SOAVO combines the power of selected alpine plants with organic plant extracts, oils and the purest essences. For SOAVO, essential oils are not only noble ingredients for the fragrance composition, but also highly effective ingredients in the care line.
One of the leading plants for our organic cosmetics is Austrian mountain lavender. Lavender is one of the most versatile essential oils with a wide range of effects and applications; it has mood-enhancing, regenerating, balancing and skin-care properties. As a "soul plant", lavender literally lets stress go to the bathroom. The light, fresh MOUNTAIN LAVENDER (Lavandula angustifolia) conveys serenity, freshness and clarity and combines effective skin care with a feeling of well-being.
REAL LAVENDER
(Lavandula angustifolia)
The essential oil of real lavender is considered to be particularly high-quality and noble - and it has a large and broad spectrum of effects: Real lavender is generally considered to be a mild, skin-friendly oil and also the "oil of the middle": It has an effect on the psyche - relaxing, balancing, at the same time restful and refreshing, for tension, restlessness and stress. It has nourishing, anti-inflammatory properties and is used in natural cosmetics and naturopathy, but also for hair and scalp care, as well as as a perfume and soothing scent in aromatherapy. Its scent profile is complex and beguilingly aromatic: airy and clear, fresh, floral and herbaceous and spicy.
There are other types of lavender in the large Lamiaceae family, with different growth patterns, scents and effects.
LAVENDER
(Lavandula stoechas)
Spanish lavender is valued for its special antibacterial effect and is used to treat colds.
SPIKE LAVENDER
(Lavandula vulgaris)
Spike lavender is a type of lavender with a strong, slightly sharp, herbaceous and camphor-like scent and is characterized by its large growth and specific antibacterial effect. The essential oil is very suitable for aroma care for massage oils and sports oils, also for saunas and strengthening inhalations.
LAVANDINE
(Lavandula intermedia)
Lavandin is a hybrid of spike lavender and real lavender, which is cultivated by propagation from cuttings and has a high oil yield. Lavandin oil has a fresh, herbaceous scent with a light camphor note.
"It deserves a special place in the world of plants and beauty care, because lavender contains many powers and messages. Its fresh, flowery scent is uplifting and invites you to recharge your batteries and forget stress and tension. Its effect is holistic for body and soul: it lets you breathe easy, has a balancing effect and ensures gently invigorating and sensually relaxed moments of well-being. "Slow down and rise" is the message of mountain lavender and also the credo for SOAVO natural cosmetics."

»Natural beauty is one thing,
which is not so high up,
which has yet to be discovered.
The sensual alone is not enough,
A little reflection is also part of it.«
