What does our symbol mean?
Working with nature, Soil Association Certification believe in organic alternatives. We make it simpler for you to choose organic formulations that are just as effective without any ugly compromises.
We prefer our lotions and potions to be packed full of goodness. For us, this means effective formulations made using organically farmed ingredients that have been grown without
being genetically modified (non-GM) and with no herbicides or synthetic fertilisers.
Sounding prettier already, right?
Looking and feeling good shouldn’t mean ugly compromises,so when you see our logo on a product you know it’s sourced and manufactured using sustainable ingredients, not tested on
animals, free from harsh chemicals, nano particles, parabens, synthetic dyes and artificial fragrances.
Surely that’s a thing of beauty. For us and our planet.
Organic is at the heart of everything we do. We recognise that to encourage more people to try and buy organic, we need to reach out to new audiences. The natural cosmetics industry is booming, but in this unregulated sector, consumers have no way to know whether a natural product actually contains ingredients which fit with the natural ethos.
To address this we also offer COSMOS natural certification. The COSMOS Natural products do not have to contain any organic ingredients – although in practice many do. COSMOS Natural is most suitable for products containing a lot of ingredients which cannot be organic, such as water, salt or clay – for example toners, bath salts or face masks.
