Biancamore: buffalo milk is more than just mozzarella

Experience the effect of buffalo milk for yourself with Biancamore sustainable cosmetics from Campania

Did you know that buffalo milk is not only a great base ingredient for mozzarella, but also an amazing elixir for the skin? It contains a number of beneficial substances and especially lactobionic acid, which has moisturising, nourishing and soothing properties and is great for dry or dehydrated skin of any age.

Women all over the world have used different types of milk for bathing and skin care since time immemorial. When Daniela Senatore was pregnant with her first child and looking for a natural remedy to help soothe her irritated skin, she, like generations before her, tried immersing herself in lukewarm water mixed with milk. A native of Campania, she turned to buffalo milk, which is widely used in the southern Italian region to make mozzarella. The desired relief arrived and inspired Daniela and her brother to create the Biancamore line of sustainable cosmetics.

The basic ingredient of Biancamore cosmetics is fresh, nutritious buffalo milk, which comes from the farm of the Barlotti family, one of the oldest buffalo farms in Campania, whose mozzarella is also found in our range. The Barlotti family have been raising buffalo for over 100 years sustainably and with respect for animals and people in a clean, uncontaminated area within sight of the ancient temples of Paestum. Immediately after milking, the milk is mixed with other natural local ingredients, such as pomegranate juice (a natural antioxidant rich in punicic acid), extra virgin olive oil (with a nourishing and protective effect) or oats (with a soothing effect), which are not only effective but also gentle on the skin and nature, reducing environmental impact and respecting local traditions.

Biancamore products are paraben-free and leave skin naturally hydrated, soft and radiant, and are more than just cosmetics. They are an invitation to slow down, to breathe, to feel, to take care of yourself with small daily gestures, to pamper yourself with simple and natural things like milk, because there is true beauty in simplicity.
