Since its creation in 1948, the TALIKA laboratories have been developing original and effective products that suit women's needs perfectly.
All started at the ophtalmological department of the famous Paris hospital "Hôpitaux de Paris". A young woman Doctor, named Danielle Roches, develops an anti-bacterial cream with plant extracts to help cure people suffering from dramatic face and eyes burns due to war casualties. The results of her cream are astonishing: the lashes of her patients regrow quickly and dramatically. This miracle discovery is the birth of Lipocils, universal "best seller", that has seducted and helped millions of women thanks to its efficiency.
Today, Talika proposes original and effective solutions to eye care, hand care and nail care concerns. All products are clinically tested, independently, by a team of dermatologists at hôpitaux Paris Pitié-Salpetrière.
Alexis de Brosses, President of Talika explains: "My vision of our company and brand is to propose products that are developed with full respect to Nature and to our customers".
I have only one aim: make the women who use the Talika products happier and more serene in life."
-----the President's word
Clinical Tests
Talika's promise is to provide highly efficient formulation. All key Talika products are tested for efficacy at Laboratoire GREDECO, an independant institution attached to Hospital Pitié-Salpêtrière in Paris, France.
Lipocils and Eyebrow lipocils clinical tests
Clinical Trial report (Tests conducted at the Hospital La Pitié - Salpêtrière - Paris)
At the request of the manufacturer, a Clinical Trial has been conducted in 1997 in France by GREDECO, a laboratory specialized in the evaluation of dermatological and cosmetic products.

Eye Detox Contour Gel & Purifying Capsules clinical tests
Tests and results (A clinically proven efficacy by a team of dermatologists from Hospital La Pitie Salpêtrière in Paris)
Principle; 1. Action on the vasculary and lymphatic system located in the eye area: Microcirculation (of blood and lymph) has a key role in this fragile area. A slowing down of this microcirculation has a direct effect on the tonicity of the small vessels. This is the origin of the under eye oedema (puffiness) and coloration (dark circles). The eye blinks play an important role as an activator of this microcirculation, however, factors such as stress, pollution, lack of sleep, and aging will gradually slow this process. 2. Another very important factor: the liver. The ancestral medical traditions teach that the health of the hepatitic system can be read in the eyes.
An amazing innovation, Eye Detox, has been specially formulated to reverse these effects.
Eye Contour Gel : Eye Contour Gel is one of the two applications of this new concept. Applied daily around the eye area (after cleansing), it efficiently acts to visibly reduce the appearance of under eye puffiness and dark circles.
How to use : Eye Contour Gel is delivered accurately and comfortably with a pen-like shaped applicator. Hold the top of the "pen" and rotate until product appears at top of applicator... then turn one quarter of a turn for each application.
Advice : Eye Detox Contour Gel is both a preventive and curative treatment. For best results, use it in combination with Eye Detox Purifying Capsules to efficiently erase dark circlnes and puffiness.
Clinical tests : After 28 days of daily use, their laboratories have observed an 85% reduction of dark rings and 100% reduction of eye bags!
Before After
Ingredients :
Peptides : hydrating and rejuvenating action Proteins of sweet white lupine: repairs, regenerates and hydrates Proteins of sweet almond: smoothness and tightness is restored Cornflower water: soothing and softening effect Extract of horse chestnut: decongests the eye contour
Nail serum clinical tests
Clinical tests Marked increase in the number of keratin cells at the nail base and increase in the ungual dermis quality.
Without treatment : Rare and isolated keratin cells and thin, fragile dermis.
After 28-day treatment : Increase in keratin cells and restored, thicker, higher quality dermis.
