Herbs

Naturally the best botany has to offer.

Our herbs are of the highest quality and, in some cases, are already being grown by farmers using EM technology. Its composition is well-considered and was developed with the well-known herbal medicine expert and author of herbology books Miriam Wiegele. The herbs used in bioemsan natural cosmetics are fermented by Multikraft with the help of EM technology and therefore their effect on the skin (e.g. in EM moisturiser, EM cleansing milk, EM tonic or in EM salt soap) is strengthened.

bioemsan natural cosmetics include the following herbs:
