We are Committed
Our vision for My French Concession is to integrate environmental and social issues into our business operations. We are committed towards a more sustainable world, making efforts wherever we can to preserve it. We understand every small gesture counts, and we desire to be in tune with the times, to listen to the world around us and take small actions wherever we can to make a difference.
Quality & Craftsmanship
Our candles are individually hand poured by artisans using only the finest wax; infused with exquisite fragrances created by a master French perfumer. Each candle is handcrafted in Paris and production can only be done in small batches.
French Savoire Faire
In keeping with the origins of French perfumery, we work with a creative French perfumer in developing exclusive fragrances that awaken your olfactory in a sensory journey. We also rely on the expertise of French laboratories and experts to realise our formulations.
Traditional Method
Our liquid soaps are made the old-fashioned way in small batches by traditional soap makers in Southern France. The vegetal oils are mixed in a cauldron, with potash added progressively to start the saponification process. The soap is then cooked slowly for at least 6 hours. Once the reaction process is full, the paste is then transformed into a liquid soap by adding water. Light lather is formed thanks to natural vegetal oils for a deep cleansing without being harsh on your skin while respecting our environment. Less foam for more softness for your skin and for the environment.
Ethical Ingredients
Our candles are made of 100% vegetal wax which are non-toxic and free from artificial colorants. In our additional commitment to you, our line of bodycare products work with ingredient suppliers that are Ecocert certified. Ecocert ensures assurance on the use of natural or organic ingredients, eco-friendly production processes and prohibition of most petrochemical ingredients.
Respect for the Environment
We make an effort to adopt an eco-friendly approach for my French Concession wherever we can. Our collection of bodycare products are housed in refillable glass bottles, transforming them into reusable vessels or lasting decorative items. We also offer refillable pouches that allow your to refill of the original glass bottle twice, in our small efforts to reduce waste.
We also strive to remain eco-conscious wherever we can in our packaging. Our candle boxes and shopping bags are FSC certified. FSC stands for Forest Stewardship Council, and organisation that works to promote the practive of sustainable forestry worldwide. We remain committed to eventually transition as much of our packaging (if not all) to be eco-conscious and environmentally responsible.
Socially Responsible
Being socially responsible is dear to our hearts – we engage APSN (Association for Persons with Special Needs) for the bottling, labelling and packaging of the products you receive from us. This is our little ways of contributing back to the community where ever we can.
