Why Organic?

Why Organic?

Organic Skin Australia is proudly certified with The Organic Food Chain Pty Ltd (OFC). The OFC endorses certification to Australia’s national organic export standard; the National Standard for Organic and Bio-Dynamic Produce. This standard guarantees that ingredients sourced, must be done so through organic production systems thus reducing the environmental impact and assuring the improvement of biodiversity. Plant ingredients produced in this way, ensures an abundance of pure nutrients without any harmful pesticides, synthetics or nasty contaminates, making them 100% toxic free.

OFC endorsement means that each and every product created at Organic Skin Australia is strategically blended with results-driven, active ‘clean’ certified organic ingredients, that have been sourced through ethical standards. Each OSA product in our collection is guaranteed to have a minimum of 70% certified organic content with the remaining ingredients being 100% naturally derived. We can trace each and every ingredient back to the earth.

Why choose certified organic? The world we live in has become complacent with the use of pesticides and other nasty and harmful chemicals, not only found in food but also cosmetics. At Organic Skin Australia we recognise this and feel compelled to make a positive impact on the earth and for humankind.

There is a rule of thumb with our natural skincare range – it should be safe enough to eat. It is pretty simple; the inclusion of better ingredients equals better results! Using natural and certified ingredients has a multitude of benefits such as:

  • An abundance of nutrient rich ingredients used in each and every product to guarantee the most potent and purest content and delivery.
  • Formulations gentle enough for any skin type due to NO harmful ingredients.
  • Ingredients that pose no toxic burden on the skin and body.
  • Eco friendly due to cultivation through environmentally sustainable practices.
  • Choosing pure, certified organic essential oils avoids artificial perfumes and also adds holistic benefits for the skin, mind and body.
  • Natural anti-ageing benefits; plumping and hydrating with the use of natural ingredients that penetrate the skin and do not mask the condition by filling wrinkles with petroleum by products or silicones.
  • Healing with the use of potent antioxidants and fatty acids/rich moisturising nutrients, that inhibit collagen degradation leaving the skin smooth and youthful.
