All the products marketed with the Ecocert logo have been verified by our teams: from composition to processing and packaging. Consumers are thus given a transparent information on the content in natural and organic ingredients displayed on the products.
All the ingredients are from natural origin except a restrictive approved ingredients list (including preservatives) autorized in small quantity.

Promoting Organic
A beauty care product is COSMOS ORGANIC certified only if:-
95% minimum of the plants it contains are organic
-
At least 20% of organic ingredients are present in the total formula (10% for rinse-off products)
Note: water or minerals are not regarded as "organic" for they are not from agriculture. Since water is a major component of numerous cosmetic formulas, it implies a dilution of the proportion of organic ingredients out of the total of the product. Thus a massage oil which does not contain water may display up to 100% of organic ingredients.
Who are the recipients of this organic certification?
Producers of raw materials, manufacturers, brands or any player of the cosmetics sector can apply for this certification.
