Founder's Story
I am Silvia Favero, the creator of Skin Real Food, which was born out of a personal need. After many years of struggling with health issues and receiving no answers from traditional medicine, I began to study and research how to heal on my own, and years later, I succeeded. This journey also involved understanding what I was putting on my skin, as I realized that everything I applied was being absorbed directly into my bloodstream and into my organs.
As human beings, we are intrinsically linked to nature, and our cells respond to its natural essence. Thus, we should endeavor to stay connected to it instead of drifting apart.
Ultimately, what makes us sick can be reduced to two main issues: lack of nutrients and an excess of toxins.
In today’s world, achieving a completely pure state, where we incorporate all nutrients in every meal and live free from toxins, feels completely out of our control. So, how do we take control of our health? The answer is pretty simple: understand the ingredients we are consuming to make informed decisions.
Regarding cosmetic products, any healing plant that comes directly from nature with minimal human intervention is beneficial. Our bodies recognize these products and absorb their nutrients. Conversely, anything that does not come directly from nature or is heavily processed should prompt us to scrutinize its ingredients. While some synthetic ingredients may be non-toxic, I prefer products with recognizable and pronounceable ingredients—those I would feel confident using on my skin.
I created my products for personal use because I couldn’t find what I needed:
First, ingredients sourced directly from plants with minimal human intervention, preserving their properties as if freshly cut—no added water, heat, preservatives, or anything strange. Just the plants.
Second, I wanted a product that could remain stable in my bathroom for a couple of months without oxidizing or losing its properties, eliminating the need to cut or mix ingredients at the time of use—practicality was essential.
Third, I aimed to address all my skin’s needs with just a couple of products and no more.
That’s why, in The Real Oil, I use cold-pressed plant oils—squeezed directly from the plants, seeds, or fruits without heat or solvents—and infuse them with plants and tree resin. With The Real Oil, I repaired my dry skin, which had rosacea and acne. I also helped repair my daughter’s oily skin and assisted a friend with psoriasis, among others. This oil is truly wonderful.
With Dragon Serum, I incorporate all the cold-pressed infused oils along with other plants and resins, effectively addressing the oxidation of my skin cells using the most potent antioxidants in the world—6000 times more powerful than vitamin C and 550 times more than vitamin E. With this serum, I achieved a more even texture and reduced my wrinkles.
With Sea Moss Serum, I am assured that I am providing my skin with 92 of the 102 minerals it needs. In addition to the cold-pressed infused oils, I include other super-nutritive and antioxidant-rich plants, along with spectacular pearl powder, rich in nutrients. It gives me a beautiful glow.
I am truly in love with my products, and I know you will love them too.
I hope you start giving your SKIN REAL FOOD.
