About Us

French Pharmacy Heritage. Proven Over Time.

Our Philosophy

Glow with Confidence

A313 is a cult French pharmacy formula with a history dating back to 1948.

Originally developed as a pharmaceutical-grade ointment, it was trusted by dermatologists for its ability to support skin renewal using Vitamin A.

Today, the formula is produced by Pharma Développement, a French pharmaceutical laboratory founded in 1990 and based in Corbigny, in the Burgundy region of France.

Since 2008, under the leadership of Mario Giron, the brand has expanded internationally — bringing this iconic formula to a global audience.

Now available across five continents, A313 remains true to its origins: simple, effective, and grounded in pharmaceutical expertise.

The Formula

At the core of A313 is retinyl palmitate, a form of Vitamin A known for supporting the skin’s natural renewal process.

This gentle yet effective derivative helps to:

Refine the appearance of skin texture
Support collagen production
Improve overall skin radiance

Designed for consistent use, A313 delivers visible results over time - without unnecessary complexity.
