Best foundation of 2021: here is our selection of top products for everyone How to recognize if made in Italy products are organic?

It is important to point out that organic cosmetics are natural but not all natural cosmetics can be defined as organic: the latter, in fact, have one or more certification marks issued by bodies responsible for verifying the origin of the ingredients used. A few examples? Only from organic farming or without GMOs, pesticides.
Certification is therefore an additional element of guarantee, but it is important to know how to recognize the quality of a natural cosmetic even in the absence of certification. How to do? Simple: just read the INCI 😉

How do you read the INCI of the products?

INCI, International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients, presents on the label the ingredients contained in the formulation in decreasing weight order. The first on the list are therefore the most concentrated. It is important to emphasize that it is mandatory to include all the ingredients present in the formula in the INCI.
Learning to recognize natural ingredients will therefore help us evaluate a product. Scientific names are given in Latin or English. The most common? Cocos Nucifera Oil is coconut oil, Prunus Amigdalus Dulcis Oil is sweet almond oil, while Butyrospermum Parkii (shea butter) is shea butter.
