Lavido is a natural, therapeutic skin and body care line specializing in herbal plant chemistry with clinically proven results.

THE GARDENS
With a heritage rooted and inspired by nature, we bring a deep gardening ethic to our formulation process. We grow many of our own ingredients in our Botanical Sanctuary in Israel that is also a renowned Education Center. People from all over the world come to learn more about the healing and aromatic properties of plants and herbs. The ingredients we don’t grow in our garden are ethically and sustainably sourced around the world where they grow abundantly, using less of Earth’s precious resources.OUR EXPERTISE
