Founded in 1932, Boiron is known worldwide for its expertise in homeopathy. Less well known is its cosmetics line, which applies the same pharmaceutical standards to everyday skincare: relief from insect bites, muscle and joint comfort, care for sensitive skin and lips, and CBD-based wellness products.
These products fall under Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009 on cosmetic products: they are neither drugs nor medical devices. This distinction governs what these products can and cannot claim—our pharmacy team is here to advise you accordingly.
The Dapis stick and gel are formulated with essential oils (spearmint lavender, lavandin, geranium) known for their soothing effect on itchy skin after a mosquito or insect bite. The 3-ml roll-on size fits easily into a travel bag.
Useful note: Boiron also offers Dapis mosquito repellents in roll-on and spray formats. These products are subject to biocidal regulations that differ from the cosmetics presented here.
Formulated with fresh, organically grown Arnica montana plants, this cosmetic line supports recovery after exercise and helps relieve everyday tension, without any therapeutic claims:
The CBD by Boiron® line combines natural CBD derived from organic Cannabis sativa with plant extracts (arnica, harpagophytum) in a cosmetic formulation designed for massage:
The CBD used is isolated from other cannabinoids and has no psychoactive effects.
Made with organic calendula, the Dermoplasmine® line offers unscented products suitable for even the most sensitive skin:
The 2-in-1 Diaper Rash Cream protects and soothes baby’s bottom every day, with the same commitment to minimalist formulations as the rest of the Boiron cosmetic line.
“When it comes to a Boiron cosmetic product—whether for an insect bite, muscle tension, or irritated skin—my role is first and foremost to help you distinguish between issues that are a matter of everyday comfort and those that require medical advice. Persistent itching, joint pain that sets in, or irritation that won’t heal warrant a consultation: cosmetic care is a complement, not a substitute for medical treatment.”
— Arnaud Comaills, Doctor of Pharmacy, Pharmacie de Mailloles (Perpignan)
