Our CEO, María del Pino Navarro, sat down with Telva for an interview where she reflects on Phergal’s 40+ year journey and shares some key insights that capture the philosophy behind our laboratories and the success of brands such as E’lifexir, Atashi, Naturtint, Clearé, Dr. Tree, Volumax, among others.
1️ “The key lies in listening to the skin and understanding the lifestyle of the person caring for it. More than just aesthetics, good cosmetics bring radiance, confidence and serenity.”
2️ “I’m not content with simply following the market: I always seek to redefine it — and that is crucial in our products.”
3️ “Skin requires science, consistency and respect. We create products that meet real needs, not just to fill shelves.”
4️ “The cosmetics industry has traditionally been female in terms of consumption, but not always in decision-making. At Phergal, women represent over 65% of our workforce.”
5️ “Hands are often neglected. Constantly exposed, yet too often we fail to give them the care they deserve.”
6️“We formulate with highly effective ingredients that deliver visible results in a short time, while helping people understand the needs of their skin and lifestyle.”
7️ “Caring for the skin is a way to care for the mind — this concept is essential in our approach before developing any product.”
8️ “Anti-cellulite, slimming and draining products should be used year-round. A sedentary lifestyle promotes their appearance, and consistency is key to seeing results.”
9️ “We are pharmacists who formulate with expertise, test with dermatologists, clinically evaluate efficacy, and operate with ethics, scientific rigor, and sustainable business practices.”
10“I’ve worked in nearly every department at Phergal, which has given me a global perspective to lead with confidence and develop cross-cutting products based on solid principles rather than fleeting trends.”
