What is the COSMOS certification?
A product is certified COSMOS (COSMetic Organic and natural Standard) when all the ingredients are from natural origin except a restrictive approved ingredients list (including preservatives) authorised in small quantity. In average, COSMOS Ecocert certified products contain 99% ingredients of natural origin.
- The COSMOS-standard applies to cosmetic products that are marketed as organic or natural. Its guiding principles are to:
- promote the use of products from organic agriculture, and respect biodiversity;
- use natural resources responsibly, and respect the environment;
- use processing and manufacturing that are clean and respectful of human health and the environment;
- integrate and develop the concept of “Green Chemistry”.
- The Standard covers all aspects of the sourcing, manufacture, marketing and control of cosmetic products in 12 chapters.
