Cosmetics - Sicilian Lemon

While growing up in Sicily my bedroom window directly overlooked
Mt. Etna. I remember, as if it was yesterday, my grandmother
telling me bedtime stories about the power and beauty of this
awesome structure.
She would tell me that this beautiful place was a “Vulcano”
named after the Roman diety Vulcan. Vulcan was the god of fire
and volcanoes, and the manufacturer of art, arms, iron, and
armor for gods and heroes.
She would point and say his workshop was “right there” underneath Mount Etna. She told me to watch and see if I noticed hot lava or clouds of dust erupting from the mountain. “When you do that is Vulcan hard at work as he beats out thunderbolts for Jupiter, king of the gods, and weapons for Mars, the god of war.”, she would proclaim.
As I got older I realized that these were just
wonderful stories. However, I continued to have a fascination
with this magical place. Our family owned several orange and
olive groves throughout the area and I learned that the fertile
volcanic soils helped support our agriculture business. Also,
this astounding mountain is filled with precious minerals that
are wonderful for moisturizing, exfoliating, soothing, toning
and healing.
In the air you can smell the pleasing sweet scent of the Mt.
Etna Brooms (Genista Aetnensis) and Sicilian Lemons.
From this inspiring region we have created a collection
utilizing these special and unique ingredients. Thank you for
entrusting me with your beauty.
