Behind a single organic ingredient in a cosmetic formula or a marketing campaign, there may be others hiding, chemical, controversial, or harmful to health. The Cosmébio label takes a stand against greenwashing and fights against beauty brands that falsely claim to be natural.
To transform consumption habits and support the ecological transition, the fight against greenwashing is essential. According to an investigation by the DGCCRF* published in 2023, one quarter of the businesses inspected in non-food products and services were non-compliant. Greenwashing is everywhere, and cosmetics are no exception. Some uncertified beauty brands use a single organic ingredient as a marketing argument to give a “green” image to products that are not at all natural.
A single organic ingredient hidden among a long list of controversial chemical substances does not make a product organic.
Only the Cosmébio label guarantees that a product is truly organic and natural. With Cosmébio, no false promises: every certified product meets strict criteria of naturalness, sustainability, and transparency. Phyltres skincare products are certified Cosmébio Natural or Organic.
Don’t fall into the trap. Check product labels, and take the time to read the INCI list, which informs you about the nature of cosmetic ingredients. For truly organic and natural beauty, choose products certified by Cosmébio, the label that distinguishes real organic from fake.
