Our Story
Nuestra historia
Manuela Valenti fundó valenti™ ORGANICS a principios de 2007 después de buscar desesperadamente alivio para la dermatitis no diagnosticada de décadas que la atormentaba y dejaba el 90% de su cuerpo cubierto de cicatrices.
Después de toda una vida de alergias en la piel, irritación y prurito crónico que provocaron heridas infectadas y cicatrices permanentes, Manuela analizó más de cerca lo que realmente le causaba molestias y encontró productos comerciales para el cuidado de la piel y jabones para el cuerpo, incluso los aparentemente "naturales". Unos eran, y habían sido durante décadas, dañando su piel debido a los altos niveles de irritantes, ingredientes de bajo grado, fórmulas desequilibradas y productos químicos nocivos con los que fueron formulados.
Con un doctorado en Psicología, una exitosa carrera artística de más de 30 en su haber, armada con nada más que una receta familiar de jabón centenaria y el conocimiento de su madre sobre remedios naturales y botánica, utilizándose a sí misma como sujeto de prueba, Manuela se encargó de tarea de formular un jabón para poner fin a sus décadas de alergias, erupciones cutáneas, infecciones de la piel y molestias.
Siempre fabricados con los mejores ingredientes activos naturales, orgánicos y más investigados, by valenti™ ORGANICS ofrece hoy una línea completa de lujosos productos para el cuidado de la piel, el baño y el cuerpo, formulados específicamente para pieles extremadamente sensibles, reactivas, con dermatitis y eczemas, que siguen los mismos principio y altos estándares de calidad por los que somos tan conocidos.It's always been about Lavender
Lavender has a very personal meaning for Valenti. It represents a deep connection with her ancestors, mostly with her mother.
It was her mother's favorite scent, one she missed from her homeland, Tuscany, and as an amateur botanist the one she knew very well. Growing up, Valenti saw lavender preset everywhere in her home and life, sometimes in the most subtle of ways.
It was present in the sachets her mother made and tucked in the closets, for freshness and aroma; the oil added to the cleaning bucket to deodorize and disinfect the home; lavender was the color her mom loved the most, the one that adorned Valenti's flower bouquet when she got married over 30 years ago; and the plant that sits atop her mother's tomb, which Valenti planted herself.
Formulating her cosmetic products based on Lavender, was Valenti's tribute to her mom and her family's roots.
