Manufacturing process

During the process of manufacturing we invest a lot of time and energy to ensure a gentle and totally natural processing of the precious materials. Therefore we create our products without boiling the natural oils, or adding chemicals. We consult and work with people that carry long-lasting experience and know-how in the field of manufacturing in order to ensure the best possible results.

 

Soap Bar Production

For our soap bars we use the cold process method of saponification, exactly because no heating is used and the glycerine which is produced is retained within the soap. Saponification is a long-lasting procedure that carries on for hours and hours inside the moulded soap. Consequently, our soap is rich in glycerine, pertains all the natural properties of raw unprocessed olive oil and is ecological and biodegradable. After saponification, our soap ages for 6-8 weeks in a special room under controlled atmosphere humidity and natural ventilation. Our soap-makers produce our soaps 100% by hand, applying traditional methods and reviewing every step of the production.  Finally, our soaps are cut, wrapped and packaged also by hand.

Natural Elixirs - Ingredients

Almond Oil

Almond oil is made by pressing raw almonds. This is something you may have heard about in other health products, where something is “raw” or “cold pressed.” This means that little to no heat is used in the process, thereby preserving all the naturally occurring chemical compounds within the oil, so that they can directly benefit the skin. One of the biggest secrets behind the use of almond oil for skin treatments is the high level of fatty acids contained in the final oil mixture. Fatty acids serve as a natural emollient for the skin, and can help the skin lock in moisture by forming a protective barrier. Emollients are especially effective for conditions like acne, eczema, psoriasis, or rosacea. One of the main reasons why almond oil is beneficial is because of its ability to hydrate the skin. Almond oil works as a natural face exfoliator to help to remove dead skin cells and stimulate the growth of healthier skin. When used topically, the formulated almond oil for skin products or treatments is absorbed by the fatty cells of the skin. The moisture in the oil is then utilized by the tissues to repair damaged cells and give skin a more youthful appearance.

Rosewater

Rosewater has been used throughout history by women around the world. Rosewater was so popular in fact, even Cleopatra used it to keep her skin dewy and supple during her reign as Queen of Egypt. It was used as a means to cool hot angry skin in the summer heat as well as for its ability to smooth, nourish, and brighten uneven complexions.

Its not only about Gestalt patterns or design elements, but about the sense of Zeitgeist and perfection. Every single element is there to tell a story and invoke certain attitudes.

 

Philosophy

We identify beauty not only in the visuals, haptics or experiences associated with the product, but in the congruent effect of all elements synthesizing a unique explorative framework. We seek for the beauty of the moment and the beauty in timelessness, in rough nature and in simplicity.
