How We Source Organic Ingredients for Your Skincare
At Naturally COS, we believe skincare should be more than just a product; it should embody sustainability, wellness, and care for the planet. Every bottle of skincare we produce tells a story of organic integrity and environmental responsibility, a journey that begins long before it reaches your hands. From Fair Trade farmers to eco-friendly packaging, here’s how we source our organic ingredients to create products that are good for you and the planet.
The Importance of Organic Sourcing
When you choose skincare made with organic ingredients, you’re not just investing in your skin—you’re supporting a movement that values health, sustainability, and ethical practices. Organic farming avoids the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilisers, ensuring the ingredients you apply to your skin are free from harmful chemicals. Moreover, organic sourcing promotes biodiversity, soil health, and sustainable farming practices, making it a win for both your health and the environment.
Partnering with Fair Trade Farmers
Our commitment to ethical sourcing begins with our partnerships. Naturally COS proudly collaborates with Fair Trade farmers who uphold ethical practices that ensure fair wages, safe working conditions, and sustainable agricultural methods.
These partnerships allow us to trace the journey of every ingredient from the farm to our lab. By working with Fair Trade farmers, we not only support local communities but also ensure that the ingredients in your skincare are harvested with care, respect, and a commitment to the environment.
Sourcing Directly from Farmers in Queensland
To further our dedication to transparency and quality, we source many of our ingredients directly from farmers in Queensland. This local-first approach reduces transportation emissions, supports the Australian agricultural industry, and ensures our ingredients are as fresh as possible.
From aloe vera to Australian kaolin clay, our products celebrate the abundance of Queensland’s natural resources. This direct collaboration with farmers also allows us to maintain a personal connection to the land, ensuring our products remain true to their roots.
COSMOS-Certified Ingredients
Every ingredient we use is COSMOS-certified, the global standard for organic and natural cosmetics. This certification guarantees that our formulations meet rigorous criteria for sustainability, biodegradability, and eco-friendliness. It’s our promise to you that what you’re applying to your skin is not only safe and effective but also ethically and environmentally sound.
Sustainability at Every Step
Our commitment to the environment doesn’t end with the ingredients we source—it extends to every aspect of our packaging and production processes.
- Eco-Friendly Packaging: We use recyclable materials such as glass, metal, and biodegradable pouches to minimise waste. By eliminating plastic packaging, we take a stand against pollution and reduce our environmental footprint.
- Handcrafted in Small Batches: Every Naturally COS product is handcrafted and bottled on the Gold Coast, allowing us to ensure quality and minimise waste during production.
- Sustainable Farming Practices: We work with farmers who grow their crops sustainably, focusing on soil health, water conservation, and biodiversity.
The Benefits of Organic Ingredients for Your Skin
Organic ingredients are not only better for the planet but also incredibly beneficial for your skin. Here are just a few of the ingredients we incorporate into our skincare products and their benefits:
- Aloe Vera: Naturally soothing and hydrating, aloe vera reduces inflammation and promotes skin healing.
- Coconut Oil: Packed with natural antibacterial and moisturising properties, coconut oil helps maintain smooth and healthy skin.
- Vitamin E: A powerful antioxidant that helps repair skin, reduce scars, and protect against environmental damage.
- Distilled Mount Tamborine Water: Ultra-pure and mineral-rich, this water deeply hydrates and refreshes your skin.
- Jojoba Oil: Known for its similarity to the skin’s natural oils, jojoba oil balances moisture levels and supports elasticity.
- Shea Butter: Rich in fatty acids and vitamins, shea butter provides deep nourishment, locks in hydration, and soothes dry or irritated skin.
These organic ingredients work in harmony with your skin’s natural processes, providing nourishment without the risk of harsh chemicals or irritants.
