The lexicon of ingredients

What's in it, that's the exciting question. We want it to be as natural as possible. It is clear that nature also has its limits. There are a lot of EU regulations to comply with, germ load tests, stability tests, microbiology tests, etc. to pass, so nature has a really hard time. It is not possible to pass these necessary tests and approvals without auxiliary materials. Nevertheless, when selecting these materials, we paid attention to the highest level of naturalness and compatibility.

In addition, there are buzzwords circulating online about ingredients that are spread with false information and that stick in consumers' minds as "bad." Ingredients have a specific name, but it depends on how they are made and what they are obtained from. All of our ingredients are of natural origin and of the highest quality.

Please listen to my podcast number 11, here I explain everything in detail! Just scroll all the way down.

Nevertheless, we have wonderful natural cosmetics in our range that also deserve the name. A lot of things are still done traditionally by hand, while in large-scale industry everything is done by machines. Not so with us, what counts for us is the person and their own touch, which is lovingly transferred into the product.

If you have any questions about an ingredient, please feel free to contact us.
