HERBAL LIQUEURS
Ibiza is overgrown with many aromatic herbs. You can easily find rosemary and thyme here, as well as lavender. These are the herbs that the herbal liqueur called “Hierbas de Ibiza” is made of, which means “Ibiza Herbs” in Spanish. The liqueur is being drunk after heavy meals since it helps with digestion. At the fair, you can try and buy original herbal liqueurs.
STYLE “ADLIB”
The origins of Adlib fashion date back to the early 70s with the coming of the hippie movement. It is a combination of the hippie trend with traditional costumes from Ibiza. Clothes are made mainly of natural fabrics in which white has been on the leading edge. The collection contains beautiful, long, airy dresses, floral accessories, crocheted swimsuits and beautiful linen blouses. Every year, on the island, quite an event called the Adlib fashion show takes place.
CRAFTS
We can find many original articles at the hippie market. Most of them are handmade, artistic items. We can also find here beautiful jewellery with motifs typical of the Hippy culture. Apart from jewellery, at the fair, we will find leather products, hand-embroidered clothes, shoes, bags and handbags and many other interesting products. Moreover, fans of interior decoration will find something for themselves. Beautifully scented candles, Moroccan lamps and colourful fabrics will decorate any interior.
SEA SALT
Sea salt contains around 60 minerals and is a rich source of electrolytes. Sea salt is produced by evaporating seawater in special tanks. It is worth buying a box of salt as a souvenir. It is saltier than rock salt. You can choose salt with the addition of Ibiza herbs. Such a mixture is a great addition to many dishes, especially fish. In the south of the Island, there is the Salinas National Park, where very good quality sea salt is obtained. During the trip around the island, it is possible to visit the park, there are many salt mountains and salt lakes with a red and white landscape.
NATURAL COSMETICS
Natural cosmetics are the plenitude and goodness of the island captured in a small jar. At the hippie fair, you can buy cosmetics using the best ingredients that are offered by nature, such as wildflowers and aromatic herbs. Plants are picked by hand and combined into innovative and patented products to satisfy even the most demanding customers. Cosmetics based on aloe vera stand out in particular, as they have a soothing effect.
