The secret to Italian beauty<\/strong> is latte di asina, donkey milk<\/strong>. Yep, you\u2019ve read it correctly: Donkey milk. \u201cIt nourishes, strengthens and stimulates<\/strong>,\u201d wrote Greek historian Herodotus<\/strong>, 5th century BC. The Ancient Romans loved it even more. Infamous beauty Cleopatra<\/strong>, and empresses Poppea and Messalina bathed in it to preserve their youth, perhaps taking a hint from Pliny the Elder\u2019s tome Natural History<\/a> where 1st century Roman philosopher wrote that the donkey milk \u201cmakes face wrinkles disappear, smooths the skin<\/strong> and maintains the skin whiteness.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Federica Zavaglia was captivated by antiquity\u2019s clever beauty regimes<\/strong> and mixed it up with a little bit of 21st century science<\/strong> and some nonna know how to create Terre dei Papi<\/a><\/strong>, an organic luxury beauty cream and treatment lin<\/strong>e based on the extraordinary power of 100% Italian Donkey Milk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI was researching a marketing project for University of Windsor\u2019s bio department and discovered that donkey milk is a supercharge for the immune system. It contains lactic acid, it\u2019s a natural antiseptic and it\u2019s the milk closest to mother\u2019s milk,\u201d Zavaglia tells us. And the rest is her story\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\nFrom nonni remedies to 21st century wellness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
