TIL
TiL, is a story of French sisters … 1,2,3 …Odile, Sylvie, and Dominique. One has always worked in cosmetics, another in perfumes, and the third is a painter… in our family we like to use all 5 senses! We have grown up, laughed and cried together, we’ve protected, bickered, made up, hugged and loved each other. It is the story of our lives, under the lindens and elsewhere. Lives that need meaning and passions, and to share them.
A FRENCH FAMILY STORY
TiL, is the love three sisters have for the land of their childhood, that of their father and their grandfather before him. It is the same love of nature, the same desire to take care of and preserve the tree of a thousand properties, the linden. And the same desire to share its calming and regenerative powers with you, those we’ve had the good fortune to enjoy.
IN THE HEART OF THE DORDOGNE
It is at the heart of the unspoiled Dordogne, an oasis of calm where people still live in time with the seasons, of time rediscovered. A rough place with frigid winters and generous summers. An ancient land, at once the cradle of humanity, the scene of Homeric battles that made the History of France, and a land of unparalleled quality of life. It is in this land of hills and forests, streams and fields, in the heart of the Périgord-Limousin Regional Nature Preserve, that the TiL domain is located. A 17th century building, French Gardens with hundreds of lindens. An old place loaded with history that carries a resolutely modern philosophy: that of the here and now, and of time for yourself.
A BRAND COMMITTED TO “BETTER LIVING”
TiL is a family run beauty and wellbeing brand based on the only natural antidote to stress: the linden tree. Healthy, effective pleasing products, that for the first time take care of your skin, your body and your mind at the same time. And because protecting the planet also protects us, and because it is part of who we are, TiL is deeply committed to ecoresponsability.
THE RANGE
A range of holistic beauty and wellbeing products, formulated around the linden tree and its exceptional powers for the skin, body and mind. Calming, regenerating, detoxifying and deliciously scented, it is at the heart of all our products. Our natural cosmetic care, made with our exclusive active ingredient extracted from our Dordogne family estate’s linden trees, our perfume created by star perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, and our dietary supplement take care of you effectively while delighting your senses.

2. All our products are clean, good for your skin and the planet, we are committed to transparency.

OUR COMMITMENT TO BEING LOCAL AND TRACEABLE
Our cosmetics are 100% made in France , but beyond that, TiL is rooted in the Dordogne, like our lindens! The buds, flowers, leaves and branches that make up TIL’s exclusive active ingredient, Tiliactiv4®, are hand picked by professionals who are highly respectful of the trees on our family domain which is in the heart of the Perigord Limousin Regional Nature Preserve, at the end of March for the buds and branches, and at the end of June for the leaves and flowers. Nature is not always predictable, but even if it isn’t always easy or convenient, we adapt to it because nature decides what is right.
Our cosmetic production facility is in the Dordogne, as are the headquarters and offices of TiL which are very close to our domain in Saint Pierre de Frugie, a beautiful old village and one of France’s first organic villages. Very committed to the cause, it owes its renaissance to its ecological commitment, which is regularly held up as an example.
