Chris Farrell. History in Facts.

The founder of the brand, Mrs. Chris Farrell, was inspired to create her first line of cosmetics by... commercial cosmetics available at the time. Chris's skin rejected the products lying on the shelves of German stores in the late 60s, and she decided to save her skin herself. Thus, she mixed the first care cream with her own hands in her own kitchen. And she intentionally did it without using mineral oils. This is how Revitam A cream was born, and its formula has not changed since 1969.

Cosmetic kitchen

The first sales of Chris Farrell cosmetics were conducted, in what is called “door to door” fashion. Chris, together with her husband, prepared jars of cream in the evenings, and during the day delivered them to the homes of potential customers. By the way, the brand was originally called Pourelle (from the French “Pour elle” - “For her”). But soon the brand was noticed by the French magazine Elle and, in the course of litigation, prohibited the use of this name outside Germany. So it was decided to give the cosmetics the name of its creator.

Call me Pourelle

In 1969, the word “orthomolecular” was not yet in the lexicon of cosmetics manufacturers. However, this is the term that can best describe the cosmetics that Chris Farrell started to produce. In the composition of cosmetics you will not find mineral oils and parabens (preservatives). But you will find an abundance of natural ingredients, vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants that are already in our skin. Only now cosmetics that boast a similar composition are starting to appear on the market. Chris Farrell products already have a rich history of production, 100% quality control and three generations of loyal customers throughout Europe.

The intuition to be first

Chris Farrell products are not distinguished by the bright design of their packaging. And it may seem that this is an oversight on Chris's part. However, this approach to the design of the brand was chosen intentionally. In Chris's own words: “I make products that work. And the jars for them can be whatever they want. At the end of the day, women don't come back for the jars, they come back for the contents”. German pragmatism is unmistakable in this approach.

A purely German approach to design

During its existence, the Chris Farrell brand has opened relatively few markets for itself. Black and white tubes and jars with miracle creams are well known in Europe, China and the Middle East. The company management explains such caution in exploring new markets by careful selection of partners. Companies whose employees have not been trained by Chris Farrell are not allowed to work with the brand. This is how the brand ensures people working on market development all share the same vision and goals.

Cautious expansion
