URGO

URGO is a French brand that has looked after the everyday care of the whole family for more than 60 years. Paris Pharmacy ships its face and body care to the US straight from Paris.

URGO: A French Brand Since 1958

The URGO story begins in 1958, with the launch of the very first ready-to-apply bandage, made with an exclusive aerated backing. Built on its long experience with dressings used in hospitals, the brand became, step by step, a familiar name in French pharmacies. Innovation is at the heart of URGO, and the brand relies on research and development to offer quality products based on original technologies, such as Filmogel and TLC. Over the years, URGO has grown well beyond the bandage: it now covers many small concerns of daily life, so the whole family can get back to their activities in comfort. Today, URGO offers a wide range of products for the small everyday troubles of the whole family, and it remains a French brand sold in pharmacies. Its skincare follows the same idea: simple products that are easy to use every day.

Key URGO Product Lines

• Purifying Syndet Non-Drying Cleansing Gel: A soap-free gel that cleanses oily skin without drying it, for the face, chest and back, from age 12.

Key Ingredients and Technology

A syndet is a soap-free cleanser: instead of soap, it uses mild cleansing agents that respect the skin's protective film. The URGO Purifying Syndet is built on an ultra-gentle base of sodium coco-sulfate and coco-glucoside, so the skin feels clean but not tight. It helps limit excess oil and shine and supports the skin barrier. Star anise fruit extract and potassium azeloyl diglycinate go with trehalose and aloe vera, while witch hazel water, panthenol and betaine complete the formula. The gel can be used morning and evening, on the face, the chest and the back, by teenagers and adults from age 12. It comes in a 200 ml tube with a light fragrance. Massage it onto damp skin, then rinse well with water and pat dry.
