Under what circumstances did you meet with an organic cosmetics?
I’m living a healthy lifestyle for several years. I go in for sports. . I do not eat unhealthy food.
I also used different cosmetics to maintain a balance and skin tone. But I did not receive the required quality.I never economized on myself and I worried about the result most of all. But once I had an allergy and I became interested in naturalness of cosmetics which I buy. I chose organic cosmetics as I’m always worried about the environment and the health of our nation.
What is the main feature of this product? How can I identify organic cosmetics?
All the ingredients are absolutely natural and harmless. In organic production there is no”chemistry”. Components for such cosmetics are grown in ecologically clean areas, without nitrates and pesticides.
And organic of this cosmetics is depend on the location, conditions and methods of production. Farmers who want to grow these ingredients should confirm that they don’t use chemical fertilizers within 3 years.
There are some international organizations, who can confirm organicity of cosmetics. They are watching in order to control the consisting of all-natural ingredients in every product. These organizations print their badge on the product, confirming that cosmetics is organic.
What should I look for when choosing cosmetics?
Before buying you should always pay attention to the composition, terms of storage and international marks certification, if it is organic cosmetics. I know many producers who say that their cosmetics is natural.
But this is only PR.
The emphasis on the ”naturalness” is only to get new customers, and to get profit as a result.
Our skin is treated, nourished, moisturized not by slogans on labels, but by valuable components, which are contained in the products.
organic cosmetics must be consisted of oils, juices, purified and fortified water.
Is organic cosmetics popular in Ukraine?
In the last few years has become a tendency for all natural in our country. TV programs, which tell about the right products, useful ingredients, etc. are showing on TV. For example “Rules of Life” on the STB, in which I participated. Have appeared the concept of a healthy lifestyle, and as a result - people are becoming more literate in questions concerning their health.
How did you come to create an online store? What is the main feature of iHarmony?
iHarmony was created to help others to care about the health and environment . In the “iHarmony” presented only the leading brands which have earned recognition in the world and have received international quality certification. The composition of the products, presented in iHarmony consists of organic oils, plant extracts, juices, for example, aloe vera, vitamin complexes and other natural components.
The concept of my store is that organic cosmetics must be available for all. We want organic and natural cosmetics are available in Ukraine. In our shop low prices, because we work directly with manufacturers.
