We at BIOLA NATURCOSMETICS Ltd. have been producing premium quality organic and natural skin care products for over 10 years. And when we say premium, we mean award-winning products that push the boundaries of organic cosmetics as far as possible to bring customers the highest possible quality products that embody our knowledge, experience and care wrapped in a beautiful, elegant design.

While you will find certified organic labels like on products with 10-20% organic ingredients, our certified premium quality assures over 95% organic ingredients in our organic skincare line, with over 70% for shampoos and shower gels. As a small company, we avoid mass manufacturing, and all our products are developed and produced by us in our small, family owned plant, giving a caring and hand-made touch to everything that leaves our workshop. That’s the Biola difference. Our own CEO, Dr. Viola Gyovai, a biologist in cosmetics for 28 years and Candidate of the Hungarian Academy of Science heads our research and development. The highest quality ingredients are locally sourced from Hungary, grown on organic and DEMETER® certified farms, with more exotic and rare ingredients shipped from similar farms worldwide. In striving for quality, we also greatly value human connection, and try to have the best possible relationship with our suppliers. Whenever possible, we visit the certified farms where our ingredients are produced, overseeing production and sharing our organic philosophy with our friends. From the moment the seed is planted into the ground to the moment you apply it to your skin, our ingredients are surrounded by the care and knowledge that are embodied in our final products.

Hungary Being the first and to this date only certified organic skincare products from Hungary, these creations, manufactured under the watchful eye of ISO9001:2008, have been prized by the Val Deal International Innovations and University of Texas at Austin joint Award in 2008 and the Hungarian Széchenyi Scientific Society and the Market for Excellent Hungarian Products joint award.

Deeply caring for our legacy as well, we do not only strive to reduce our footprint from ﬁeld to shelf, but actively take part in and fund tree-planting and environmental clean-up projects, as well as green and organic lifestyle education. The children of the local Waldorf school in our home town enjoy a free supply of our products, and the school's events and organic agriculture program is funded by us as well. Being truly organic, especially for Demeter®, means not only using organic cosmetic products, but living in a holistic way

The highest possible quality ingredients, prepared according to our exclusive and complex recipes are wrapped in beautiful, elegant, and, of course, environmentally friendly packaging, ready to grace the shelves of premium organic stores and beauty parlours, and eventually happy customers worldwide. Oﬀering both a professional beautician line with complete treatments and training and a personal home-use range as well, our product line gives home to more than 140 natural, organic and Demeter biodynamic products. The latter, as our crowning achievement, are products for those who not only wish to simply use organic products, but live the philosophy of Demeter® in as many ways as possible. As we hope to reach more and more consumers with one of the healthiest choices for their skin, we are also busy developing newer and newer recipes, so that everyone can ﬁnd the perfect combination of products for their unique skin care needs. We believe that living in harmony with nature and accepting its gifts can help us take care of ourselves and become as we are meant to be: Beautiful. Naturally.

Our development laboratory provides a regularly expanding product line for natural and organic beauty- and body care. The ingredients and active substances used for this product line are carefully selected based on herbal traditions and cutting edge microbiology to provide the best possible eﬀect without any unwanted possible allergic reactions due to personal sensitivity. However, as we are all unique in our skin as well, it is advisable to test all products on the inside of the wrist before further use. If any irritation, though highly unlikely, should develop, discontinue use. Furthermore, the natural ingredients should be checked for any known personal sensitivities, such as beeswax.

None of our products are tested on animals, both because we are strongly against it and also because there is not need to. The vast majority of our ingredients are of completely natural origin, and all are all well-known, time- and laboratory tested to be of the highest quality as used in the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry.

Over time, a minor colour alteration might occur in some of our products due to the high concentrations of natural ingredients and plant extracts.

We hope that you will ﬁnd the perfect products for yourself and enjoy the natural treasure that is Biola. Sincerely yours in the name of the development team of BIOLA NATURCOSMETICS Ltd.,

Dr. Viola Gyovai CEO, PhD Biologist Candidate of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences
