Skin care is non-negotiable these days. With the many factors in the environment, the weather, and even lifestyle, our skin is susceptible to dryness and irritation from many harmful chemicals in the atmospere.
Pili Beauty is leading the way in promoting the natural and proudly homegrown skin care wonders brought by the pili tree.
Made from oil extracted from the fruits and resin of the pili tree, founder and director of Elemie Naturals Rosalina Tan took Bicolandia’s representative product and elevated it from standard pasalubong fare to a line of locally-made luxe personal and skin care products.
In a research by the University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB) – Biotech and the Department of Science and Technology (DOST), the pili oil in Pili Beauty products are comparable ingredients found in international luxury brands.
In fact, when compared with the highly popular (and more expensive) argan oil, pili oil was proven to contain more skin conditioning agents and natural germicidal properties.
This means using Pili Beauty products, not only keeps skin moist for a longer period of time. It’s also doubly effective in preventing UV-induced free radical damage, and better in increasing skin’s elasticity.
“Pili Beauty’s competitive edge really comes from Bicolandia’s beloved pili,” says Rose. “All natural, all organic, all powerful pili.”
But, the real gift of Pili Beauty is its dedication to uplift the conditions of the farmers and farm laborers supported by the pili industry by offering them a new source of income.
“It’s kind of like, we’re each other’s Monita,” jokes Rose “The farmers gift us with the best pili for our products, and we give the next generation of pili farmers the opportunity to continue their parent’s legacy.”
Elemie Naturals believes in promoting premium quality Philippine beauty and wellness products that are derived straight from nature. Elemie Naturals are the makers of Pili Beauty. Pili Beauty products are available at Rustan’s branches, SM Kultura, ECHOstore, G Stuff, Duty Free, and online at BeautyMNL and Calyxta.
