All our organic care

Cosmetics natural raise raise many questions: are they really better for the skin, health, and the environment? Here's how to recognize them, choose them and use them effectively.

What is a natural cosmetic? 

Natural, organic, and conventional cosmetics: what are the differences? 

• Cosmetics conventional mainly mainly use synthetic ingredients, often derived from petroleum (paraffin, silicones, PEG, etc.).

• Cosmetics natural prioritize prioritize active ingredients derived from nature (plant, mineral, marine), which are not necessarily organic. They limit or exclude synthetic compounds.

• A organic label certifies compliance with a set of specifications: cultivation without synthetic pesticides or GMOs, a minimum percentage of organic, exclusion of certain ingredients, etc.

Natural—does that necessarily mean raw or DIY? 

When we think of natural cosmetics, we often imagine homemade kits for DIY, old wives' remedies such as coffee grounds scrub using coffee grounds. Or even simple handmade natural products : a vegetable oil and a few drops ofessential oil, a limited range of solid cosmetics for hair... With raw raw scents and textures not pleasant. 

In reality, natural cosmetics can be very sophisticated, both in terms of formulation and sensoriality.

At oOlution, we combine science and nature. Our multi-action skincare products combine dozens of plant extracts with measured synergies. cosmetics 100% natural, complex, with natural fragrances delicate or enveloping fragrances, and textures suitable for all needs: light creams, balms creamy, dry oil, non-greasy.

Safer healthcare

The composition of our cosmetics has a direct impact on our bodies: the skin, an organ in its own right, absorbs some of the hygiene and beauty products we apply to it. 

Conventional cosmetics: problematic ingredients 

Certain authorized ingredients, commonly used in conventional skincare products, are suspected or known to be harmful. They may cause or promote endocrine disruption, irritation, allergies, carcinogenic, respiratory sensitivities, environmental pollution contaminating food, etc. 

The main ingredients to avoid :

• synthetic preservatives : parabens, phenoxyethanol, etc.
• petrochemical derivatives : PEG, silicones, mineral oils
• perfumes and synthetic colorants
• chemical sunscreens
• agents sulfates: SLS, SLES

Their risks are sometimes demonstrated by experts after years of use: it is important to remain cautious. 

natural ingredients  better tolerated, more environmentally friendly

The ingredients in natural beauty products, mainly sourced fromorganic farming, limit our exposure to controversial substances, respect the skin's balance, and are better absorbed.

Examples? 

• The vegetable butters and oils deeply nourish the skin without clogging it, thanks to their fatty acids that are perfectly compatible with the hydrolipidic film. They are non-occlusive occlusive and rich in nutrients that are beneficial for skin health.
• Flavonoids, tannins, polyphenols from floral waters and plant extracts that are soothing, purifying, and antioxidant are easily absorbed without causing irritation.
• Highly concentrated in active molecules with strong biological affinity, essential oils are unmatched in their effectiveness by their synthetic equivalents. When properly selected and dosed, they act without side effects.
• The vegetable powders or mineral (clay, rice powder, etc.) cleanse, mattify, gently exfoliate gently, whereas synthetic exfoliants can weaken the skin barrier.

An eco-friendly choice

The synthetic ingredients pose numerous environmental problems : polluting industrial processes, fossil resources, non-biodegradable substances, water pollution, etc. Theenvironmental footprint of ingredients of natural origin is significantly lower.

At oOlution, we use ingredients that are rigorously selected for their environmental friendliness: 

• organic farming or sustainable farming, sustainable harvesting
• gentle transformation through green, non-polluting chemistry

All French manufacture, in recyclable and/or reused containers. With our natural cosmetics , you are taking concrete action to help the planet.

Truly effective natural cosmetics

Lefficiency of well-formulated natural cosmetics is now widely recognized. It is based on clinical studies, user tests, and comparisons with conventional skincare products.

The synthetic ingredients are often inert (texture fillers, preservatives). They can even disrupt the skin's functioning, such as silicones that accumulate on its surface.

Natural ingredients include: 

• highly concentrated in active molecules : vitamins, antioxidants, amino acids, trace elements, etc.

• highly absorbable thanks to their affinity with the skin structure,

• multifunctional : where a synthetic ingredient acts on a lever, a plant-based active ingredient such asjojoba oil nourishes, repairs, regulates, and protects.

The natural molecules often outperform their synthetic equivalents: this is particularly true of antioxidants. And thanks to their synergies, they act deeply and over time, whereas conventional treatments aim for an immediate effect that is often short-lived.

At oOlution, each of our treatments incorporates up to 70 plant extracts, with no filler ingredients. Every component is active.
