PRIMAVERA, a German-based skincare line, recently brought its products to North America — and I was absolutely delighted to find the products on the boutique shelves at Laniwai Spa at Disney’s brand-new resort on the Hawaiian island of Oahu last week! It’s also sold at my beloved Rancho La Puerta in Baja, California, Mexico, among other North American spas, as well as online.
The company has four product lines: face care, body care, wellness therapies and home fragrance that are based on pure essential oils, seed oils, base oils and plant extracts. Its products use the highest percentage of certified organic ingredients available. Further, over the course of the 25-year history of the company, PRIMAVERA has developed long-term partnerships with 18 growers around the world that provide more than 125 ingredients (farmed in their natural habitats) and share the company’s high ethical standards and environmental responsibility.
To that end, PRIMAVERA ingredients and products are not tested on animals, and they are packaged in recyclable glass bottles and jars with environmentally friendly UV protective coating that offers greater shelf stability. Interesting, the company’s new German headquarters has a carbon-neutral footprint. All good stuff!
Also good — okay great — are the PRIMAVERA body care products I sampled recently: the Restoring Rose Sallow Thorn Body Oil and Body Wash. Both feature key ingredients organic rose essential oil, sallow thorn oil and rose hip seed oil, as well as wheat germ oil. These ingredients not only moisturize but also help refine skin’s texture and prevent wrinkles and stretch marks.
The creamy body wash ($20 for a 5.1-oz container) simultaneously has an uplifting and soothing scent, and it foams up quickly. The body oil ($37 for a 3.4-oz glass bottle) feels so luxurious when applied to damp skin to lock in moisture. It not only hydrates skin but it lingers on the body for a subtle perfume, too. With PRIMAVERA products, I step out of the shower feeling like I’ve stepped into a spa!
In addition to the Restoring Rose Sallow Thorn line of body care products, consider the Energizing Ginger Lime, Relaxing Lavender Vanilla and Cleansing Juniper Cypress oils, lotions and washes.
