About
Oliosco – A workshop nestled in the heart of the Var countryside, deeply committed to the environment and passionate about local flora and fauna—and the preservation of our beautiful natural surroundings in the Var!
Tired of mass-produced cosmetics containing toxic ingredients, I began crafting cold-processed soaps in 2010, using plants gathered from the hillsides for my family, friends, and—most importantly—my children. The idea took root, and I eventually decided to launch my own line of natural, zero-waste cosmetic products!
Having always been passionate about Mediterranean plants and botany—a love passed down from my father, a botanist—I decided to bring my soaps to a wider audience so that many more people could enjoy these natural, handmade creations. I meticulously select high-quality ingredients: premium vegetable oils (such as olive, castor, coconut, macadamia, broccoli, jojoba, safflower, and hemp) and various clays, each offering unique properties and colors (green, yellow, red, and white kaolin clay). Above all, I incorporate the local plants of the Var—botanicals that I hold very dear!
Our forests are brimming with plants that possess "superpowers," and I felt inspired to put them to good use.
There is no need for harsh chemicals or synthetic additives; for thousands of years, nature has provided us with its own beauty secrets!
Deeply concerned about the future of our planet, ecological issues, and the health of the most vulnerable, it was only natural for me to embrace the cold-process soap-making method. It is a process that respects both human health and the environment—which is why I have developed a zero-waste product range, completely free of plastic packaging.
