HERBATINT, the main brand of Antica Erboristeria, was founded in 1970 following a brilliant intuition of its founder, the herbalist Michele Albergo, who focused his research on a colouring formula that could combine product efficacy with hair and skin health. Thanks to his outstanding knowledge of medicinal herbs, starting from formulations based on herbal extracts, he progressively reduced the percentage of chemical ingredients, including hydrogen peroxide.
