In the same spirit that our rural forefathers would have offered the finest fruits from their gardens,
we are today pleased and proud to introduce to you the products of our herbalist's laboratory.
We have always had a good relationship with the Earth: today in fact, our raw materials are still freshly pressed
vegetable oils, flower waters and herbs distilled drop by drop, juices of plants extracted with craftsmanlike patience, essences received as a gift from generous Mother Nature.
They arrive at L'Erbolario from the four corners of the world, they impregnate us, our workplaces, and even
the surrounding streets with their perfume. We then pour them liberally into our bottles, boxes and jars for all who
like us believe in the infinite properties of simple things, and know that to acquire beautiy through a conscious
use of nature, is an art to be cultivated with care, patience, knowledge and trust.
Nowadays it is difficult to practise natural beauty treatments with face packs from recently chopped fruit,
or with preparations of herbs personally picked. It should also be remembered that the sophisticated
modern extraction techniques are excellent allies and offer us increasingly effective and ultra-pure
vegetable extracts, extensin, phytosomes, fruit acids.
We believe therefore that many of you can share our philosophy which considers as essential an
alliance combining the precious wisdom of the past and the undeniable discoveries of the present.
A philosophy which combines classic phytotherapy and modern cosmetic science.
True to local and to family traditions, we have always been facinated by the infinite virtues of plants.
Our aim is to research their unexplored potential, embracing at the same time the precious aids of
science and of modern technologies.
All our phyto cosmetics are the fruit of enthusiasm for herbalism, acted out in almost 20 years of
production and success. They are often recommended, tested, criticised and improved by the
customers of our herbalist shop in Lodi, which is in fact older than the production laboratory itself.
This direct contact and feed back from our customers has been invaluable to us.
A top rate technical-scientific team (biologists, pharmacologists, chemists-cosmetologists, doctors and
chemical engineers) then monitors the quality of L'Erbolario cosmetics, produced in accordance with
the strictest health regulations and subject to thorough testing.
In order to ascertain the degree of tolerance they are finally tested through extended clinical trials
at the University of Pavia, one of the oldest and most prestigious universities in Italy.
Without naturally ever resorting to tests on animals.

It is extremely important for everybody to start off the day on the right foot: leaving the house with peace of mind, comfort, happy with the world after a good breakfast, music, and also the special care which we dedicate to ourselves in the bathroom. Nowadays the essentaial part of a man's personal care is shaving. So that this operation does not become a bore but instead a moment of narcissistic pleasure, L'Erbolario has introduced extremely fresh and easy-to-use products, beneficial and gentle on the skin. This is not all. In order to prevent those who have intelligently learnt to grant a few extra minutes to their appearance from being forced to loot women's cosmetics, the lines are enriched with actual beauty products, essential and effective, designed for men. |

The smallest children need the greatest care. And for children we have always dedicated gentleness above all. That of the most tender affection, but also of gestures, sounds and colours, the furniture in their room and the clothes they wear, that of the first toys and the first books they enjoy. L'Erbolario too, from an ideal garden, has chosen for them the most delicate flowers, the lightest fragrances, the most gentle extracts and oils to formulate five products which respect the special fragility of their brand-new skin. Cleanliness and protection will thus be deliciously pleasant and above all safe. |

In the L'Erbolario catalogue the fresh, floral and balmy scents for making the air in your home more pleasant had to be included. Your home will now have an open window on a fragrant garden with distant gentle meadows and fragrant woods. In order to make you forget smoke, the smells - not always pleasant - of the kitchen, we have introduced for you a small collection of herbs, flowers and essences so that each time you open the windows onto a lilac garden, a honeysuckle hedge or onto the balmy air of a forest of firs. |

L'Erbolario is proud of the quality of its products and the work to improve them constantly, always finding new applications for the treasures concealed in nature, which is what absorbs its greatest energies. It is also convinced that elegant clothes have a certain importance and therefore has always taken great care with packaging. This has led to highly attractive packed products, in our opinion which frequently become scented gifts. In order to contain them in the best possible way, here are bags, boxes, both small and large, which are appealing even before they are opened.
