Scientific Foundation: The brand combines cutting-edge research with dermatological safety. Every formula is rigorously tested for efficacy, safety, and tolerance. Safety Standards: Products are clinically, dermatologically, and ophthalmologically tested. They are hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic, and specifically tested for five heavy metals (Nickel, Cobalt, Chromium, Palladium, and Mercury) to minimize skin sensitivity.

Hydration: The Aqua line focuses on restoring deep and superficial skin moisture using high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid. Anti-Aging: Specialized tiers include Micro (early signs), Hydrotenseur (advanced signs), and Progression HD (advanced aging and deep wrinkles). Problematic Skin: Lines like Acnestil target oily and acne-prone skin, while D-Clar focuses on hyperpigmentation and melasma. Body and Sun Care: Extensive ranges for body sagging, cellulite, and a comprehensive Sun System for broad-spectrum photoprotection. Makeup: The brand also produces corrective and decorative makeup, including a best-selling volume mascara. Global Presence and Partnerships Distribution: Rilastil is a market leader in Italy and is distributed in over 90 countries worldwide.
