OUR HISTORY
From a Provencal house to a brand dedicated to organic donkey milk
FROM A PROVENCAL HOUSE TO A BRAND DEDICATED TO ORGANIC DONKEY MILK The story of Bell’Ânesse Cosmétique is a natural extension of Label Provence Nature, a company specializing in the manufacturing and distribution of natural soaps and cosmetics. Over the years, the brand has honed its expertise, developed its own production facilities, and defined its identity around a truly exceptional ingredient: organic donkey milk.
A natural evolution, driven by a commitment to quality, deep roots in Provence, and a desire to create a strong, distinctive brand.
As owners of the Savonnerie des Alpes, we control every stage of production: formulation, manufacturing and rigorous selection of raw materials. Du savon au lait d’ânesse bio à l’huile d’olive, notre savoir-faire s’appuie sur des méthodes traditionnelles.
THE ORIGINS: PROVENCE NATURE LABEL
Expertise in natural soaps and cosmetics
Founded in 2017, Label Provence Nature specialises in traditional soaps enriched with olive oil, organic shea butter and organic donkey milk.
Based in Provence, the company is gradually building up a network of professionals: stores, concept stores, hotels, institutes and specialized distributors.
Its ambition is to offer authentic, natural products with high perceived value.
AN ECOSYSTEM OF EXCELLENCE
Industrial mastery and exceptional ingredients.
Our brand’s development is built upon a solid and cohesive ecosystem, combining integrated production capabilities with rigorous sourcing.
As owners of the Savonnerie des Alpes in Provence, we oversee our own manufacturing of custom soaps, as well as soaps enriched with organic olive oil, organic shea butter, and organic donkey milk. This vertical integration guarantees consistent quality and a capacity for innovation.
For the production of authentic Marseille soap, we partner with the Savonnerie Fer à Cheval, a Marseille-based manufacturer founded in 1856, which continues the traditional cauldron saponification method.
Our organic donkey milk is sourced from the Asinerie de France, a certified organic farm in the Pyrenees dedicated to animal welfare.
Huile d’olive bio, parfums de Grasse, matières premières sélectionnées avec exigence : chaque choix reflète une volonté constante de qualité et d’authenticité.
