Even during Lara’s pregnancy, the question kept coming up whether the barely legible ingredients in pregnancy and baby care products were “healthy” for mom & baby. The studies did not yet confirm the contrary, but the so-called “natural cosmetics” wave emerged.

After moving to the Bregenzerwald & the birth of two more daughters, the desire for products that combine naturalness, sustainability and social fairness increased.

Lara deepened her knowledge with her biomedical understanding and clinical trial experience into the research of natural compounds.

At the same time, a long-time friend gave the couple a homemade toothpaste that had it all: a 100% natural toothpaste that left teeth wonderfully smooth & breath fresh even in the morning, something Lara & Clemens had never come close to experiencing with any toothpaste.

This WOW experience & Lara’s developer spirit motivated the nature lovers to combine all their energy & together found PHYSTINE – with the belief that natural cosmetics are more than just the inferior version of conventional cosmetics without synthetic ingredients – but can achieve unique results.

The goal with PHYSTINE is to develop care products for skin health that meet the maximum demands for sustainability all around:
Good for people & the environment!
From raw material extraction to manufacturing & packaging to the product, its use & disposal consistently natural, ethical & ecological.

PHYSTINE is the symbiosis of the Greek word “phýsis” and the English “pristine” and stands for pure body through untouched nature.
