Why have natural cosmetics won the hearts of consumers around the world?

Both consumers and producers are becoming more and more open to the use of natural cosmetics, as evidenced by their use of a variety of natural cosmetic raw materials and ingredients.

The ubiquitous trend of ecological and health awareness has an impact on changing this attitude. Numerous studies confirm that the role of green or natural products is becoming increasingly important in the cosmetics industry.

Natural and organic cosmetics are significantly influencing and changing the cosmetics market. Beauty, nature and health are not only the slogan that expresses the mission of the CBD Skin Expert brand, but these are natural associations when we think of cosmetic products, because more and more consumers expect the cosmetics they buy to have "sustainable", "eco-friendly" and "ethical" features. Natural and organic cosmetics represent these features in an authentic way, because they are part of their core values and commitment not only to the well-being of people, but also to the protection of the environment and biodiversity. For the CBD Skin Expert brand and all products from the line Therapy and Beauty these values are paramount, which is why we use both herbal and natural ingredients as well as the precious full spectrum CBD in our cosmetics.

We produce cosmetics with those who will use them in mind, but we also have a higher goal – the good of the planet. Natural cosmetics help reduce our personal ecological footprint.

Being aware of the products you use will help create a greener and safer environment for you and future generations. But of course, it's not just our environment that we have to care about, which is why natural products are better. Products loaded with chemicals and toxins are absorbed through the skin and can harm you.

Using natural does not mean that we have to give up on the quality of beauty care. Quite the opposite. Using natural products you will notice an improvement in the condition of your skin, a reduction in redness, irritation and pimples, as well as a reduction in wrinkles. Natural products provide a holistic sense of health and well-being reflected in the appearance of the body!

How do we change the world through our cosmetics?

Our lines of great creams and ointments therapeutic with CBD full spectrum  skin care products are not only designed to look and feel great, but also to be safe for the planet thanks to their natural ingredients. The ingredients we use come from organic farming and the production of these products is based on natural processes. We also make sure that our packaging is kept to a minimum and recycled where possible – all of which reduces our impact on the environment.

What does natural cosmetic mean?

Cosmetic products marked with the term "natural" on their packaging, in accordance with, for example, US legislation, must contain at least 70% of natural substances, excluding water; they must not contain a fragrance ingredient other than a natural substance or an ingredient of natural origin and, apart from natural substances and water, contain only ingredients of natural origin.

Polish legislation is in line with the EU Commission Directive on cosmetic products (76/768/EEC), and the guidelines of the Expert Committee on Cosmetic Products of the Public Health Committee of the Council of Europe (ESCOP) of September 2000 define the concept of a natural cosmetic as a product that it is intended to beautify and care using natural substances that are friendly to the skin and the environment, promoting health, supporting the body's self-regulation and supporting the long-term maintenance of natural beauty and the harmonious development of body and soul, and is obtained from ingredients of natural origin (plant, animal, mineral), obtained by physical methods (e.g. pressing, extraction, filtration, distillation, drying, etc.), microbiological or enzymatic.

How to recognize "natural" cosmetics ?

First of all, read the labels and check the ingredients (INCI list) on the packaging. This helps to assess the degree of accuracy of the ingredients. CBD Skin Expert attaches great importance to the recipes and description of the contents of care creams and therapeutic ointments.

Do you know 3 important reasons why it is worth reading labels and reaching for natural cosmetics?

#1 Caring for your body

Natural and organic cosmetics provide natural protection and care for the skin. Natural essences and delicate textures reflect nature, stimulating our senses. Many natural essential oils from plants such as lavender, rose or mint are used in aromatherapy because they help to stimulate, relax and calm our body. Natural or organic cosmetics are not only beauty products, but a recreation of nature in perfect harmony with our body and the world.

Natural cosmetics feature sustainable, organic and biodegradable ingredients and help reassure consumers about the authenticity, origin and quality of these products.

#2 A more sustainable and environmentally friendly approach

Many petroleum-based ingredients, often used in conventional cosmetics, require intensive extraction, as in the case of crude oil, aluminum or lead, which endangers the soil and poses a threat to the ecosystem. In contrast to petrochemicals, natural and organic ingredients come mainly from cultivated plants and flowers, the extracts of which are used in cosmetic formulas. The use of a variety of natural and organic raw materials requires the protection of the biodiversity of wildlife habitats and the maintenance of sustainable production of different plant and flower species.

The main value of natural cosmetics is that they must be in harmony with nature, including the impact of packaging and packaging materials used.

#3 More than just a cosmetic: ethical and social dimensions

Natural and organic cosmetics brands are often small and medium-sized businesses, and their production is mainly local, regional or national. More local production can contribute to more sustainable and potentially shorter supply chains, as well as a more personal, authentic brand image. It is also an ethical collaboration between manufacturer and supplier. CBD Skin Expert sources only from verified manufacturers.
