Plants, flowers and natural active ingredients have been
the beating heart of Leonor Greyl formulas since its creation
in 1968.
A pioneering choice by Leonor and Jean-Marie Greyl
that is always at the center of the brand’s concerns:
innovating to combine hair care and naturality.
With its exceptional know-how of more than 50 years,
Leonor Greyl continues to evolve its formulas by
always incorporating more natural ingredients.
Plant proteins, flower extracts and botanical oils are
the secrets active ingredients of Leonor Greyl’s formulas.

WHY USE PLANT PROTEINS?

They imitate keratin, a protein that makes up 95% of hair and nails.
On dry or damaged hair, they fill broken sections to provide structure,
protection, and shine.
Leonor Greyl uses protein extracts from quinoa, almond and moringa.
They are gluten-free to avoid any allergy risks.

WHICH PLANT AND FLOWER EXTRACTS?

They are selected with the greatest care for their different properties: 

–  Wild pansy, chamomile and azulene, for their calming effects. 

– Linden blossom for its astringent properties, sage for its anti-perspiration and yeast
an anti-seborrheic. 

– Seaweed extracts: rich in minerals, they create a film around the hair which
provides support.

is excellent for scalp hygiene because of its antiseptic qualities.

WHY USING BOTANICAL OILS?

Their great affinity with hair fiber makes them exceptional allies for treating, softening,
and protecting hair.

Some oils are perfect for the face, others are for the body and/or hair, while some protect
from the sun.

  give shine to thin hair without heaviness.

  ethnic, and frizzy hair that quickly absorbs oil.
