High-quality natural cosmetics from Switzerland

Kingnature loves to produce natural cosmetics worthy of the name! It is important to us that there is as much nature in our products as possible. We therefore use natural raw materials and substances whenever and as much as possible. Natural means from nature or occurring in nature. We put a lot of research and work into realizing this goal. However, traces of “non-natural” substances, which are of course permitted in natural cosmetics, are sometimes necessary, for example to preserve a product. When selecting the raw materials, we pay attention to high quality in order to achieve optimum care effectiveness.

Natural cosmetics

What is natural cosmetics?

Typically, the term “natural” implies that manufacturers do not use synthetically derived chemical ingredients in the creation of their products. Instead, scientists design the formula using naturally occurring chemical ingredients. However, the term natural cosmetics is not protected by law. When choosing natural cosmetic products, consumers should look for specific seals. Advertisements for cosmetics that use plants, for example, are not very meaningful, because they, too, can consist largely of synthetic chemical ingredients. The specific seals for natural cosmetics contain more bans on chemical or synthetic substances compared to the EU Cosmetics Regulation.

Regardless of the source of ingredients, cosmetics are all formulated with chemical ingredients. It is important to remember that everything is made of chemicals.

Synonymous with natural cosmetics are often used vegan cosmetics, organic cosmetics, ecocosmetics and organic cosmetics. But these terms stand for different products. The most important criterion for genuine natural cosmetics is certification.

Natural cosmetics strongly influence and change the cosmetic panorama. Many people think first of “beauty” when they think of cosmetics. Especially with natural cosmetics, many have the expectation that the products they buy also include sustainability, environmental friendliness and ethical compatibility. Natural cosmetics meet these characteristics in a natural way. They are among the core values of natural cosmetics. Natural cosmetics is committed to the well-being of people. At the same time, it is committed to environmental protection and biodiversity.

Conventional versus natural cosmetics

Conventional cosmetics often consist largely of ingredients based on petroleum. They may also consist of ingredients such as parabens or oxybenzone. The use of petroleum-based substances in the manufacture of cosmetics is regulated by certain specifications. However, it still represents a contradiction in the production of natural cosmetics. Products manufactured on the basis of petroleum are not pure or genuine natural cosmetics. The main ingredients of natural cosmetics are mainly minerals, extracts from plants or substances produced from microorganisms. The plant extracts are mixed together with valuable oils. The combination of oils and plant extracts provides the skin with sufficient moisture and protects it in this way at the same time. There are various certification seals for natural cosmetic products. They indicate that the products are organic, comply with the concept of sustainability and can also be biodegraded. From the certification seals, they can see the origin of the ingredients and the degree of its naturalness.

Describe function in the body

In addition to naturally protecting and caring for our skin, natural and organic cosmetics also contribute to our well-being. Their representation of nature through natural fragrances and delicate textures brings us closer to it and awakens our senses.

Oils, which are essential and natural, are extracted from plants such as rose, mint or even lavender and are used in aromatherapy. On the one hand, they support the activity of our body, but at the same time help it to relax and calm down. Natural or organic cosmetics is not just a beauty product, but a replica of nature in perfect harmony with our body and our world.

How to recognize natural cosmetics

While many cosmetics claim to be “natural” or “organic,” not all offer verifiable guarantees of these properties. Reviewing the ingredients (INCI list) on the packaging can help consumers assess the level of accuracy of such claims, but not for every ingredient, as claims regarding ingredient origin are not regulated by law. When buying cosmetic products, we have certain expectations and hopes. In order not to be disappointed, we can be guided by certain certifications. One of these certifications is NATRUE. NATRUE itself raises high standards regarding the manufacturing processes, composition as well as ingredients of the products. Consumers can find a point of reference when buying natural cosmetics with the help of this certification. The label guarantees the naturalness of the products.

Natural ingredients for skin care

Some of the most effective, scientifically proven ingredients in beauty products come from natural sources. So if you want to try natural skin care, there are many different solutions for different skin types.

Rosehip Seed Oil

Rosehip seed oil is naturally rich in linoleic acid (omega-6), linolenic acid (omega-3) and vitamin A. This helps fight signs of aging, hyperpigmentation, scarring and other skin conditions.

Rosehip seed oil may also be listed as an ingredient under the name “Rosa Canina Seed Oil,” and you should look for a 100% cold-pressed formulation for maximum results.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C has undoubtedly been one of the biggest beauty breakout stars of the past few years. If you’re not using a vitamin C product, we recommend you do so immediately.

Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is an antioxidant. It helps brighten, smooth and tighten skin by promoting healthy collagen production and skin cell renewal.

Fortunately, vitamin C is found in many natural products such as citrus oils, pomegranate seeds and seaweed.

Willow Bark Extract

Willow bark extract is an all-natural ingredient rich in salicylic acid, which is the main ingredient in most acne treatments.

Salicylic acid is a BHA (beta hydroxy acid) exfoliant that helps remove dead skin cells and cleanse pores.

This can help heal breakouts, blemishes and oily skin. In addition, salicylic acid is gentle enough for daily use because it also contains natural skin-soothing properties.

If you are thinking about going natural but are concerned about forgoing acne treatments, then willow bark extract is crucial for you.
