Essere is cosmetics at full concentration.
Essere Bio makes natural cosmetics for hair, face and body, formulated and produced in Tuscany.
Every formula comes from the work of expert formulators, herbalists, industry professionals and demanding consumers. We bring together technique, nature, experience and honesty to make cosmetics that truly work.
Nothing is left to chance.
What we mean
A high-performance cosmetic works on skin and hair in a concrete way: it improves them right away and over time, respects their balance and meets each person's specific needs. Every choice we make starts from here.
How a formula comes together
We start by selecting the raw materials: natural origin ingredients, actives from organic farming and functional substances chosen through careful research. Then we balance them precisely, so every product is effective and a pleasure to use.
Why natural ingredients
For us, natural is a practical tool: we use it to get real, lasting results on skin and hair.
Effective, safe and a pleasure to use.
-
Natural origin, ISO 16128
We use natural origin ingredients in high percentages. Each product's percentage is calculated according to the international ISO 16128 standard: you'll find it on the pack and on the product page.
-
Nickel tested
Every batch we sell goes through specific testing to rule out heavy metals such as nickel, cobalt and chromium. It's a check designed with the most sensitive skin in mind, too.
-
Dermatologically tested
All our products are dermatologically tested to ensure they are suitable for and well tolerated by the skin.
-
Vegan and cruelty-free
Our formulas contain no animal-derived ingredients, and no product is tested on animals. We follow the strictest European regulations.
-
Packaging and shipping
Our packaging is made from plant-based and recycled plastics, FSC-certified paper, glass and aluminum. We weigh its environmental impact while we're still designing it. Our parcels are recycled paper too, sealed with paper tape.
We produce in our own labs in Tuscany.
The lab
This is where our formulas are born and where we produce Essere cosmetics. Our raw materials come from selected, accredited Italian and European suppliers. A short supply chain lets us keep quality high and prices in check. We ship orders from here every day, quickly and reliably.
The people
Essere Bio is made of skilled, passionate people who work with care, respect and a sense of civic responsibility, and who believe in collaboration.
Our commitment
We want to keep improving our products and services, so they become ever more effective, responsible and close to the needs of the people who use them. On our site you'll also find the Essere Beauty Journal, where we explain ingredients, routines and how to care for your skin and hair.
