Organic Cosmetics Certification

According to the "Organic Cosmetics" certification standards, a cosmetic can be defined as such if it contains a minimum of 95% organic ingredients and if in the production process no substances of petroleum origin, paraffins, formaldehyde, dyes and products of synthetic origin or GMO substances are used. All these ingredients are replaced by plant derivatives such as floral waters, vegetable oils, essential oils and phytoextracts, preferably from organic farming, safer for the health of the consumer and with greater protection of the environment. Products certified as "Organic Cosmetics" are therefore more respectful of the skin and dermocompatible.
The Organic Cosmetics standard is “private”: it was in fact developed by a working group composed of experts belonging to companies and associations in the sector and is equivalent to the most important standards used at European level.
The certification is issued by the CCPB body which operates as a certification and control body for agri-food and “non-food” products obtained in the organic, eco-compatible and eco-sustainable production sector.
