Donkey Milk Soap 

For those of you who have never heard of donkey milk, you can understand your doubts about it. The donkey is certainly not the cutest animal on earth (the one in Winnie the Pooh may be the cutest), but if you read the British Telegraph article, you definitely want to try it. It does not contain any fragrance and has no artificial smell at all. Just wet your face with water, take a little soap, add a little water, and it will foam. Donkey milk is a gift from nature. It contains the enzyme lysozyme, which has antibacterial properties and can prevent intestinal infections. Donkey milk is rich in protein needed by the skin, which is why Cleopatra uses it for bathing.

Essential Oils

Cyprus is the oldest perfume producer in the world. The various essential oils produced in Cyprus are exported to Europe, Russia and other countries in large quantities. Rose essential oil is in short supply. Vanilla products such as vanilla tea are exported all over the world. Because of its unique and abundant sunshine, its vanilla essential oil products are all organic.
