Natural herbal cosmetics. Review of Russian-made organic cosmetics brands

The concept of the word "cosmetics" came to us from Greece and literally translates as "experienced in decorating." For the first time this term was used back in 1867 during the first exhibition of perfumery and soap industry in Paris. Since then, cosmetics have confidently become our companions, without which not a single person can do. With the help of cosmetics we take care of nails, hair, face and body skin. Most cosmetologists use cosmetics made from natural ingredients in their work, they are even often made by hand. The matter, of course, is not very simple, and the products are quite expensive. An alternative is made up of ready-made cosmetics made on natural basis, which are sold in general availability on store shelves. What cosmetics are considered the best in quality and naturalness? This is what will be discussed in our article.

What to look for when choosing cosmetics?

Many women and girls who do not visit beauty parlors are guided by the most advertised product when choosing cosmetics. Of course, advertising is the engine of trade, but you should not blindly trust everything that is said about this product. There is also an opinion that good and high-quality cosmetics must be expensive. This is mistake. After all, the price of cosmetic products is based not only on the components used for its production, but also on the cost of an advertising campaign for a particular product. Therefore, very often we are faced with the fact that advertised cosmetics sometimes do not meet expectations and do not cover the funds that were spent on its purchase.

Brands are market leaders

If we talk about the rating of natural cosmetics, then such studies are often carried out by the independent Russian Scientific Cosmetological Society. This rating was created on the basis of several types of research cosmetic products different brands. Particular attention was paid to the following criteria in the tests:

1) Generation number - this indicator determines the presence or absence of the chemical nature of preservatives;
2) the indicator of chemicalization Kx - the level of the indicator determines the degree of the presence of chemical components in cosmetics (from 0 to 100).

In addition, all products on the cosmetic market can be divided into different categories... For example, mass-market cosmetics. At cost, it is the cheapest and most affordable for all segments of the population. But there is another strict rule here, which says that high-quality cosmetics cannot be cheap. The criteria for evaluating inexpensive cosmetics are as follows:

- product shelf life;
- aggressive or massive advertising;
- the presence of active flavors.

In the modern market of cosmetic products, professional cosmetics, which are often used in specialized salons, also occupy a confident place. As a rule, such funds provide incredible effect on skin, hair, or nails. This is due to the presence in the composition of the substance active ingredients... But, often, this effect passes quickly. Therefore, one-time clients with a good income become regular customers beauty salons with above average cost of services.

Having analyzed several factors affecting this rating, we have selected several brands that produce natural cosmetics of various price category:

- Mirra, Mirra-M, Mirra-Lux
- Glorion, Gloris Russia
- Weleda
- Yves-rocher
— Green mama
- Dr. Haushka
- Kamill
- Dzintars
- Decleor
- Bark
- L'AMBRE Limited
- Dove
- Londa

This is roughly what the top ten brands of cosmetics manufacturers look like in terms of quality and naturalness. It should be noted that such well-known brands as, for example, Vichy, Mary kay, Christian Dior, Max Factor, Maybelline, Lancome and others are far from the first positions in the ranking. This is not anti-advertising, but draw your own conclusions.

New brands in the segment

"Velvet hands"

The main profile of the brand is hand creams. Surely you, your mother, friend or colleague had such a product. By the way, we too

Today, it is very difficult to meet a person who does not use this or that cosmetic product. Moreover, we can say with confidence that cosmetics have taken a firm place in the life of not only women, but children and, more recently, men.

Where and how did cosmetics come from and why is it needed? During excavations, archaeologists discovered that cosmetics were known as far back as Ancient Egypt. Already in those days, people painted lips and eyelids, blushed cheeks, covered the body and hair with various fragrant oils. This is confirmed by the famous Ebers Papyrus, published in the 19th century by the Egyptologist Georg Ebers. The papyrus contained information on how to dye hair, accelerate its growth, smooth out wrinkles, etc. In Egypt, the first reference book on cosmetics, compiled by Cleopatra (1st century BC), was found. His recipes are still relevant in our time.

The father of medicine Hippocrates and his follower Diocles recommended ointments and masks to soften the skin. The latter even wrote a book where he recommended how to take care of eyes, face skin, nails, teeth, hair with preparations prepared from plant materials.

However, the first creator cosmetic recipes according to other sources, Popey, the wife of the ancient Roman monarch Nero, is considered. She was a lover of all kinds fragrant oils, paints, ointments, balms, aromatic baths, etc. From her we learned how to dye black hair into blonde. So, on her advice, you need to wipe your hair with a sponge soaked in a mixture of beech tree ash and goat's milk, and then substitute it for discoloration in the sun.

So from ancient times, herbal cosmetics on a plant basis have survived to this day. Of course, between the "first" and modern means there are significant differences, but the essence of their use lies in one thing: "Give yourself an amazing appearance».

