Ecrinal is the nail, lash, brow and hair care brand of Laboratoires Asepta, formulated and made in Monaco since 1965. Its reputation rests on one ingredient complex, ANP2+, developed by Asepta to strengthen what becomes thin: brittle or soft nails, sparse lashes and brows, fine hair that is losing density. Laboratoire Larima, founded in Quebec in 1979, is the exclusive importer of Ecrinal in Canada, and this collection gathers the complete range sold here.
Three families, one method
For nails, lashes and brows, the core products are the ANP2+ fortifying nail cream, the penetrating strengthener, the serum with ten precious oils for dry nails and cuticles, and the ANP2+ lash gel and mascara, which strengthen lashes while they are worn. Around them sit the bitter polish for bitten nails, the ridge-filling base coat, the brightener and the non-acetone remover. For hair, the ANP2+ strength and density program combines the fortifying shampoo, the strengthening lotion, the vials and the nourishing mask, alongside targeted shampoos for dry hair, oily hair or a flaky scalp. For colour, the Silicium + Tea Tree polishes and the d'âme nature shades are formulated to be gentle on fragile nails, from pale nude to passion red.
How to use it, and what to expect
Ecrinal rewards regularity. A nail renews itself over several months, so a strengthener applied a few times a week shows its result over a full season; lashes and hair follow their own cycles. Each product page gives the routine and the frequency. Ecrinal nail and lash products are also found in participating pharmacies across Canada; the full range, including the hair care line and the polishes, is here. Orders ship from Terrebonne, Quebec, with up to three free samples, and can be returned within 30 days. Shipping is free in Canada on orders of $100 or more.
