It begins with Thomas Haase, the creator of Lavera natural cosmetics, who as a child suffered from neurodermatitis. Conventional creams brought no relief, so from an early age he took an active interest in ingredients and alternative skin care options. As a student he opened a health food shop and cultivated plants and produced herbal extracts and developed his first formulations. After working ten years on developing cosmetics, Thomas started Lavera. A small family concern on a farm near Hanover, Lavera has developed into a company employing over 40 people at its own premises in the beautiful Deister hills region near Hanover, Germany. A genuine concern for nature and an openness to new ideas and findings are the philosophy behind Lavera natural cosmetics. This is proven by the innovative products such as decorative cosmetics, the Lavera refill system, and by the products being rated as 'Recommended' over 80 times by the critical German consumer magazine OKO TEST.
