The power of plants

Centella asiatica grows in the tropical, swampy regions of Southeast Asia, Australia and Africa where its slender, creeping stems produce small rounded bunches of flowers. Commonly known as "tiger grass” because large cats like to roll in its leaves to soothe their wounds, centella asiatica leaf is also used to comfort and revitalize the skin. The extract from its leaves and flowers are valued in skincare for their high content of unsaponifiables, believed to have anti-aging properties.

Responsible sourcing

Because our commitment to responsible agriculture concerns both plants and the people who grow them, Clarins collaborates with a centella asiatica supply chain In Madagascar. This plant, which is the source of the asiatocoside we use, is picked according to Clarins' good practice guide for the harvesting of wild plants. The programme takes concrete action through several initiatives in support of responsible development. Our supplier works hand-in-hand with a Madagascan partner to help local communities. Through Its intermediary, Clarins has contributed to the building of nearly 20 classrooms. There are also teacher training programmes and social subsidiaries in place, together with book and food aid programmes in schools and a project that facilitated the renovation and equipment of a health centre.
