Handmade cosmetic is not just one of the trends in the beauty industry. Handmade cosmetic is some kind of philosophy. All the ingredients have to be of natural origin and safe. According to the latest scientific researches, only 11 % of 11 500 chemical compounds used in modern cosmetology are safe and nontoxic.

Why overload your skin with chemicals and toxins when all the nature’s gifts are at your service: plant extracts, vegetable oils, herbals. Detoxication begins from the moment you feel a beautiful natural aroma instead of usual chemical scents!

There is no such notion as “natural cosmetics”. Every cosmetic brand which uses at least one natural component in a cream or a shampoo claim that its production is natural. It is really difficult to work with natural ingredients and a very few brands venture to do that. The chemical compound of so called “natural cosmetics” is not controlled by any organization.
