Bacio di Dea Lip Butter by Bottega di Athena

The artisans of Bottega di Athena recreate the traditional grandmother's soap, combining modern techniques with the timeless and essential principles of tradition to produce a unique product that still retains naturalness and simplicity.

The workshop recalls a place where, in the past, people could meet and converse in a familiar way; that place called a putia which has now disappeared and is almost forgotten.

Bottega di Athena uses the cold process method to make the soap, which involves working at temperatures below 50 degrees Celsius, preserving the oil's composition. This results in a soap that is particularly soft, soothing, hydrating, and rich in glycerine, a natural substance that gently cleanses the skin.

The soap bar, crafted with the same passion as grandmothers of old and carefully cut by the artisan's simple hands, becomes a piece of our tradition, evoking those simple past gestures from which we can never cease to draw inspiration.
