Cretan Olive Oil Spa
The business was founded in 1985 by brothers Ioannis and Michael Kymionis. Their grandmother used natural ingredients such as dittany, aloe, snail saliva, beeswax, calendula, and olive oil to create a cream ideal for treating psoriasis and eczema. Her recipes were passed down to the younger generation, who lovingly and passionately created the CRETAN OLIVE OIL SPA product line. Their products are free from harmful ingredients such as parabens, oil derivatives, petroleum derivatives, petrolatum, paraffin oil, and animal ingredients, making them suitable for all skin types.
