N°63 Invigorating Ointment
The new enriched formula features macadamia oil for skin healing, cetyl esters for deep hydration, and white beeswax known for its anti-inflammatory and softening properties. Cocoa butter is a nutrient-rich powerhouse with skin-balancing benefits, along with additional ingredients like lanolin, grape seed oil, and rosemary extract. The cream deeply nourishes and supports skin elasticity and regeneration.
Experts in Ancient Roman history claim that this cream was invented by the personal physician of Emperor Marcus Aurelius, a brilliant anatomist and philosopher, who coined the term “active ingredient” and treated his patients with “plant extracts”. His name was Claudius Galenus. The original recipe of this “cold cream” contained beeswax, spermaceti, water and a blend of plant oils. Over the centuries it served as a one-of-a-kind, indispensable cosmetic treatment giving skin a silky-smooth appearance. How the women of our family dynasty discovered this recipe remains a mystery, however, in our family archive this formula is one of the oldest and is called: “Roman cold cream”.
