Aloe + COSMOS:  guarantee for organic and natural cosmetics that you can trust.

Nowadays, consumers are not only looking for products that suits their needs on their skin, they go further, they want to buy effective, healthy, and natural products that protect their skin, without chemicals that are harsh to their bodies; that also helps the environment with sustainability practices. The natural category has exploded and now personal care and cosmetics industry goes natural and organic.

 

AMB Wellness chose Ecocert due to nearly 30 years of experience for audit and certification of organic products in more than 130 countries, Ecocert is the world’s leading specialist in the certification of sustainable practices.

 

AMB Wellness has turned to COSMOS standard and any product or raw material has been evaluated to confirm production and manufacturing have met the strict standards set forth.

The commitment AMB Wellness has with our customers makes us be certified in different schemes of international standards to give high quality raw materials.

 

COSMOS standard is a worldwide recognized signature that guarantees the consumer they can trust on the cosmetics and personal care products they are acquiring.

 

The COSMOS-standard defines the criteria that companies must meet to ensure consumers that their products are genuine organic or natural cosmetics produced to the highest feasible sustainability practices. 

 

Establishing a “sustainable development” that would reconcile economic progress, social responsibility and maintain the natural balance of the planet is a project in which the cosmetics sector is willing to be fully involved.

 

The COSMOS-Standard provides some general requirements and guidelines, which encompass forbidden materials and ingredients and no animal testing, both of which are outlined below.

 

Nanomaterials and GMO ingredients are forbidden

 

Nanomaterials are forbidden; however, applications for exceptions supported by technical dossiers will be considered. Additionally, genetically modified organisms (GMOs) cannot be utilized in products which seek to obtain COSMOS certification. As such, the contamination of primary raw materials must not be above 0.9% and can only be above the reliable detection limit of 0.1% if unintended or technically unavoidable.

 

No animal testing

 

The standard clearly states that cosmetic products must not be tested on animals by the manufacturer, or any third party induced by the manufacturer to do so. The only exception to this requirement is when it is required by law, other than cosmetic law.

 

 

Physically processed agro-ingredients (PPAI)

Primary raw materials of plant, animal or microbial origin that have been extracted using the physical processes listed in Appendix I and meet the following criteria:

 

  • Must respect the requirements of the Convention of International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).

Forbidden under this classification:

 

  • Genetically modified plants, plant materials and microorganisms, and

 

  • Primary raw materials extracted from living or slaughtered animals.

 

Ingredients of animal origin are allowed if they:

 

  • Are produced by animals but not part of the animal.
  • Do not entail the death of the animal, and
  • Were obtained using only the processes in Appendix I.

 

Chemically processed agro-ingredients (CPAI)

 

Any chemically processed product of plant, animal, or microbial origin that must meet the same initial requirements as PPAI:

Respect the requirements of CITES;

Genetically modified plants, plant materials and microorganisms are forbidden, and

Primary raw materials extracted from living or slaughtered animals are forbidden.

Likewise, ingredients of animal origin are allowed if they:

Are produced by animals but not part of the animal, and does not entail its death, and

Were obtained using only the processes in Appendices I and II.

Additionally:

Chemically processed agro-ingredients may contain mineral moieties, and

Alcohol and other by-products of fermentation are considered chemically processed agro-ingredients.
