ORIGIN
Sálvora is a new brand of organic cosmetics that involves innovative ingredients developed by Celtalga Extract, Ltd., a spin-off of the University of Santiago de Compostela. Celtalga manufactures aqueous extracts from brown and green seaweeds collected in the Galician coast. The ultrasound-assisted process applied to obtain extracts uses water as the only solvent, thus being an eco-friendly process. Both ingredients and process are patented by the University of Santiago).
MOTIVATION
We wish the society to benefit from the goodness of seaweed extracts properties, through an innovative proposal of facial skin care products. Lab tests of the extracts both in vitro and chemical ones, evidence free radical scavenging, inhibition of the protein glycosylation and several enzymatic activities- such as antielastase and antihyaluronidase- that imply protection against skin damage, be it from aging or oher factors.
MISSION AND VALUES.
Our goal is providing people a natural, organic and also bioactive proposal in the form of a facial cream that protects its skin. We offer a formula that was dreamt low and made in Galicia to take care of the sea and of the people. A product with added value from the beginning to the end, starting with the artisanal collection of the seaweeds and following with the state of the art research at the lab to achieve a unique, original creation.
Developments.
At the present day we introduce two products: a moisturizing & antioxidant cream and an antiaging one. The two of them are very well pondered, delicate, natural formulas that hold a very clear manifesto.
