Ahava Dead Sea Laboratories Overview
Ahava Dead Sea Laboratories is a cosmetics company from the Dead Sea region. The company employs a scientific approach in its environmentally conscious research activities to develop a series of face and body skincare products, renowned internationally for their efficacy. Ahava harvests and formulates the rich natural resources of the Dead Sea region in strict compliance with recognized international standards. Osmoter is its signature blend of potent minerals sourced directly from the Dead Sea and AHAVA's trademark since 1989. It is created through natural solar evaporation of the Dead Sea water and contains uniquely balanced levels of minerals essential to human skin, including Magnesium, Sodium, Potassium, and Calcium. This "moisture magnet" acts as an osmotic pump that brings moisture from the deep layers of skin up to the surface and activates your skin from within. Osmoter is the key ingredient in all AHAVA products.

China's Fosun International completes Ahava acquisition despite dead sea minerals concerns
Ahava, an Israeli cosmetics brand, has signed an agreement to be acquired by Fosun, a Chinese company. The acquisition is seen as a move to introduce Ahava to the Chinese market. Ahava has faced pressure from the global boycott, divestment, and sanctions movement due to its West Bank based plant. The company denies yielding to the pressure, but speculation suggests that the boycott may have influenced its willingness to be acquired. Ahavas products have been accused of being mislabeled as being made in Israel and being among the biggest illegal exports to Europe. The company has yet to respond to requests for comment.

Fosun International has been acquiring several overseas companies and this acquisition could potentially help Ahava break into the Chinese cosmetics markets.
