Organic Certification and miessence®

miessence® is currently the only skin care product on the planet that has submitted to, and complies with, the rigorous processing and labeling requirements for certified organic food products. Be concerned about the impact that toxic chemicals and pollutants have on our health, our communities and our planet. Making the right choices will bring health and wellness.
 

Keeping toxic and persistent chemicals out of the environment helps us leave a healthy and safe planet for future generations. We need to stop using harmful chemicals and instead make effective use of the world’s natural resources. Organic living is about working in harmony with, and not against, nature. Certified Organic Products are grown and processed without the use of synthetic chemicals, fertilisers, or GMO's. Avoid as many toxic chemicals as you can. Make a positive difference to your own health by choosing organic and natural personal care and skin care products.
 

International Organic Certifications

Currently, body care products are not required to comply with the stringent organic food standards maintained by certification bodies such as the BFA and NASAA in Australia and the USDA in America, hence the plethora of so many "organic" body care products now on the market.

 

Since water is the primary ingredient in many cosmetics, some manufacturers are claiming to use organic hydrosols, or floral water, to green wash their products and make organic label claims whilst using the same synthetic toxic ingredients that would NEVER be allowed in organic food products. We believe this practice has the potential to destroy the integrity of the organic name.

 

There are two levels of certification for organic food products that miessence® skin care products comply with:
