REGENERATING NATURE: WHY CHOOSE NATURAL COSMETICS?
Today, there is a growing trend towards natural cosmetic products. But why should you choose them? The skin is our largest organ and it absorbs almost 60% of the substances that come into contact with it, including creams and cosmetics. For this reason it is very important to be aware of what we apply on our face and body.
We refer to natural cosmetics or biocosmetics when the products are made with natural and plant-based ingredients, often from organic and biological crops. While many traditional cosmetics contain toxic and harmful substances that enter the body through the skin, biocosmetics are safer because they are free of nickel, aluminium and other allergens that can cause allergic reactions and skin spots. They are also more effective than traditional products because they are rich in vitamins, minerals and micronutrients and a small amount is enough to achieve good results.
Beech buds, hibiscus, mullein and cornflower extracts, active ingredients of marigold and panthenol, shea butter, argan and apricot oils, lotus flower extracts, rose and rosemary essential oils. These are only some of the ingredients contained in the Lefay SPA “Tra Suoni e Colori” cosmetic line products, which combines nature and science. The Lefay SPA products are rich in the different natural colours, representing the best-known, precious and well experimented medicinal plants and their formulations, developed to help the skin breathe, are tailored to individual needs.
According to the principles of Classical Chinese Medicine, everything that makes us feel good is around us. Therefore, our products use natural elements from the surrounding areas, such as Mediterranean plants, flowers of the Dolomites, alpine mud and extra virgin olive oil.
As well as being safer for our skin, another reason to choose natural cosmetics is that they treat the world around us, both nature and animals, fairly. Unfortunately, many products are still tested on animals: Although the European Union has banned this practice for many years, there are other countries that still require it before products can be launched in the market and there are still companies of European origin exporting to these countries.
All the products in the Lefay SPA cosmetic line are vegan certified and therefore do not contain any raw materials of animal origin or obtained through the exploitation of animals. They are dermatologically tested and are free from parabens, SLES and colourings. In particular, the face and body cosmetic oil line is certified Cosmos Organic, the European standard for green chemistry that verifies the sustainability of the entire production process.
All Lefay SPA products are available on our e-Boutique.
