ITALIAN BRAND OF SKIN-CARE AND MAKE-UP

Pascal Firenze from Italy – Unique Range of Make-up with Skin-care Ingredients

Mr Pascal Frese is the founder of Pascal Firenze, an Italian range of cosmetics from Italy. At a very young age, he loved mixing colors and would try to get hold of any cosmetics he could find to do his own mixing.

In the 1973 National Make-up Competition, he emerged as a champion. While working as a beautician in 1977, he created his own line of cosmetics that he produced and sold in Italy. A year later, he took a step further to realize his dream by establishing Cosmesi International Pascal Firenze, now located in Vinci; the hometown of Leonardo da Vinci, the genius of science whom he very much admires and respects.

The brand is distributed to various countries like Spain, Brazil, Greece and Singapore.

The main aim of the company has always been to provide innovative and high-quality products. In the last 27 years, Pascal has created a wide range of cosmetics that includes make-up and skin-care products, and more recently has produced a very specialized face and body treatment machine that incorporates also ‘ultrasound’ technology.

His range of make-up products is not simply colors, but most of which contains ingredients that would bring about some benefits to the skin. Results will be seen after a period of prolonged use, especially the unique Lifting Color and Magic Loose Powder.

Mr Pascal Frese has within him, a burning passion in creating beauty in everyone. He pays special attention in the formulation of the products, organizes specialized courses on corrective and personalized make-up.

In February 2005, Pascal was the main sponsor for the Miss Padania held in the Mazda Palace, providing make-up artists for the 80 participants. Mr Pascal Frese was invited to demonstrate make-up in the grand beauty fair, Cosmoprof Asia 2005 in Hongkong and has appeared on the Italian TV on a few occasions.

Essenza di Nicla Ottanelli - Italian Skin Care Products from Natural Ingredients

My decision to venture the field of natural cosmetics was not prospected to me by one or another company rather it is the hard earned result of 20 years of working experience in the field of high quality perfumery together with the knowledge in essential oils acquired through courses taken in Italy and in other countries and through a growing rebellion against impositions laid down by the mass media dictates of consumer products.

As a young girl I dreamed of one day creating my very own beauty line .”Essenza “came into being in 1999 after I met a very specialized person in this field, with a degree in chemistry and the sensitivity in understanding exactly what I was searching for. Together we “founded” our research laboratory for natural cosmetics ”Essenza” and thus the creation of my beauty line.

My intent was to satisfy the demands of the majority of my clients including myself in the quest for products with certain specific characteristics.

I wanted a line of products that would give immediate results even after the first application –so I concentrated my studies on the quality and choice of active ingredients.

In our technologically advanced laboratory “Essenza” cosmetics are formulated in accordance to the dictates of the artisan concept and the know-how of an expert pool of professionals striving to ever improve the quality of natural cosmetic products.

The contents of our products are preferably natural substances and mostly of vegetable origin, very carefully selected and NOT tested on animals. In this way we proceed directly toward evaluating user satisfaction, in appeal, efficacy, and tolerability.

The equipment and the working cycle, which is an important aspect in the production of my products, are especially designed to give best results in maintaining the active substances.

For example our vacuum thermo-emulsioner can contain only small quantities, it is primary in the production sequence, and differs greatly from other companies who emphasize on large quantities, to keep costs low thus jeopardizing quality. Our final outcome is of course a small quantity production but of pure unaltered components since they are prepared with low temperatures that maintain all the active properties and benefits of the original elements. Results are visible from the first application.

Yet another important point lies in the concentration of our range –few but efficacious products with no need to fill the bathroom shelves with too many bottles for which we often forget their use.

The “essenza“ line respects nature and is geared toward planet conservation, only the container and no unnecessary recycled outer packages, thus avoiding more waste in our small share in ecology equilibrium..

My wish:

To become your beauty counsellor

1. Motivated by my creation
2. Striving for constant improvement

Naturally born, essential in its components, essential in its form.
