Our journal

TEAM DR JOSEPH was founded in 1986 with one clear conviction: skin health doesn't come from over-treating your skin, but from the intelligence of nature. Since then, we've certified natural cosmetics before it became the standard, committed to vegan formulations before it became a trend, and lived our responsibility before it was expected. In 2026, we celebrate our 40th anniversary and look back on four decades that show what happens when you stay true to what you believe in. Dive into our story!

Intimate hygiene is an important but often misunderstood topic, fraught with misconceptions and uncertainty. Proper care is not just for women – men should also choose gentle cleansing to prevent skin irritation and infection.

Drinking tea is not only a pleasure, but also has many positive effects on the skin and general well-being. The antioxidants in tea can help reduce cell damage caused by free radicals, preventing premature skin aging. In addition, adequate hydration helps maintain skin elasticity for a radiant and healthy appearance. Tea also has a calming effect, helping to reduce stress and promote a relaxed sense of well-being.

The skin microbiome is a highly sensitive ecosystem made up of millions of microorganisms. They inhabit the skin and play a central role in the skin barrier and the immune system. A healthy skin microbiome protects against pathogens, regulates inflammation and supports wound healing. In contrast, an imbalance can lead to dysbiosis and thus to skin problems such as acne or atopic dermatitis. With microbiome-friendly natural cosmetics, a balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle, however, the skin microbiome can be specifically protected, strengthened and regenerated.

Plants have more than 20 sensory organs that allow them to communicate not only within their cells, but also with other living beings and their environment. Some plant mechanisms, such as photosynthesis, also play a central role in our ecosystem. Without this cycle, which provides oxygen and food to a variety of living organisms, we humans would not be able to survive.

Instead of spending our time fighting the natural effects of time, we should focus on the real needs of our skin. We show you the art of well aging.

During the night, our skin primarily fulfills the function of detoxification. Here you can learn why you should avoid rich textures at night and how you can support the skin's natural rhythm and turn your sleep into a beauty sleep.

We touch the world, we feel its objects, but these sensations disappear all too quickly, leaving behind fleeting impressions. Our sense of touch is characteristic, and yet we know very little about it.

Smartphones, PCs and LED lights bombard our skin day after day with HEV (High Energy Visible), the so-called Blue Light. This is a significant cause of skin damage and premature skin aging. Our broadband sun protection covers the entire light spectrum and offers reliable protection against Blue Light.

Room fragrances are invisible messengers that influence moods and fill spaces with emotions. This is their unique power: bypassing conscious perception, they act directly on our memories and emotions.

Outdoor life is part of human nature. We dig in the ground, plant seeds, weed and water. When we garden, the stress of everyday life disappears and we are immersed in the here and now. Gardening is not just trendy, it has been proven to have many benefits for our physical and mental health.
