Ahava Active Deadsea Minerals, Jerusalem
Ahava, meaning "love" in Hebrew, is a renowned company specializing in therapeutic skin-care products sourced from the Dead Sea, known as Yam Hamelah, or the Salt Sea. Located an hour's drive south of Jerusalem, the Dead Sea is the lowest point on Earth, sitting at 1,388 feet below sea level. With a salt concentration over eight times greater than the ocean, it has been revered as a health retreat since the time of King David, owing to its abundant mineral content in water, salt, and mud.
While numerous companies produce cosmetics using Dead Sea salt and mud, Ahava stands out as a pioneer in this field, having introduced Dead Sea-based cosmetics over two decades ago. With a commitment to maintaining high quality, Ahava offers a diverse range of products for both men and women, targeting rejuvenation, cleansing, and detoxification. Their product line includes mineral botanic soaps, mudpacks, hypoallergenic formulations, sun care creams, and various other skincare concoctions designed to cleanse the skin and purify pores, often characterized by their distinctive sulphurous aroma.
