Who We Are

Welcome to Botaneca, where the pursuit of beauty harmonizes with the principles of science, nature, and undeniable efficacy. We are more than just a skincare brand – we are the architects of a transformative journey that celebrates authenticity, sustainability, and the undeniable power of skincare that works.

Origins of the Name

The name Botaneca originates from our deep-rooted belief in the synergy between nature and science. It is a fusion of two words: botanical and the Latin word for apothecary – apotheca. This blend encapsulates our commitment to harnessing the botanical treasures of the earth while incorporating the wisdom of traditional apothecaries. Inspired by their expertise, we craft skincare products that harness botanical ingredients and scientific innovation for effective and nurturing results.

Our Philosophy

At Botaneca, we believe that beauty is a personal journey, unique to each individual. Our philosophy is rooted in the idea that skincare should not only be effective but also a sensorial experience that connects you to the world of nature and cutting-edge science.

A Symphony of Ingredients

Our formulations are a symphony of carefully selected ingredients, seamlessly blending the best of nature and science. We marry the timeless benefits of botanical wonders with the innovation of eco-safe synthetic elements, ensuring that every product not only nurtures but also delivers visible results.

Sustainability at Heart

We recognize our responsibility to the environment, and our commitment to sustainability echoes in every aspect of our brand. From eco-friendly packaging to responsible sourcing practices, we strive to minimize our ecological footprint while providing you with skincare solutions that align with your values.

Skincare That Works

We understand that at the core of your beauty routine is the desire for effective results. Our products are crafted with precision, backed by scientific research, and designed to make a tangible difference in the health and appearance of your skin. Because for us, what matters most is skincare that works.

Meet The Founder

Hi! I'm Tiziana, founder and head formulator at Botaneca. With over 23 years of experience as a registered nurse, my purpose has always been caring for others. My exploration of natural skincare began as a hobby, handcrafting cold-processed soaps. This eventually blossomed into a passion for formulating safe, effective skincare solutions. 

Born in Italy, I was raised in Toronto, Canada. I now call Bradford, Ontario home—and the heart of Botaneca. My family instilled in me a deep respect for handcrafted goods and natural ingredients. I bring this appreciation for traditional craftsmanship and simple pleasures to my work formulating premium skincare.

I am continuously expanding my knowledge through an advanced diploma in personal care formulation. As a member of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists, the International Federation of the Societies of Cosmetic Chemists and Handcrafted Bath & Body Guild, I stay attuned to the latest innovations while upholding the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.

I invite you to join me in redefining beauty and self-care. At Botaneca, we blend my expertise as a healthcare professional with a love of nature and passion for skincare formulation. The result is a collection of products as unique and transformative as you are.

Thank you for being an integral part of the Botaneca journey. Here's to discovering your radiance, on your own terms.

Warmly,
