What is Babor known about?
Babor is the main brand of the German Babor Beauty Group, a cosmetics company from Aachen. The history begins with chemist Michael Babor, who in 1955 received a patent for HY-ÖL, a water-in-oil emulsion promoted as a "water-friendly oil". A year later he founded the company Dr. Babor GmbH in Cologne.
