The concept of natural can be understood in very different ways and has no generally accepted (legal) definition. Natural cosmetics represent an alternative to conventional cosmetic products, in which completely synthetic ingredients typically prevail. Ingredients of natural origin have proven physiological and cosmetic effects. However, generalizing the concept that natural ingredients are better for the skin simply because they come from nature has no scientific rationale.
Progress in natural cosmetics is moving in the direction of scientific approaches. Cosmetically active ingredients of natural origin have become the cornerstone of evidence-based formulating in terms of cosmetic effects and successful marketing. However, many aspects of quality must be considered to achieve high-performing cosmetics.
For that reason the Modern CosmEthics Team organized 1st live webinar in which it was presented:
- Different criteria for defining natural cosmetics
- Basic physiology of the skin
- Examples of ‘good’ and ‘bad’ natural ingredients from our skin’s point of view
- Examples of appropriately and poorly used cosmetically active ingredients in formulations
Modern CosmEthics is an association that builds and promotes the culture of natural, ethical and cosmetically active products through the CosmEthically ACTIVE certificate. The association also provides evidence-based information and educates users about cosmetic ingredients of natural origin through the Modern Cosmetics book.

Nowadays there are too many webinars, zoom meetings etc. I will appreciate if there will be a possibility to be able to get the recorder webinar so that I can see it in my free time.
Many thanks

Hi , I am Shandra , a year ago I brought this book, I haven’t open it yet. But I am anxiously looking foreword to ,what is coming up next..
I can’t wait
Super excited to learn about this topic.
I’m excited about this event & the book (I’ve had for around 6 months is fantastic, excellent information detailed in it.
Hope you enjoyed the webinar. 🙂
It would be interesting (and beneficial for consumers) to learn how to read cosmetic lables of ingredients. So this is a suggestion for next Webinar to review couple of cosmetic products (e.g. hampoo, cream, lip balms, body lotion etc.) And to clarify what are the ingredients there and what they mean.
Thank you! Great idea!
Thank you so much for the first webinar!! The presentation was excellent with such interesting information! I can’t wait to have my book, I’m so excited!
