frei® - for the love of your skin

Long before the cosmetics industry identified stress as one of the skin’s biggest foes, there was a man who was way ahead of his time. More than 50 years ago the pharmacist Walter Bouhon saw the effects of internal and external factors on his customers’ skin. This body of experience was his inspiration, and balance was his key to beautiful and healthy skin. With love, a vision for innovative research and a flair for balanced combinations of active ingredients he created frei®. A unique approach to care that restores balance and harmony to your skin.

Walter Bouhon, whose legendary recipes use oil as an active ingredient, was one of the very first to use high concentrations of vitamin A in the 1980s, and this ingredient is still very important in dermatology and anti-ageing skin care today. For the Bouhon family of pharmacists, the topic of balance is more relevant than ever, given that skin has never been exposed to so many environmental factors, nor has the need of women to actively counter premature ageing been so great. The frei® pharmacy cosmetics, which are still developed in Nuremberg, Germany, support the skin at all stages of life. Their secret lies in the ideal interaction of specialist scientific knowledge, passion for the needs of the skin and a keen attention to detail. The recipes combine the highest standards in terms of quality and skin-friendliness. Highly-concentrated compounds that act on the skin and gently soothing ingredients create an immediate sensation of wellness and can also improve the skin’s condition in the long term. The visible result is a skin bursting with energy, tone and elasticity, today and in the future.
