Who are we ?

Institut Kallista, your beauty advisor, just like in a salon.

For over 25 years, we have been assisting women and men in choosing professional cosmetic treatments from renowned brands found in beauty salons, spas, and aesthetic centers.

Our Story

It all began in 2000, in Haute-Savoie, Veigy-Foncenex, with the opening of our physical beauty salon. Every day, our team of trained and qualified estheticians advises, performs treatments, and selects high-quality products designed to care for the skin with precision, sensoriality, and effectiveness.

In 2011, we extended our expertise by launching our first online store. The idea was to allow our customers to find their favorite professional brands directly at home while benefiting from the same level of advice as in a salon.

15 years later, our Institut Kallista online store has become a reference for many customers in France and Europe. We work with recognized professional brands such as Sothys, Guinot, Thalgo, LPG, Maria Galland, and Mary Cohr.

Séverine and Camille, your beauty advisors

Behind every order, every email, and every piece of advice, there are us: Séverine and Camille, your daily contacts.

Passionate about our profession and the world of cosmetics, we are committed to communicating with you to offer personalized advice worthy of a beauty salon.

We regularly receive training from brands on new products and protocols to guarantee you tailored professional advice.

We are here to advise you by email, phone, or directly via the site's chat.

And for those who prefer to speak in person — or who are less comfortable with online shopping — we also take orders by phone. It's that simple.
