Founded in 2009, 66°30 is one of the pioneering brands of certified organic skincare for men.

Origins

Organic care from another angle...

66°30 is the angle of inclination of the Earth and the origin of the seasons.

 

This symbolic contrast between the force of the universe and the fragility of its equilibrium is reflected in the life of today’s urban man.

 

Created for today’s man, driven by similar forces of strength and vulnerability, confident in the future, yet also aware of the fragile equilibrium of his environment and his skin... 66°30 is a new line of organic certified skincare dedicated to him.

Our values

A brand engaged

Like the people it supports, the brand adheres to the most demanding values and is committed to ecological, environmental and social issues:

  • Organic certification by Ecocert and Cosmos organic, vegan
  • Member of the association Cosmébio
  • Packaging limited to the strict minimum
  • 100% recycled paper whenever possible (or PEFC, from sustainably managed forests)
  • Support to several associations fighting against precariousness and exclusion...
Didier Arthaud

An urban, optimistic and engaged man

A graduate of EM Lyon and Pace University in New York City, Didier Arthaud has held senior positions in French and international sales management and marketing groups.

 

Along with this intense work, Didier Arthaud leads many battles against the challenges of our modern societies (illness, poor housing, precarious living situations...) by creating, in the early 90’s, an organization to provide food and shelter to some of our poorest neighbors.

 

Passionate about ecology and convinced of the urgent need to change and to promote new models of economic development which better respect both human beings and the planet, he decided in 2007 to participate in building this new economy by launching a new line of sustainable, organic skin care products for men. 

 

The 66°30 brand therefore has a very specific soul, that of its creator, who is enthusiastic, optimistic and convinced that the best of our world and our humanity is yet to come, provided that we are actively involved in it now.
