Another group of popular Czech souvenirs is toiletries made by the company Manufaktura, which in the 1990's successfully produced fresh glycerin soap and since then extended its range to dozens of high quality cosmetic items. Nonetheless, it has remained true to Czech traditions and the production of its cosmetic series uses natural ingredients such as wine from Moravia, spring salt from Karlovy Vary, medicinal herbs or even beer.

In addition, Manufaktura was the first Czech company to be awarded the internationally recognized no-animal-testing certificate-HCS. Good quality and authentic toiletries are also offered by other companies of Czech origin. To name just a few - there is the company Botanicus, focusing on a close tie with herb producers; the luxury brand of Chateau Mcely manufactured especially for the five star chateau hotel not far from Prague; the Czech cosmetics under the trade name of Ryor available in all cosmetic shops and drugstores.
