e are proud to say that every product in our skincare, hair, bath and shower range is formulated exclusively with plant waters instead of plain water. Plant waters are invaluable for the skin cells because they boost their natural life energy and regeneration ability by replenishing them with precious vitamins and minerals. Phenomé’s products never contain plain water. When you buy our products, you never pay for plain water which is frequently the main constituent of regular cosmetics.

it supports the ingredient’s biological activity, making the cosmetic product far more effective. • On account of these amazing properties, plant water is also known as living water whereas other types of water commonly used in cosmetic formulations (such as distilled, demineralized, or mineral water) can be referred to as “inert”, i.e. devoid of any life-giving properties.
