Beauty from Swiss plants
Swiss plants are a diverse source of valuable active substances for natural cosmetics.
Switzerland is known for its stunning mountains and lakes, but its flora and fauna also have a lot to offer. The range of different altitudes in Switzerland means that the country has an abundant diversity of plants, which are also constantly being discovered for natural cosmetics. Allow us to introduce you to a selection of Swiss plants, flowers and fruits that are carefully selected and processed for BIOKOSMA natural cosmetic products.
Chokeberry
Aronia melanocarpa (L.)
A small, dark-violet berry, the chokeberry was first cultivated in European countries in the early 20th century. This 'power berry' originates from the forests of Canada.
Containing many valuable ingredients such as folic acid, flavonoids and a multitude of vitamins A, B, C, F and K, chokeberry extract is an ideal ingredient for natural cosmetics for mature, demanding skin.
Its antioxidative effect is one of its most useful properties. This protects the skin against environmental factors and prevents premature ageing. Reinforces the connective tissue, leaving it nourished and silky soft.
In partnership with BOTANICA, BIOKOSMA uses ORGANIC chokeberries sourced exclusively from controlled organic Swiss cultivation for its delicate shower cream and extra-rich, palm oil-free body cream.
