French skincare start-up Talm completed its first funding round with investment from Caudalie founders Mathilde and Bertrand Thomas through their family office.
WHO: Talm, a French women’s skincare brand was launched in 2021 by luxury beauty executive Kenza Keller, who worked at Byredo, Hermès, and Guerlain. The brand's name means "to all mamas" and is positioned as a premium dermocosmetics brand focusing on maternity skincare. Talm’s products are made in France and made with 100% natural, vegan, and organic ingredients that are tracked for transparency and quality control. The range includes Mega Oil, Mega Serum, Mega Balm, and Mega Hair supplements. Talm is distributed in 10 international markets by retailers like Oh My Cream!, the Smallable website, the Grande Pharmacie Bailly, and the Galeries Lafayette.
WHY: The investment will help fuel growth. The brand has a facial skincare collection planned to launch in the second half of 2023.
IN THEIR OWN WORDS: “I was immediately won over by Kenza Keller's project. Her approach is very inspiring, modern and unique. I truly believe in her brand’s potential, and I am very proud of supporting a brilliant new brand, 30 years after I embarked on an incredible entrepreneurial adventure myself,” said Mathilde Thomas, co-founder of Caudalie.
