What are organic & natural cosmetics ?
Organic cosmetics are cosmetics made with natural ingredients from organic agriculture. Natural cosmetics are cosmetics made with non-organic natural ingredients.
Organic and natural ingredients are safer than chemical products, or petroleum derivatives such as propylene glycol or mineral oil & petrolatum, which are often found in conventional cosmetics (see www.safecosmetics.org ). Natural and organic ingredients work in harmony with your body, enhancing natural healing and regenerative abilities.
Organic and natural cosmetics must:- be 100% chemical free
- contain safe ingredients
- be cruelty free - no animal testing
- contain no animal components
- carry a label of ingredients and/or an internationally-recognised quality certification
