​
Our organic and ecological Aloe Vera Barbadensis Miller grows naturally here on Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands, under what is considered the optimal conditions regarding weather and soil. Because we have what is considered to be one of the best Aloe Vera in the world, we chose only to use the very best part of it, the inner leaf gel, the rest is used as fertilizer, no waste. We only harvest what we need, and make all our products here on the island, to make sure the Aloe Vera stays as fresh as possible before use. All our other ingredients are natural and comply with the COSMOS directive. So go on, treat yourself!
​
Supplying you with a highly concentrated natural cosmetic product is our goal, but we also want you to contribute to preserving our environment with us. This is why we, at HERBANIA COSMETICS use recycled and recyclable material for our packaging. Let's be part of the beauty infinity loop!

OUR MISSION
To make your beauty routine as eco friendly as possible by providing you with environmentally friendly luxury skincare products. Where everything we produce and put on the market has our planet in mind. We are committed to constantly monitor the trends and possibility of environmentally friendly packaging, to give you some genuinely eco-friendly skincare products.
OUR GOAL
​
To reduce plastic pollution by creating awareness about the problem created by the beauty industry. For most of us, recycling is a normal thing, but what actually happens to the plastic afterwards? Only 30% of the plastic we use is actually being recycled, one of the main problems is the low demand for recycled plastic (6%).
​
We also would like to make people more conscious about what they apply to their skin. Mother nature already provides us with everything we need and more, so no need for synthetic ingredients for something that already exists.
OUR HISTORY
“Why don’t you do something about it?”
A sentence that should change me and my wife’s lives. As a SCUBA diving instructor, I’ve always had a passion for keeping our environment especially our seas clean and pristine. After a day of cleaning up the waterfront of Caleta de Fuste with the lovely crew of Miss SCUBA UK in 2019, I came home very distressed about the amount of littering we had cleaned up that day, and all my wife told me was.
“Why don’t you do something about it?”
​
Most of what we picked up was plastic bags and bottles, so I began looking into what alternatives there were and how I could help implement them. Plastic bags are more and more made from bio-degradable material, and drinking bottles are widely available in glass or in aluminum. More and more people also use reusable bags and drinking bottles. So plenty of alternatives for people to use.​ But how about the beauty industry? It is estimated that the beauty industry creates 120 billion units of packaging every year, and walking through your local supermarket, you will notice that most of that is in plastic containers and that there are almost no alternatives. So I started looking into providing beauty products in environmentally friendly packaging.
The only problem was I know nothing about beauty products. Luckily, my wife does. She has a chemistry degree from Nice Sophia Antipolis University and a Cosmetics degree from ISIPCA, Versailles. She has over 15 years of experience working in spas all over the world. Working with many brands in different spas, she has firsthand experienced the benefits of body treatment and the effects of cosmetics products on to the client’s skin. She is really the brain of this operation.
