Coming inside this wonderful piece of Italian history,the Erbe founder proudly states;"Of course our first “ maestro” is the work
of famous herbalist physicians from the 15th centuries.
They were the first to codify and create beauty products as we know them today.
But, I must say that the fascinating and charming word of the women in my life
as I was growing up, had the strongest influence in my future chooses. Their life
style, the attention they had towards beauty and health, my mother exchanging
receipts and beauty secrets with friend, and the smell of the flowers in our
evenings promenades, made me realize that that was the world I
wanted to leave in, a simple and elegant life style made of quality and care"
Why not: Everything Old is New Again.
Aromatherapy is the use of natural flowers
and plants essential oil to enhance the health of body and mind. Essential oils
are found in flowers, roots, leaves, bark, wood and resins.
The healing practice through the use of
essential oils dates back in the history when Hypocrites claimed it as one of
the most effective medicine of that time. The first reported case of essential
oils based cure even occurred in ancient Egypt, where antiseptic natural
properties of unguents were well known.
From Egypt and the Middle East, knowledge of the art of essential oils traveled
to Greece, Rome and the Arab world. During the middle ages, alchemists were
experts in essential oils extraction and healing formulas preparations.
During the 18th and 19th centuries essential oils continued to represent a
major support for the healing system until they were replaced by synthetic
drugs. In Europe aromatherapy has been recognized for many years as valuable therapy
and it was indeed taught in medical schools.
Clinical studies show that inhaling the aroma of essential oils turns on the
entire neuron-endocrine system, the neurological area which intimately affects
our deepest emotion. The oils fragrance help re-establish harmony, either in
the body’s physiology up to a mental emotional level, balancing our entire
personality. Once absorbed through massage, essential oils penetrate into the
deeper layers of the skin helping to relieve areas of congestion and improving
the quality of our self regulating resources. Essential oils have properties
that make them suitable for the maintenance and health of the skin, for
personal hygiene, as well as to prevent unbalanced skin conditions. They also
help protect cellular membranes from premature aging processes and to diffuse
aromatic scents at home to perfume and disinfect. They also act to prevent a
wide range of skin disorders associated with aging, resulting in long-lasting,
positive effects.
Therefore, the versatile properties of these oils and their lack of side
effects make Aromatherapy a great alternative to conventional medicine for many
conditions.
Based
on years of experience and passion in the aromatherapy field, Erbe, which has
the reputation of extracting the best quality of essential oils in Italy, is
proud to introduce these healing and beautifying oils ready to use on the face,
body or as massage oils. Essential oils are extremely concentrated and cannot
be used pure, they are invariably deluded in base oils.

For centuries
Italian alchemists and herbalists have relied on the healing properties of
plants to treat particular skin conditions and to ameliorate the effects of
aging. It is an age-old practice that perhaps hasn’t been improved on.
The following
plants and flowers for example have been representing for centuries an
usually delicate,sensitive, soothing and protecting treatment with tonic
effects on the capillaries helping strengthen them, lighten redness and improve
micro-circulation.
Blue Chamomile essential oil which
soothes and calms irritation, relieves allergic reactions
Butcher’s Broom and Licorice which
have gentle anti-redness and anti-inflammatory action that reduce redness and
improve the tone of uneven blotchy skin
Hawthorn and Horse chestnut which
stimulate and improve circulation with a special tonic effect on the
capillaries, helping gradually strengthen and minimize visible ones.
Rose is known for its
antidiarrhoeal, purification, tonic and energizing properties. For topical use
this plant is appreciated for its antiseptic, astringent and healing action.
Rose again contains vitamin A, B, C, E, K, PP, tannins and pectin which are
used for their astringent, healing and toning properties.
