Orange: This intense colour is in full sync with inner vitality and harmony and has a mood re-balancing effect. Proven to be highly beneficial to the skin is the value of the phytocosmetic actions of the fine plant ingredients, particularly these three fruits, selected by L'Erbolario research for their compacting action on skin tissues: Mandarin, Bitter orange and Chinese Lantern.
The mandarin's native country of was believed to be China: and when it appeared in Europe in the mid 1800s, the colour of the fruit was associated with the ancient noble Chinese governors, the Mandarins. L'Erbolario has chosen it for its high content of flavonoids, Vitamin C, Group B and A vitamins, Iron, Magnesium and Folic Acid: these products contain the extracts from its pulp, leaves and peel, and a pure distilled Water from its fruits, all to provide your skin with antioxidant and protective effects. Bitter Orange, from the Citrus aurantium plant, arrived in Sicily with the Arabs, who have been farming it since the end of the first millennium. It was also widely used in Traditional Chinese Medicine, for its stimulating properties on vital physiological functions. Here it is used to make your skin supple, through the softening and toning properties of the extract obtained from its peel. Lastly, it is rich in Tannins, Vitamins, Saccharides and the Mineral salts from Chinese Lantern, an edible berry whose name means "bubble", because the cover enclosing the fruit has a graceful spherical shape: its active ingredients enrich the hydroglycerine extract which makes these formulas capable of moisturising and re-awakening the freshness of your skin. Accordo Arancio will make your skin beautifully soft and smooth, thanks to the effects of these properties and it's sophisticated scent is the ideal daily companion for every woman and every man.
