restoring firmness and elasticity, while indulging in an exquisite, timeless moment of relaxation.