Previously, the skin care products for the body, hands and face were of purely natural origin and did not differ by class. V modern cosmetology absolutely all creams, ointments, lotions, etc. are divided into types. Although literally a decade ago, store shelves in our country could not boast of an abundance of cosmetics.

In order to find the right cream, it was necessary to spend a lot of time and effort. Now, if you are sure of what product you need, then you can safely go to any store and buy it. If you are in doubt with the choice of cosmetics, then you can go to a specialized beauty salon, store or supermarket. There, experts will answer all your questions and help you choose the remedy that is suitable for your body. If you do not have a minute of free time, then you can use online stores, companies and couriers who will advise and suggest the cream, balm, etc. you need.

Nowadays, the beauty industry is so developed that there are different remedies not only for each individual part of the body, but also for different age categories... In addition, cosmetics differ in types, among which one of the most popular is herbal.

Why are plant-based green cosmetics popular?

The fact is that the popularity of natural cosmetics at one time was increased by the discovery of phytoestrogens in plants, that is, hormones similar to female sex hormones. Thanks to them and the regular use of "green" cosmetics, it is possible to slow down the aging of the skin. And all because flavonoids and plant estrogens help the synthesis of elastin and collagen in the skin, neutralize free radicals, whiten the skin, treat rosacea and cellulite.

Flavonoids are components of many plants. They normalize protein and fat metabolism in cells, relieve inflammation. Rutin and quercitin are 50 times more active than vitamin E and 20 times more active than vitamin C. Chlorophyll has excellent antiseptic and wound healing properties. Tannins obtained from the bark have a bactericidal, antifungal and astringent effect. Rowan, Chinese lemongrass, spruce, juniper, alder, cedar, blueberry bird cherry are rich in tannins. Finally, herbs are rich in minerals and vitamins. And for fading and dry skin, nutrition with vitamin A is very important, which is found in mountain ash, rose hips, nettles, sea buckthorn, calendula, chamomile or yarrow. Vitamin C is generally a commonly found vitamin in berries and fruits. Silicon, useful for maintaining normal skin tone, is abundant in nettles, horsetails, yarrow and larch.

How to choose “green” herbal cosmetics?
1. When choosing herbal cosmetics, you must first look at the appearance: in particular, the color. remember, that natural remedy never has color and cannot be pearlescent. If you have a blue shampoo or cream in front of you, then with 100% certainty you can assume the presence of a dye. However, modern phytocosmetics presuppose the content of valuable plants in it only up to 70%.
2. If you did not find anything suspicious in the color of the cosmetic product, try to inhale its smell. It should not be harsh and smell like herbs or drugs.
3. The next step in choosing herbal products is to study its composition. If it is indicated that the product contains a mineral oil, then you should not purchase such a product - it is not natural.
4. Please note that real plant-based cosmetics do not contain any preservatives and have a shelf life of no more than 1 year.
5. Be sure to pay attention to the packaging. The wider the “throat” of the container, the more likely the cream contains more preservatives.

Very often, for economic reasons, the manufacturer introduces one plant into the composition, adds many chemicals, and writes on the packaging that this is a natural remedy. Therefore, be especially careful when choosing cosmetics, purchase it from trusted sellers and manufacturers.

Why are natural cosmetics better than artificial ones?
Man is a child of nature. That is why herbal cosmetics are much closer to our body than synthetic ones. In addition, in natural products, the active substances have an optimal concentration, due to which they act on the skin of the body gently, but at the same time effectively. In addition, in the "green" cosmetics contains a whole complex of plants that mutually complement and enhance each other's action.

Remember that it is not recommended to select plant-based products on your own. It is better to consult a cosmetologist who will listen to you, assess the situation and select the natural remedies that are suitable for you.

Many do not work well with Russian cosmetics: there is still a strong belief that affordable cosmetics are always worse than expensive ones, and that domestically produced goods are often inferior in quality to imported ones (at least, they are accustomed to think so). We think that Russian brands also deserve attention, so we have chosen 45 proven products, with which it is not scary to start acquaintance with them.

Masha Vorslav

Teana


Art-Visage


Art-Visage is one of the most famous Russian brands decorative cosmetics, which, perhaps, can be forgiven shamelessly copied from Giorgio armani logo (or not). Its main feature is making cosmetics to order: if you have been looking for green lip gloss, yellow lipstick or shadows of a special shade for a long time, you can contact the Art-Visage laboratory and get what you are looking for for 400–450 rubles. With already ready-made means the brand is also in complete order: the online store has everything for the most complex makeup.

Kleona


Like many others Russian manufacturers, Kleona relies on naturalness and avoids synthetic components(if they still got to a particular bank, they warn about it). Representatives of the brand are not lazy to talk with customers and periodically explain the properties of parabens, talk about the quality of essential oils and tell why they do not test products on animals. The assortment is mostly made up of simple and not-so-great cleansers and inexpensive creams for different skin types.

