1908

Birth of a line of pharmacists, a love of plants as a legacy

In 1908, pharmacist Pierre Girault, Savéria Coste's great-grandfather, created his pharmacy in Marseille. A great specialist in botany, his cosmetic preparations with plants ensured his reputation. Then followed Fernand Stanislas Girault, Savéria Coste's grandfather, and his wife, both pharmacists, as well as their son and his wife, also pharmacists. The latter took over the pharmacy and developed it to create a self-service space dedicated to "holistic beauty". Customers thus discovered a totally innovative pharmacy, dedicated to dermo-cosmetics, herbal teas, and other well-being products. When she came into the world, Savéria Girault, who would become Savéria Coste, already carried in her veins the love of plants and cosmetic preparations. She is the fourth generation of Pharmacists.

Creation of the Garancia Laboratory: the botanical alchemy of the future

It was while working on a revolutionary active ingredient that Savéria came up with its very first formula: "A foam that will act in 30 seconds to transform the quality of the skin's texture... a cult product has just been born: Pschitt Magique ". The product keeps its promises and the alchemy of the Garancia brand works... The successful marriage of high technology and naturalness propels Pschitt Magique among the essentials of the beauty ritual. It seduces many stars and wins the 3rd prize of the Beauty Challengers Awards out of 70 international brands at the Cosmeeting trade show.

A mysterious year

When she heard about the studies of a Swiss research laboratory proving, through excellent results, the effectiveness of snake venom on skin tone, the "scientist" faced the evidence and prevailed over the "phobic" of snakes...

Scientific research without borders

After many collaborations with European researchers, Savéria turned her scientific gaze towards the United States. It was there that she met her " plant hunter ". The researcher-explorer unearthed " Dragon's Blood " in the heart of the Amazonian forest. A red resin used as a real botanical bandage by Indian tribes. Savéria would use it in the composition of the cult skincare products [Diabolique Tomate], [Le Chardon et le Marabout] and [Immortal Express Shot]. A gentleman adventurer, the plant hunter does not hesitate to risk his skin to save ours! [Diabolique Tomate] and [Le Chardon et le Marabout] would both receive the Marie Claire France 2013 Excellence Award. [Immortal Express Shot] MG6P would shortly after receive the Grand Prix Avantages de la Beauté in 2015 as well as the Femme Actuelle 2016 award for the [Immortal Express Shot] EGF version.
