Why your skin loves organic skincare

01. Organic treatments respect the natural fragility of your skin

Treatments made with organic ingredients are gentle (in general), while products formulated with petrochemical derivatives irritate the skin or unbalance it in the long term. In organic cosmetics, the surfactants are gentle and the active ingredients mainly come from vegetable oils, sugars from fruits, plant extracts, etc. Enough to blend into the skin without attacking it and respecting its composition. This softness explains, for example, that an organic shampoo foams less than a conventional shampoo because this profusion of foam is only due to the petrochemical ingredients.

02. Organic care preserves your health immediately (and for afterwards).

Organic treatments are free of pesticides, fertilizers and heavy chemicals that can cause short and long-term damage to the body. We do not sufficiently measure the impact of these products on our health (hormonal upheavals, contemporary illnesses, etc.). However, the skin is a sponge that absorbs everything. Not only does organic certification protect our skin, but it also protects that of our babies and children, who are constantly in contact with our face, our hair, our hands. This is even more convincing for pregnant women who, by applying endocrine disruptors to their skin via pesticides and other chemical components present in their care, can unknowingly impact the development and future health of their baby during pregnancy. .

03. Organic treatments leave just enough on the skin.

Developing a treatment with natural and organic ingredients means going to the essentials and only providing the skin with what it needs and what it will be able to metabolize. This is not the case with the chemical components present in profusion in conventional cosmetics, which the skin cannot eliminate and which are therefore stored in the tissues. In the very composition of organic ingredients, there are more fundamental nutrients for the skin. To support its vital functions, its hydration level and its natural protective barrier, the skin needs these vitamins, antioxidants, trace elements, amino acids and fatty acids. All these nutrients are found in large quantities and are of good quality in natural organic products.

04. Organic treatments are better assimilated…and therefore more effective.

Natural ingredients have similarities to the natural constituents of the skin. A relationship that the epidermis recognizes and which therefore promotes the penetration of the treatment at the time of application. Organic products work on the same model as homeopathy: the results will perhaps take a little longer to be felt but they will act over time and in a much deeper way by strengthening the skin's natural defenses.

05. Organic skincare is going slowly but surely.


Slow beauty has this undeniable quality of considering that the skin is a living organism that we nourish over the long term with ingredients that help it to self-protect. This is exactly what organic ingredients help with. Unlike products heavy in chemical components, they do not seek to produce a “wow” effect which, in the long term, will damage the epidermis. They are more part of a deep and global approach to restoration by providing the skin, day by day, with all the weapons to defend itself from external aggressors, regain balance and heal itself from the inside.


At Apicia, all our products are 100% natural and certified organic. For us, natural and organic beauty is part of a global approach to quality, efficiency, health and of course, environmental protection. It’s a real plebiscite for a way of consuming that respects living things.
