Organic Certified Skin Care

Organic skin care and organic personal care is not legally regulated in the same way as organic food and drink. Skincare and toiletries can be called organic and natural, even if they contain a tiny percentage of organically grown ingredients. The only way to be sure that the product you are using is genuinely organic is to use products that are certified organic by an independent organic body.

Organic skincare certified according to Soil Association organic standards which are among the strictest in the world for organic beauty products can be confidently used. Few companies have achieved this organic skin care certification.

The Soil Association's organic standards are that beauty products should be ethical, chemical-free and as organic as possible. In particular, the Soil Association ensures that any products carrying its logo not only use organically grown ingredients where available, but also do not contain the toxic and harmful chemical substances that we are strongly against.

To obtain organic certification for a product, a minimum of 95% of all ingredients must be certified organic. Where insufficient organically grown ingredients exist, the Soil Association will approve products that contain at least 70% organic ingredients but they cannot be labelled "organic". The remaining ingredients, however, are also bound by strict guidelines. Substances suspected of being toxic to humans or the environment are not allowed, neither are genetically modified ingredients.

To be accepted by the Soil Association, suppliers' certificates must either be issued by the Soil Association or by a body that the Soil Association recognises as equally rigorous in its testing and certification.

Soil Association requires declarations from every supplier of a non-organic ingredient (where organic is not available) to prove that it is GM free.

There can be a huge gap in purity and organic content between a product that claims to have natural or "certified organic ingredients", and one that bears the Soil Association logo indicating the whole product has been independently certified as having a certain organic content and being free from suspect substances.

Dr Alkaitis Product Reviews

Dr Alkaitis Day Moisturiser and Serum
Tester: Mediterranean complexion with combination skin prone to redness.
Dr Alkaitis Skin Care is a new green organic beauty line from the US landing in the UK this summer. I was instantly intrigued by the packaging, which is so soft and modern, yet still luxurious. I wanted to try skin products that were usually in my skincare regimen, so I chose the Dr Alkaitis Day Moisturizer and Dr Alkaitis Herbal Serum. I was very pleased with the results!
I found that the toner gel did not just add a refreshing mist of moisture to my skin – the fragrance was truly delicious, and the products really added a little “something” special to my skin.
The scent of the water and cream are herbal, very light and refreshing and invigorating. I used it as a toner and it took off last traces of makeup. I also sprayed it on my face before my serum/moisturizer in the morning and it left my face soft and moisturized and supple, not tight and dry and didn't strip my skin at all.
I found from the first few uses that Dr Alkaitis products made my skin glow, and left no greasy or sticky finish to my skin. I highly recommend these organic skincare products in a routine before your serum or moisturizer, or after working out.
Dr Alkaitis Skin Care is a luxury organic line that makes sense! I can’t wait to try additional products from the line.
Dr Alkaitis skincare and a fabulous range of organic skin care and organic cosmetics are available UK nationwide at Naturisimo The Organic Skincare Company.