Natura Siberica


Shampoos, masks and Natura creams Siberica is sold at every step not only in Russia, but also abroad (the brand is almost more popular there). What is nice is that the company does not stand still and constantly issues new products and whole lines that go with a bang, and even opens spa centers. By the way, not so long ago she established the production of decorative cosmetics - it arrived in the shelf of organic mascaras, lipsticks and shadows.

GreenLab


Another young and up-and-coming brand that aims to embrace everything at once. GreenLab still has five tentacles, that is, divisions: Dr. Kozhevatkin - for solving specific problems like dehydration and loss of skin tone; GreenLab Little produces oils, foams, shampoos and powders for children; GreenLabOrg, as you might guess, is organic cosmetics, and HEADDRESS is a product for basic hair care and treatment. The fifth specialization is rather unexpected: Healing Derm is a complex of skin care products for bedridden patients.

What to buy:

working on two fronts concentrate serum for hair growth HEADDRESS "Nutrition and hydration"; hair growth mask HEADDRESS; baby cream-foam with panthenol GreenLab Little, which is suitable not only for children, but also for adults with sensitive skin.

"Bark"


Cora is doing well: just a couple of years ago, those who knew about this inexpensive and extremely effective domestic brand could look for some kind of mask with acids in the daytime with fire, and now Cora is sold in almost every pharmacy and large supermarket. The company explains the effectiveness of its products by the loyalty to the principles developed: a high content of plant extracts, the use of mineral components, essential oils and the choice of a fatty base for most products.

Organic shop


Elegant packaging and dangerously mouth-watering fragrances are, perhaps, the quintessence of Organic Shop. The brand has a lot of body products: creams, butters, scrubs, mousses and more. Trying them for one person is not that impossible, but probably not necessary - only if you are not ready to donate half of the bathroom to banks. On the other hand, if you are one of those who are too lazy to smear with body cream all the time, Organic Shop products may be just right - the smell and overall cheerful appearance are tempting to open the cans several times a day.

"Clean line"


It's embarrassing to even talk about this company, but you can't do without it. We all remember about shampoos that "80% consist of a decoction of medicinal herbs", but " Clean line"Stepped forward a long time ago. The brand still has basic products like scrubs, face gels and the same shampoos, but more timely ones have appeared, for example, the same BB-cream (which is used as an example even for the extremely successful Garnier).

"Recipes of grandmother Agafia"


At some point, the brand's business improved so much that it split into several "Agafias"; for convenience, we have brought everything into one point. The brand has a lot of successful funds, and it does not stall and slowly develops new horizons (recently, for example, it has established the production of excellent toothpastes). He does not ignore the heart-warming theme of the bathhouse either, but plays it with dignity: he does not just release the fifth version of the successful mild soap, but sorts familiar products into convenient portioned packages.

"Taiga herbalist"


If it is possible to divide all Russian cosmetics into types, one of the brightest will be the bath brand. On the one hand, there is never a lot of soap and scrubs, but on the other hand, the same bars and bottles with the same aromas and almost the same presentation bring death longing. It is all the more interesting to get acquainted with companies that manage to stand out even in this niche. "Taiga herbalist" seems to be doing everything the same as the others, but competently balances its Russianness with really interesting means.

Planeta organica


The moderately positive and extremely open brand Planeta Organica does not seem to hide anything from buyers: it tells everything about the main ingredients, reveals the basic values ​​of the company and even describes the details of expeditions for raw materials. Such activity is reflected favorably on products: such a choice natural oils and the means based on them are offered only by Natura Siberica, but Planeta Organica, even with such a powerful competitor, remains recognizable.

"Black Pearl"


“Black Pearl” is successfully rejuvenated and is no longer perceived as cosmetics only for mature skin. This was facilitated by the choice of new brand ambassadors (a recent novelty is represented, for example, by Liza Boyarskaya), and the reversal of the assortment towards the modern buyer who wants an excellent foundation, moisturizer, and oil for washing (and good lotion for the body, he would also not hurt).

Organic therapy


The cute tubes of Organic Therapy are the work of the First Solution company, which has more than a dozen recognizable Russian brands on its account (it all started in 2002 with Grandmother Agafia's Recipes). There are no complaints about the newcomer, except that the brand strongly speculates on the consumer's interest in everything natural: Organic Therapy products cannot be called organic (there is no approval from a certifying organization), but you can write the cherished word on the package if at least one ingredient meets the requirements. However, Organic Therapy offers simple solutions daily tasks at humane prices and nice looking.

Another rare decorative stamp... In general, it gives the impression of teenage cosmetics, but who said that this is bad. To stands with Eva Mosaic it is reasonable to handle when you need simple understandable things like regular mascara for eyelashes or pencil under new lipstick... At the same time, if you have long wanted to try something strange by your standards, but did not want to spend money, delving into the Eva Mosaic bottles will be useful.
