A face toner is one of the best-known skincare products, yet its role is not always clear. Should you use it before or after serum? Does it need to be rinsed off? And is it really necessary?

The salt pan: salt production
The first example of a sustainable industry
The salt pans are one of the most iconic and evocative landscapes of Sicily, known for their natural beauty, intense colors, and the ancient tradition of salt production.
The panorama is dominated by shallow water basins, embankments, canals, and historic windmills.
Salt extraction is still active and productive today, producing a product of the highest quality. “Trapani Sea Salt” is a PGI product, Protected Geographical Indication, appreciated for its integral and artisanal qualities.
Target species: fauna & flora
The coastal environment is a complex system, enriched by the presence of the basins, and is a transition zone between land and sea where every natural element experiences extreme conditions with large daily and seasonal variations.
Food webs overlap and are interconnected between sea and land.
Here, “plasticity” and “resilience” are essential for survival. Due to its great seasonal ecological variability and its geographical position, it is an ideal ecotone for many species, from bacteria to higher vertebrates, with particular attention to both wintering and nesting birdlife.
