Our Story

Perfecting Beauty for Over 40 Years

Ripar Cosmetics is Italy’s foremost authority on advanced beauty solutions that help improve the appearance of the skin with science. Driven by the dedication and medical expertise of two generations of surgeons, the brand was founded by one of Italy’s most successful esthetic pioneers, Rita Parente, and her husband Dr. Mario Piombino,a renowned aesthetic and plastic surgeon.

Today, Ripar remains a family business under the guidance of Dr. Luca Piombino, also a prominent aesthetic plastic and reconstructive surgeon, and his sister Dr. Laura Piombino, specialist in aesthetic medicine and nutrition.

Together, this family team oversees every aspect of the brand from ingredients to formulations to packaging—an attention to detail that translates into the highest-quality, professional results of any beauty products available.

A Flawless Foundation

Since the beginning, Ripar’s goal has been to create innovative, cutting-edge makeup and skincare that flawlessly camouflages multiple skin concerns including redness, rosacea, acne, dark spots, and even surgical scars.

Starting with RiparCover Cream, a weightless, breathable, natural foundation that is transfer-proof, long- lasting, and sweat and water resistant, the brand continues to innovate highly-targeted, replenishing products that look and feel natural on skin, and perform effectively, hour after hour.

All of our products are formulated in-house at our laboratory in Italy, Ripar transforms the complexion and works on all skin types and tones to help reveal beauty and inspire confidence, all day long.
