Why Certified Organic Skincare Products

There is a global trend towards organic products as people become more educated about the health risks associated with exposure to non-organic products and foods containing harmful toxins and carcinogens. It is clear that more and more people are becoming aware of the benefits of using skin care organic products and are choosing to adopt a healthier and safer lifestyle.
Due to this trend, more brands are aligning their skin care products and marketing towards the natural and organic space, so it’s important to know the difference and what sets Certified Organic and in turn, Organic Potions apart.

The Truth Behind Natural and Organic

Products simply labeled ‘Natural or Organic’ come with no guarantees unless they are certified by an independent body, because using and marketing these terms is unregulated. Many consumers wrongly assume these ‘Natural and Organic’ products contain ingredients that are minimally processed and that they don’t contain toxic chemicals or artificial fragrances. Yet, unfortunately, due to the lack of regulation within the beauty industry, manufacturers can misleadingly label their products as ‘organic’ or ‘natural’ even though they contain processed, toxic and chemically enhanced ingredients.

Organic Fair Trade

From an article posted on the ORGANIC FAIR TRADE site:
"Did you know that the average woman applies more than 200 chemicals to her skin by using her skin care products in one day? Did you know that 60% of these chemicals are further absorbed into your bloodstream? These are two of the main reasons that organic skincare is one of the fastest growing areas of the beauty industry today. The more we learn about the bitter side effects of unhealthy skincare, the more quickly we will seek out other options."

Therefore, it’s important to always look for a trusted Certified Organic logo to ensure you are receiving a Certified Organic product you and your family can trust.

Why Organic?

Certified Organic products are held to the highest standards in terms of ingredient quality and manufacturing practices. They are rigorously tested to ensure that they are free of toxic synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and chemicals. At Organic Potions, we are proud to have our products certified by ECOCERT Greenlife, a leading international certification body and founding member of COSMOS-standard AISBL, as well as the Environmental Working Group (EWG) for select skincare products. Our commitment to using only the purest, highest-quality ingredients is at the heart of everything we do.

Certification Process

The certification process includes a yearly audit of all registered brand owners and manufacturers to ensure compliance with the strict regulations set out by the certification body.
Organic Potions Skin Care sources its ingredients from farms and processing facilities that follow strict organic farming regulations, including regular inspections, detailed record keeping, and testing of soil and water. By using ingredients that are certified organic, we ensure that our skin care products do not contain toxic or synthetic chemicals, such as insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, and fertilizers. Organic farming practices not only benefit the environment, but also provide a safer and more sustainable option for consumers who are increasingly aware of the benefits of using and consuming certified organic products.
