Inspired by the natural skincare remedies of the \u201cboticarias\u201d \u2013 or apothecaries \u2013 that dotted the side streets of 1940\u2019s Havana, Archipelago Botanicals recreated the natural formulations used to promote beautiful, hydrated skin in its newest collection of amazing bath & body products: Boticario de Havana.<\/p>\n

Boticario de Havana utilizes natural ingredients straight from the islands \u2013 such as coffee bean, tobacco flower and fruit extracts – known to be rich in alpha hydroxyl acids, antioxidants and other agents that actively promote healthy skin. Pineapple extract removes damaged cells, promotes skin elasticity; orange oil is rich in Vitamin E, contains natural antioxidants that inhibit the progression of age-causing free radicals and is soothing to dry skin; sugar is a natural exfoliator and rich in AHA\u2019s which minimize red or blotchy skin; and the caffeine in coffee bean is known to minimize redness and puffiness.<\/p>\n

The collection\u2019s fragrance is based on Archipelago\u2019s runaway bestselling home fragrance blend of Bergamot, Tobacco Leaf and Ylang Ylang, however Boticario de Havana features a more concentrated Bergamot component for a clean, citrusy fragrance which is perfect for personal care products and appeals to men and women alike. With its \u201cgreen\u201d packaging (boxes use recycled materials that fold together, using no glue) \u2013 this collection is both good for the planet and good for the skin. Furthermore the lotions, cr\u00e8mes and balms are PARABEN FREE.<\/p>\n
