THE HISTORY
Mastiha, also known as “the tears of Chios,” is a rare, aromatic resin that has been treasured for over 2,500 years for its unique healing and antioxidant properties. Harvested exclusively from the mastic trees that only grow on the Greek island of Chios, this precious ingredient has been used since ancient times for beauty, medicine and culinary traditions. The trees of Chios produce the purest and most potent form of Mastiha in the world, thanks to the island’s unique climate, mineral-rich soil and time-honoured harvesting methods.
Lira Clinical is proud to source only authentic Chios Mastiha, ensuring every product infused with this ingredient delivers unmatched purity, efficacy and luxury. Lira Clinical even goes a step further by sponsoring Mastiha trees on the island, directly supporting local farmers and preserving their traditional, sustainable harvesting practices for generations to come.
