E' una linea greca mooolto lussuosa, mi ero imbattuta in un loro negozio a Barcellona e devo dire che mi attiravano non poco! Non usa nè siliconi nè olii minerali, le loro premesse:
The formulation of natural products requires in-depth knowledge of natural ingredients and the use of technology to make skin-friendly and environment friendly syntheses.
There are four families of active natural ingredients that we choose for our products:
1.Medicinal herbs (our pharmacy heritage)
Herbs with well-known medicinal and cosmetic properties that we have used in our pharmacy for (hypericum), Echinacea, Thyme, Gingo biloba, Ginseng, Hamamelis, Evening primrose, Aloe vera.
2.Greek Flora
Greek flora is particularly rich with more than 5000 herbs and plants and 1200 indigenous species, known for their traditional use, such as Olive oil, Basil, Camomile, Fennel, Sage, Linden, Rosemary. Among them we find ingredients that are very rare or unique to the world, grow in specific areas of Greece, harvested and naturally processed by the people of local communities. Such ingredients are Mastiha from the island of Chios and Saffron (Krokus) from the village Krokus in Kozani, northeastern Greece.
3.Food ingredients
Some food ingredients are well known for their supreme nutritional value thanks to their high content of antioxidants, humectants, vitamins, minerals and even live cultures. At Korres, real edible Yoghurt and Greek Thyme Honey are incorporated in their natural form into the formulas in order to maintain their properties. Yoghurt cooling gel contains edible Greek yoghurt, an ingredient used for hundreds of years as a skin remedy against sunburn!
4.High-efficacy natural ingredients
New, high-efficacy herbal ingredients, the latest outcome in the Science of Cosmetology, such as Hibiscus, Argan, Andiroba, Wild Mango, Mourera fluviatilis, Imperata cylindrica, Sunflower can be obtained through advanced technologies and offer excellent antioxidant, anti-ageing and DNA-protective properties.
Mineral oil, the synthetic product of chemically processed petroleum, which is known to block skin pores, is replaced by vegetable oils of excellent quality and skin compatibility.
Silicones, a wide family of synthetic, non-biodegradable compounds, are replaced by dry vegetable oils with a velvety texture and substantial moisturizing and nourishing properties.Propylene glycol, a widely used solvent linked with a number of allergies, is replaced by butylene glycol and other solvents, which are safe and compatible with the skin.
All our products are enriched with active plant extracts that offer the richest possible content of actives in a standardized concentration that ensures maximum efficacy.
