Innovation
Our company, in cooperation with the Veterinary School of Aristotlean University of Greece, developed an unique and innovative range of cosmetics enriched with donkey milk. Donkey milk, an ingredient well known since 5,000 BC, was used in ancient Greece by Hippocrates for wound healing and skin regeneration.
In Egyptian antiquity, donkey milk was used for both alimentary and cosmetic purposes; it was broadly used for both internal and external inflammation, as well as an nutritious drink for children and infants.
In Ancient Rome, it was used as a drink for the aristocracy. Women, fully aware of its beauty enhancing properties, used it in order to retain youth. It is said that Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt , took baths in donkey milk to preserve the beauty and youth of her skin.
Our suppliers are organic certified local farms that carry out microbiological and physicochemical controls on each batch in order to ensure the excellent quality of the milk.
As consumers become more aware of product ingredients and their potential risks we want to ensure that our products offer cleaner and safer formulation as possible.
Sostar’s mission is to create products with excellent sensory qualities at every level superb textures, technological advanced formulas and soothing aromas that promote everyday wellbeing.
