The rise of organic cosmetics in Spain
In June 2018, a fantastic report was published in #mujerhoy magazine about organic cosmetics. They talked about the "Top 10 organic brands made in Spain," and there we were, among the top 10 Spanish brands.
Natural cosmetics are increasingly in demand by consumers; they are cosmetics made with ingredients of natural origin and free of chemicals and substances harmful to health .
When we talk about organic cosmetics , we are referring to natural cosmetics, but in this case, a percentage of the ingredients used to make the products come from organic farming, where NO pesticides or biocides are used in the cultivation process.
The result is cosmetics free of chemical residues and of great quality and effectiveness.
Main Ingredients of Natural Cosmetics
Natural cosmetics stand out for their exclusive use of ingredients of natural origin, but what does this mean? Well, when we talk about natural ingredients, we're referring to derivatives of plants, fruits, seeds, roots, flowers, leaves, resins, fruits, etc. Let's give some examples to make it easier to understand. For example, we have:
- Vegetable oils obtained from fruits, such as olive oil, almond oil , or argan oil
- Vegetable butters , which are obtained from seeds such as cocoa butter or shea butter
- Essential oils , which are obtained from flowers and aromatic plants, such as lavender, rose, rosemary, sage essential oil, etc.
- Hydrolates or floral waters , which are obtained from the extraction process of essential oils
- Aloe vera juice , which is obtained from the plant of the same name
- Extracts, which are obtained from the maceration of different plants in oil, alcohol or vegetable glycerin, are highly valued and used in natural cosmetics due to their high concentration of active ingredients.
