How to recognize natural cosmetics?

Several brands claim naturalness in the composition of their products. But how do you know if such and such a product has a composition of ingredients from nature that allows you to buy it with complete peace of mind, but also that they are really harmless (because you must never forget that plants or flowers can also be toxic).
So how can we recognize natural cosmetics ?

Recognize natural cosmetics:

It is never easy to understand the Latin names listed in the description of the mandatory ingredients on each cosmetic packaging. You should know that the ingredients are in descending order. Thus, the 1st entry on the list is present in the greatest quantity in the product, the last is present in a very low concentration.
Several elements must be taken into consideration to recognize natural cosmetics among an infinity of products.

The composition of the product

Les Sens de Marrakech products do not contain substances classified as CMR (carcinogenic, mutagenic, reprotoxic) that are harmful to the body. But our products go further. Thus, we do not and will never put materials derived from petroleum such as paraffin oil or silicone. (Read our article:Why choose silicone-free products? )
Many brands however use this last ingredient comedogenic (that is to say that it clogs the pores) for its soft and creamy texture. You may recognize it by various names including those including "Dimethicone" and derivatives or "cyclopentasiloxane".
For us however, we concoct natural cosmetics so that they do not contain any of these substances that we consider harmful to the skin. .

The mention of the Latin botanical name of the plant

For all Les Sens de Marrakech natural cosmetics, you will find in the list of ingredients the name of the natural plant active ingredients with the Latin botanical name of the plant from which they are extracted. Thanks to this you can be sure of the authenticity of the natural ingredients that we use.
For example, argan oil is called Arganiaspinosa kernel oil, prickly pear seed oil is Opuntia ficus-indica seed oil, aloe vera is Aloe Barbendesis, sweet almond oil is Prunus amygdalusdulcis oil…

The standards to which our products are subject

All the perfuming compositions that go into the creation of Les Sens de Marrakech products correspond to the standards of the International Perfume Association (IFRA) in order to ensure a composition without risk for the consumer.
These perfuming compositions are both perfumes from nature but also from the olfactory research of perfumers. So for a single perfume, the 2 elements can overlap for optimum rendering and safety.

Laboratory tests to ensure their natural quality

Because we believe that it is not healthy to be judge and judged and for total neutrality, we manufacture and test all natural cosmetics Les Sens de Marrakech, before putting them on sale, in an independent French laboratory. This ensures maximum safety of use.
