We are thrilled to announce a new collaboration that unites our land and its generosity with the art of natural cosmetics. Oppio Novo, with its lavender fields in Monticchiello, has joined forces with Saeka Cosmetics, an independent cosmetics line that marries Tuscan ingredients with ancient Eastern holistic philosophy. This partnership is born from a shared vision: to enhance nature and its beneficial properties through high-quality products, crafted with care and passion. Our precious lavender thus becomes the main ingredient in the creation of an extraordinary and versatile product: lavender oliolite.
The secret of lavender infused oil: an ancient extraction method.
Infused oil is an ancient extraction method, with roots dating back to the Etruscan era. It’s a technique that captures the beneficial properties of a plant and transfers them to an oil. Saeka Cosmetics uses our lavender flowers, which are lightly crushed in a mortar and then left to macerate for 28 days in precious oils such as olive oil, perfect for dry skin, or sunflower oil, suitable for all skin types. This process, followed by careful filtering, creates a pure and powerful product.
The beneficial properties of an ancient gesture.
Lavender infused oil has a wide range of properties that make it an indispensable ally for skin care:
– Soothing and calming: ideal for irritated and reddened skin.
– Purifying: helps combat excess sebum, making it suitable even for blemish-prone skin.
– Relaxing: its scent affects the nervous system, reducing anxiety and stress and promoting a more peaceful and deep sleep. For this reason, it is particularly suitable for preparing beauty products for evening use.
A tailor-made experience for you...
To celebrate this collaboration, we will create unique and personalized experiences. You will have the opportunity to participate in live demonstrations to discover how the oleolite is made, and you will be able to try the product on your skin, creating a moment of well-being and knowledge in one of the most beautiful places in the Val d’Orcia.
Come and discover for yourself the essence of our lavender transformed into a beauty elixir. We would be delighted to share the passion and tradition that inspire this project with you.
