French women are recognized the world over for their effortless beauty and style—the glowing skin, chic minimalism, and that undeniable je ne sais quoi.


But French men are no slouches either when it comes to looking effortlessly stylish!

On Boulevard Saint-Germain, or the streets of New York’s SoHo, you can spot a French man a mile away: luminous skin, confidently tousled hair, and a sense of understated elegance.


So, what’s their secret? A skincare routine that’s simple, effective, and meticulously crafted.


At Otis Skincare, we’ve taken the same principles that make French women so radiant—high-quality, no-fuss products tailored to their skin’s needs—and applied them to men.


The result? A line of skincare essentials developed in Paris and made in France, designed to help you achieve glowing, healthy skin with minimal effort. It’s all about giving you the tools to look good, feel confident, and epitomize French style.


Let’s show you how.

The French Know How to Make Great Skincare


French skincare is more than just trends - it’s about tradition. For decades, France has been the global epicenter of beauty and skincare, setting the bar for innovation, quality, and results. 

Here’s why:


  • A History of Expertise: French laboratories are world-renowned for their meticulous, innovative research and development. Every Otis Skincare product is formulated in one of these elite labs, ensuring the highest standards of efficacy and safety.
  • Stringent Regulations: Did you know that European cosmetic regulations are some of the toughest in the world? This means every single product in our range has been rigorously tested to ensure it delivers real results.
  • The Power of Native Ingredients: Many of our ingredients are sourced from the South of France, a region celebrated for its natural beauty and botanical richness.

At Otis Skincare, we’ve combined this French expertise with cutting-edge science to create products that feel luxurious, work powerfully, and elevate your grooming game.

One thing you’ll notice about French skincare? It’s refreshingly simple. It’s all about using a few highly effective, clinically tested products—and staying consistent with them.


That’s our philosophy. We’re here to keep our promises and deliver visible results with active ingredients that work.

02 PROTECTIVE SHAVE CREAM: A Luxurious Shaving Experience


Shaving can be harsh on your skin—but not when you use our PROTECTIVE SHAVE CREAM. Infused with nourishing ingredients like shea butter and aloe vera, this cream provides a close, comfortable shave while leaving your skin soft and smooth.

" This cream leaves a feeling of softness, the skin does not feel attacked.” – Idriss

What Sets It Apart:

What French Men Are Saying:


The composition of this cream seems natural and is very well thought out.

It is impossible to use common commercial products once you’ve discovered Otis Skincare shaving cream.” – Olivier R.

 

“… provides a close, comfortable and clean shave, but it possesses many advantages over oils: _ no silicone or other unnatural substances, _ 

a wonderful scent that melds well with their moisturizer (and Chanel Bleu), _ rinses off hands easily, and does not clog up the razor while shaving as oil does. 

Surely by now you know I love this product. You will too. Thanks OTIS” – Antony
