How “natural” are your products? |
|
All our products are at least 99% natural. We use the finest ingredients from botanical and fruit extracts, vitamins and essential oils.
We do not use Paraben's, however we need to preserve in some form or another. Where possible we use natural preservative such as vitamin E, tea tree and essential oils.
Benzyl alcohol, Phenoxyethanol, Potassium sorbate, a mild preservative permitted by the Organic Standard Soil Association, is one of the most natural preservative systems available and is used by many naturally focused, cosmeceuticals companies world-wide. It offers a broad, balanced spectrum of effect against bacteria, yeasts and mould fungi. It will only work in cosmetic product with a skin-friendly PH value up to 5.5.
A preservative has to be added to our creams otherwise they would be mouldy within 5-6 weeks.
