Dual Beauty Lines: How BABOR and Art of Care Complement Each Other in the Angelo SPA
Finding skincare that truly fits your needs can be challenging—especially on holiday, when you want visible results without sacrificing relaxation. At the Angelo SPA in the family-run Hotel Angelo Engel in Ortisei, a thoughtful Dual Beauty Lines approach brings the best of both worlds together: BABOR and Art of Care. This guide explains why these two lines sit side by side, how they differ, how they work together, and how to choose the right treatment for you.
The Angelo SPA philosophy: two lines, one goal—your well-being
The Angelo SPA is a cozy retreat designed for deep relaxation and visible care. Treatments range from soothing massages, revitalizing scrubs, and nourishing wraps to face and body therapies, all enveloped in delightful fragrances. Here, the team purposefully pairs two complementary product lines:
- BABOR: professional, research-driven skincare "Made in Germany" (pioneering professional beauty since 1956) with precision formulas.
- Art of Care: exclusive natural cosmetics from South Tyrol, reflecting the region’s nature-first sensibility.
This Dual Beauty Lines approach helps tailor each session to your preferences—whether you favor advanced, performance-focused formulas, a naturally inspired ritual, or a blend of both. Before or after your treatment, enjoy the hotel’s year-round heated pools and spa facilities (including saunas), set in the heart of Val Gardena’s Dolomites.
Tip for planners: You can browse the SPA brochure to find your ideal treatment or speak directly with the wellness team for professional advice.
Meet BABOR: precision, performance, and professional care
What is BABOR?
BABOR is a pioneer of professional beauty care, “Made in Germany” and setting standards in skincare research since 1956. Its precision formulas leverage innovative active ingredients to deliver high-performance results across facial and body treatments.
Where BABOR shines
- Targeted concerns: Ideal for guests seeking visible improvements such as smoother, firmer, or more refined-looking skin.
- Advanced techniques: The Angelo SPA menu includes options enhanced by the Babor SkinFirmor device—a radiofrequency add-on that warms the skin’s deeper layers to stimulate regeneration by promoting collagen and elastin production.
- Professional consistency: BABOR supports structured, goal-oriented treatments that appeal to results-focused guests.
Babor SkinFirmor device add-ons (only bookable as part of a facial treatment)
- One wrinkle | 15,00€
- Mouth | 30,00€
- Eyes | 40,00€
- Mouth & Eyes | 60,00€
What to expect conceptually: radiofrequency gently heats deeper tissue by oscillating molecules—an approach widely used in professional aesthetics to encourage skin regeneration.
Meet Art of Care: South Tyrolean natural cosmetics, rooted in place
Local by design
Art of Care brings the spirit of South Tyrol into the treatment room with exclusive natural cosmetics. Its inclusion reflects Hotel Angelo Engel’s broader ethos of regional authenticity—from sourcing ingredients like fresh South Tyrolean milk and apples to serving complimentary Val Gardena tap water from the Cunfin springs at every table. Choosing Art of Care means choosing a sense of place and nature-forward textures.
Where natural care excels
- Gentle sensoriality: Ideal for guests who prefer a naturally oriented touch and soothing rituals.
- Connection to the region: Natural cosmetics harmonize with the hotel’s alpine ambiance and wellness mindset.
- Holistic unwind: Complements massages, scrubs, and wraps when your goal is “switch off and restore.”
How BABOR and Art of Care work together
Think of the Dual Beauty Lines approach as a flexible toolkit for your skin and your mood:
- Personalization by preference: Prefer a science-forward facial? Choose BABOR. Craving a nature-inspired ritual? Choose Art of Care. You can enjoy both in a single spa day by selecting, for example, a results-focused BABOR facial and an Art of Care body wrap.
- Seasonal and activity-based choices: After a hike or ski day, an Art of Care massage or wrap can soothe and restore. Closer to an event or when you want extra radiance, BABOR facials and device-supported add-ons can help you focus on targeted concerns.
- Ritual + results: Combine high-performance care for the face with naturally sensorial care for the body to feel both refreshed and rebalanced.

Practical tips to choose your ideal treatment
Define your priority.
- For visible, targeted results (e.g., smoother, firmer look), start with a BABOR facial; consider the SkinFirmor add-on for focused areas.
- For natural sensorial care and deep relaxation, opt for Art of Care body treatments like scrubs and wraps, or a soothing massage.
Pair face and body for balance.
- Example day: BABOR facial (with or without SkinFirmor) plus an Art of Care massage. You’ll leave refreshed and re-centered—face refined, body restored.
Time it right.
- Morning or midday facials can set your glow for the day.
- Late-afternoon massages help you wind down before dinner in the hotel’s restaurant or Tyrolean Stube.
Make the most of the facilities.
- Arrive early to enjoy the year-round heated pools and saunas. A warm soak can relax muscles and prime skin for treatment.
Hydrate and nourish.
- Sip the hotel’s fresh Val Gardena tap water from the Cunfin springs, available complimentary at every table. Post-treatment, choose the hotel’s regional, seasonal cuisine to round out your wellness day.
Align with your activities.
- After guided hikes or ski days offered through Hotel Angelo Engel, a calming Art of Care ritual soothes body and mind. Before a special dinner, a BABOR facial refreshes your complexion.
Ask the experts.
- Use the SPA brochure to shortlist favorites, then consult the wellness staff for a plan tailored to your skin and schedule.
Beyond the treatment room: a setting made for wellness
Hotel Angelo Engel blends true South Tyrolean hospitality with a central yet tranquil location in Ortisei—close to the pedestrian area and the Dolomiti Superski lifts. The large garden and year-round heated swimming pool add space to breathe between treatments.
If you’re planning a car-free wellness escape, every guest receives a Südtirol MobilCard for free use of public buses and trains throughout South Tyrol during the stay. In summer, enjoy free guided hikes and free mountain-bike rental with discounted e-bike tours; in winter, tap into guided snowshoe hikes and a full suite of spa facilities.
