The secret behind BIODROGA Organic Institute’s botanical brilliance

At BIODROGA, we embrace the healing wisdom of plants. Our 5-Fold Phyto Complex lies at the heart of this philosophy—a synergistic blend of five time-honoured herbs: nettle, chamomile, lady’s mantle, rose, and hyssop. Together, these plants form a powerful skincare complex designed to hydrate, soothe, rebalance, and renew the skin.

Whether your skin is sensitive, tired, or seeking harmony, this herbal complex meets it with care. It’s a cornerstone of our Phyto Therapy ‘Take A Breath’ Oil Essence, but its benefits extend across a whole family of products in the BIODROGA Organic Institute line.

What is the 5-Fold Phyto Complex?

The 5-Fold Phyto Complex brings together five plant extracts, each selected for their gentle yet clinically effective properties:

• Nettle energises and revitalises tired, dull complexions thanks to its vitamin-rich profile.

• Chamomile calms sensitivity and redness, rich in alpha-bisabolol, a known anti-inflammatory source.

• Lady’s Mantle refines skin texture and soothes irritation with its astringent and antioxidant qualities.

• Rose hydrates and strengthens the skin barrier while offering a gentle calming effect.

• Hyssop supports elasticity and provides natural detoxifying action—ideal for rebalancing troubled skin.

The result? A versatile plant-based complex that improves skin resilience, moisture retention, and overall vitality.
