She and the turbo emulsifier make a great team... that always produces the very best creams! As they say, "You know when you’re onto a winner!"

Favourite product and why: Wow Line 3-in-1 Eye Contour Cream, because I know what I'm putting into it, and it's fabulous!

Favourite product and why: Sweet Orange Shampoo. It’s perfect for my hair, and I wouldn't change it for the world!

MARCO

Favourite product and why: Rose and Shea Butter Soap. I’ve grown fond of it because I have made many since I have been here.

Favourite product and why: Rose Hand Cream: simple and irreplaceable.

RADA

Rada is in charge of product packaging: semi-automatics and packaging machines have no secrets for her. Always cheerful and friendly, teamwork is her strong point!

Favourite product and why: Mirtilla Cleansing Mousse, because just a little is enough to cleanse the whole face and it lasts a long time!

Mario is our gentle giant! Since he joined the laboratory, the girls in production have never done any heavy lifting!

Andrea can turn his hand to anything. You’ll find him running between the production line and the semi-automatic and turbo machines. He’s our problem solver, our very own Mr Wolf.

Favourite product and why: Shea Butter, because it’s simple, practical and has all sorts of uses.

FEDERICA

Federica Federica is in charge of packaging the products that come to life and leave our workshop every day. There are so many, and she knows every one.
