MuLondon signs Compact for Safe Cosmetics

Wednesday, March 16th, 2011

MuLondon – Natural Organic Skincare signs The Compact for Safe Cosmetics and receives full membership status, proving that divinely fragranced and effective skincare products can also be safe and free from toxic ingredients.

The Compact for Safe Cosmetics is part of a campaign that works to improve the safety of cosmetics and personal care products on the market. It is founded by The Environmental Working Group, Breast Cancer Fund and Friends of the Earth, among others. The idea behind The Compact is that by having companies committing to providing better information about their product ingredients, consumers can make informed decisions when they go shopping for cosmetics and skincare products. One of The Compact’s primary goals is to eliminate harmful chemicals from cosmetics and personal care products.

 

Signing The Compact for Safe Cosmetics is a natural step for MuLondon – Natural Organic Skincare, since the whole philosophy behind MuLondon is to make safe, effective and natural moisturisers without any preservatives or toxic ingredients that can harm the body or the world we live in.

All MuLondon products are guaranteed 100 percent natural, vegan, free of preservatives, and, of course, never tested on animals and contain no animal products. They only contain reliable, tested ingredients such as Jojoba oil and Shea butter that are safe to use on a daily basis, and natural fragrances such as Lavender, Rose, and Marigold that won’t irritate even the most sensitive skin. Certified organic ingredients are used whenever possible.

 

To this date, more than 1,300 companies have signed The Compact for Safe Cosmetics, but only 250 are fully compliant. MuLondon is one of the 250 fully compliant companies and receives zero hazard rating for all its products. That is the safest rating any product can get and means that MuLondon is among the safest skincare choices out on the market.

In other words, the many women and men out there who have grown used to pampering their skin with MuLondon’s moisturisers and can’t imagine giving them up, don’t have to. They can safely continue using them without having to worry for their own health or the well-being of the planet. MuLondon’s products can be used with a clean conscience.

Boris Zatezic, founder of MuLondon says: “I am delighted to be a signer of The Compact for Safe Cosmetics, and proud that we have achieved full membership status and zero hazard rating for all MuLondon products. Having safe and effective skincare has always been the driving force behind MuLondon, and this proves publicly how committed I am to delivering that.

A chemical free life?

Tuesday, February 15th, 2011

At www.OVnaturals.co.uk we try to offer a balanced view while adhering to our strict standards and ethics. Increasingly, consumers are asking questions about the products they use on their skin. What exactly is ‘natural’ and ‘organic’? Is synthetic always bad? Is it realistic to try and avoid all chemicals? Here’s a summary of what we’ve discovered…


There’s no such thing as a chemical-free life, as chemicals make up all living things. Not all chemicals are bad, for example, essential oils contain complex naturally-occurring chemicals with active therapeutic benefits when used correctly. When used incorrectly, these ingredients may be harmful. 
 
Safety is often determined by dose. Just a small amount of pure Eucalyptus oil, if ingested, can be fatal, however, when used in the correct dosage this is one of the most effective essential oils to ease catarrhal conditions. Likewise, drinking too much water can kill you but we all know that water is good for us, indeed, necessary for life.


Regarding synthetic ingredients, there are many conflicting reports about their dangers. We increasingly hear that certain commonly-used synthetic chemicals cause, or contribute to, disease, while there is usually a counter-argument. At Orchard View, we believe that there has been too much reliance on unnecessarily harsh synthetic ingredients in our society and we seek effective, approved natural alternatives where possible while also considering your safety. For example, we would consider an approved, synthetic preservative more preferable than bacteria or fungal growth in your face cream! Preservative systems, where needed in our products, are as mild as possible. We believe in gorgeous, as-natural-as-can-be products which work to keep you safe and beautiful, without being laden with unnecessary synthetic ingredients. We will tell you honestly about what is in our products, so you don’t have to learn to speak the language of ‘ingredientso’ to understand what you’re buying! Then you can choose what’s right for you.
