A word
from the founder

The Paris-Dauphine Incubator helped us accelerate our development thanks to numerous exchanges with experts in all fields! Its network allowed us to be accompanied by a mentor and to have access to more calls for projects for student-entrepreneurs. And all this in a great atmosphere, where mutual help is the key word!

 

Julie Zimmermann, Co-founder of Pardi

 

A little bit
of history

From primary school benches to the steps of entrepreneurship, they were best friends even before they learned to apply make-up.

Both increasingly aware of the alarming amount of single-use plastic they throw away per year in cosmetics alone, the idea of refillable mascara seemed to them to be the most ecological and economical solution possible.

Together, Léa and Julie launched Pardi in March 2020 with the ambition of making make-up more eco-responsible. They carried out a market study with over 2,220 people, which confirmed their strong interest in the refillable make-up concept. Then, they decided to start with mascara, ranked as the most used make-up product, and it was from distance that the creation of their first product began. After a year and a half of development, Pardi’s mascara will be available for pre-sale on Ulule at the end of October 2021!
