Cosmetics, the most promising field in the emotional era of the 21st century, is a multi-disciplinary region consisting of biotechnology, chemistry, life science, chemical engineering, pharmacy, dermatology, art and business administration.
It can contribute to a beautiful life in the aesthetic and psychological aspect. Therefore, the cosmetic industry is becoming a cutting-edge integrated science industry that can positively affect psychological and sociocultural elements of human beings.
The Department of Biocosmetics is a graduate course opened in September 2016, aiming to cultivate top-notch experts in the cosmetic industry through excellent education and research programs.
After graduation, graduates are working in cosmetics and pharmaceutical companies, bio-ventures, universities, and national/public research institutes.
Biocosmetics: Why they are the new brand differentiator
Biocosmetics are an evolution of natural skin care and organic cosmetics, featuring more than 99% plant-derived ingredients. While natural ingredients have numerous benefits for our hair, skin, and body, beauty brands need to go further, as important new dynamics in the natural beauty market arise. Biocosmetics provide a distinct answer for these new consumer demands that brands need to address.
This trend shows no sign of slowing, currently, this age group of women says they are willing to pay more for products with natural ingredients. However, as the younger segment of this group ages, their preference for natural ingredients will become an expectation rather than a perk, suggesting that ‘natural’ may longer be an effective brand differentiator, even when holding natural and organic certifications This is where biocosmetics come in – here, we discuss their features in a little more detail.
Czym jest korund?
Korund kosmetyczny to zmikronizowany tlenek glinu lub mówiąc inaczej tlenek aluminium. Zmikronizowany, czyli rozdrobniony do wielkości drobnego pyłu o średnicy około 100 mikrometrów. Korund jest związkiem trwałym, nie wchodzi w reakcje z kosmetykami, jest obojętny i bezpieczny dla naszej skóry. Musimy oczywiście wiedzieć jak go stosować.
Korund jest dużo ostrzejszy niż peelingi z drogeryjnej półki. Nie stosujemy go z samą wodą, bo może powodować podrażnienia. Musimy połączyć korund z kosmetykami, które zapewnią odpowiedni poślizg i sprawią, że peeling będzie łagodniejszy dla naszej skóry.
1. Korund łączymy z:
- żelem hialuronowym
- żelem do mycia twarzy
- mleczkiem kosmetycznym
- ulubionym olejem naturalnym
Is biocosmetics effective?
In recent years organic products and BIO have become popular and now more people are looking for these labels on the items they buy, both food and cosmetic. But do they really work or is it a fad?
The biocosmetic contains natural ingredients so that allergies and other dermatological problems are avoided. The effectiveness of ecological cosmetics depends on its composition and the substances it includes. However, essential oils have numerous active ingredients that act more efficiently on the skin than other chemical elements.
At Verdeaurora Bio Farm, all our products are ecological, natural and respect the environment. Aloe vera and extra virgin olive oil are two of our star ingredients that favor any type of skin. Come visit us and try our bio cosmetics. We are waiting for you in Fuerteventura!
What’s the difference between biocosmetics and organic cosmetics?
As we’ve seen above, biocosmetics and organic cosmetics are not the same. On the one hand, it’s true that both biocosmetics and organic cosmetics share a common goal: using natural ingredients that are safe and plant-based.
However, there are at least two key differences between the two:
- Organic cosmetics are defined by being made entirely from natural and organic ingredients, that is, ingredients that have grown following guidelines of organic farming (including the need to be processed without the use of synthetic chemicals, pesticides, or fertilizers).
- Contrary to what happens with biocosmetics, there are specific certifications targeting organic cosmetics. These standards are issued by a recognized certification body and aim at certifying particular requirements, such as that a certain percentage of the ingredients in the cosmetic product must be certified organic. On the other hand, there are no such specific standards or certifications that target biocosmetics.
As we’ve seen above, there’s not one particular certification that can verify that a cosmetic product can be considered as part of biocosmetics.
However, looking at the characteristics of biocosmetics that we’ve outlined above, it’s possible to make a preliminary verification checklist that consumers can use in case they want to determine whether a cosmetic formulation can be considered as part of biocosmetics:
- This checklist starts by looking at the formulation’s INCI, the International Nomenclature for Cosmetic Ingredients or, in other words, the ingredients that are part of a cosmetic formulation. At this point, consumers can notice if the formulation includes natural ingredients as well as synthetic chemicals such as parabens, or artificial fragrances, among other problematic ingredients.
- Concerning animal testing, some of the most well-known certifications include those developed by PETA, CCF (Choose Cruelty Free) and Leaping Bunny.
- Finally, as we’ve mentioned above, some certifications can verify some of the features that define whether a formulation is part of biocosmetics or not, including those issued by Ecocert, Cosmébio, USDA o BDIH.
