Natural Cosmetics & Organic Skincare: Deals & Coupons

More and more people are seeking a conscious and sustainable lifestyle – and that includes the care of our skin and hair. Natural cosmetics and organic skincare are no longer a niche trend, but a staple. But what's really behind it and how do you find the best deals? This blog post gives you an overview and reveals how you can cleverly save on your favorite organic natural care.

What you should know

Unfortunately, the term "natural cosmetics" is not protected, which means that any manufacturer can use it. However, there are various seals and certifications that help you distinguish real natural cosmetics from greenwashing. Organic natural skincare takes this a step further and places particular emphasis on the origin of the ingredients: they must come from controlled organic cultivation. The difference is subtle, but important if you value sustainability and the highest quality standards.

What does that mean in concrete terms? Real natural cosmetics avoid synthetic fragrances, colors, and preservatives, silicones, mineral oils, and parabens. Instead, vegetable oils, herbal extracts, floral waters, and other natural ingredients are used. Organic natural skincare adds ecologically produced ingredients to this, which reduces environmental impact and supports fair working conditions.

Why is that good for you and the environment? Natural cosmetics and organic skincare are often gentler on the skin, especially for people with sensitive skin or allergies. They are biodegradable and thus protect the environment. In addition, by purchasing organic natural skincare, you support sustainable agriculture and fair trade.

The most important seals at a glance:

• BDIH (Federal Association of German Industry and Trading Companies): One of the oldest and strictest seals for natural cosmetics in Germany.
• NATRUE (Natural & Organic Cosmetic Association): International seal that sets high requirements for ingredients and manufacturing processes.
• COSMOS (COSMetic Organic and Natural Standard): Another widely used international seal.
• PETA Cruelty-Free: Indicates that the product and its ingredients have not been tested on animals.
• Vegan: Confirms that the product contains no animal ingredients.
