CODAGE has extensively trained CHI therapists on the process of creating a custom-blended serum taking into consideration each client’s specific skincare concerns and environment. The spa therapists have also been trained in the CODAGE “gestures,” which are specific movements used in the spa menu’s four facials and two body treatments to maximize the efficacy of the products.

Serums are at the heart of CODAGE’s expertise with fluids to provide a very high concentration of active ingredients that can penetrate the deepest layers of the epidermis. CHI, The Spa’s expert therapists will assist clients to create a made-to-measure formulation perfectly suited to their skin’s needs. These custom creations are complemented by a full collection of “ready-to-wear” serums to address the most common skin concerns.

In addition to serums, CODAGE has created a full collection of products to cleanse, exfoliate, hydrate, treat, and protect skin. The vegan and cruelty-free brand, which was founded in 2010 by brother and sister Amandine and Julien Azencott, is made in France in their own laboratory based in Nice.
