LOOK FOR LAYMENS TERMS IN BRACKETS ON COSMETICS LABELS


Lets face it, reading cosmetic/body care ingredients lists these days is a bit like grappling with a foreign language, yet here is hidden vital information that can determine the safety of the products you use daily.

Under the cosmetics regulations in most countries, ingredients must be listed using the International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients (INCI) format. Therefore a simple ingredient such as Lemongrass essential oil becomes Cymbopogon flexuosus oil using INCI…….confusing, isn’t it?

Ethical companies want their customers to be knowledgeable about ingredients, and understand that most people won’t know that Cymbopogon flexuosus is the Latin and INCI name for Lemongrass essential oil. Therefore look for products with the layman terms in parenthesis to help you understand what in in the product.

At Indochine Natural our ingredient labels are like this:

Sodium Palmate (palm oil), Sodium Cocoate (coconut oil), Aqua (water), Cymbopogon flexuosus (Lemongrass) oil, Curcuma longa (Turmeric) powder, Cymbopogon flexuosus (Lemongrass) leaf powder.

You would have to agree that this is 100% clear in what is in this product?

You can check out all of Indochine Natural ingredients lists on our website

And, if you are still unsure or have any questions, email Dr. Mike.

WHO IS PRODUCING YOUR BODY CARE PRODUCTS?


Indochine Natural is different from many others in that the company co-founder Dr. Mike Thair, who is now in his sixties, is a scientist from the “old-school” where things are done the traditional way of hand producing products in small batches using all-natural ingredients, just as our forefathers did……no short-cuts and use of synthetic ingredients. This ensures that customers are purchasing totally pure and natural body care products that they can trust and their health is protected.

Cosmetic science is a constantly evolving discipline influenced by chemistry, formulating regimes, regulatory and legal considerations, as well as ever-changing consumer preferences and trends. This makes it probably one of the most challenging undertakings for a scientist, and what better guarantee than the in-house scientific expertise of Dr. Mike Thair to ensure the highest levels of product safety and quality.
