About Simkha Biocosmétiques

Simkha Biocosmétiques is a Montréal brand of natural, vegan skincare designed for reactive skin. It was created by biologist Muriel Christel Koucoi, who brings a scientific eye to gentle, plant-based formulas.

Its products suit people whose skin reacts easily to cold, wind or harsh ingredients, a common struggle during Quebec winters. Starting with one product and testing it on a small area is a sensible way to build a routine for sensitive skin. A small gift set is a thoughtful present for a friend who has trouble finding products that agree with her skin. It is a local, organic option made in Montréal.
