Natural plant extracts: a return to our roots
Among the most sought-after cosmetic ingredients, plant extracts hold a prominent place. Indeed, aloe vera, green tea, calendula, and many other plants are particularly prized for their moisturizing, soothing, and antioxidant properties. Aloe vera, for example, has a high content of vitamins and amino acids, making it a valuable ally for sensitive or irritated skin.
En tant que laboratoire cosmétique en Charente-Maritime, chez Costomise, nous choisissons prioritairement des extraits végétaux issus de l’agriculture biologique, favorisant ainsi des produits sains et respectueux de l’environnement !
Vegetable oils: nourishing treasures for the skin
Vegetable oils, whether argan, jojoba or rosehip, are also essential cosmetic ingredients in current cosmetic care.
Reconnues pour leurs propriétés nourrissantes et réparatrices, elles sont parfaitement adaptées aux peaux sèches et déshydratées. L’huile d’argan, riche en acides gras essentiels et en vitamine E, est particulièrement utilisée pour sa capacité à restaurer l’élasticité de la peau tout en la protégeant des agressions extérieures.

Anti-aging ingredients are among the most sought-after cosmetic ingredients
Les consommateurs à la recherche de solutions anti-âge se tournent de plus en plus vers des ingrédients spécifiques tels que l’acide hyaluronique et la vitamine C.
Hyaluronic acid is known for its ability to deeply hydrate and plump the skin, while vitamin C provides a natural radiance to the complexion by fighting free radicals. These cosmetic ingredients help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and maintain toned, glowing skin.
That is why it is important to incorporate these active ingredients into each formulation in order to offer effective and respectful care for even the most fragile skin.
Probiotics: a shield for the skin!
Les probiotiques font également partie des ingrédients cosmétiques les plus recherchés si ce n’est dire en pleine expansion. Ces micro-organismes vivants, souvent utilisés pour renforcer la flore intestinale, sont désormais plébiscités pour leurs bienfaits sur la peau.
By restoring the natural balance of the skin microbiome, probiotics help reduce inflammation and protect the skin against external aggressions.
If you want a cosmetic product that is both healthy and effective, then don't hesitate to incorporate probiotics into some of your formulas to offer natural protection to sensitive or redness-prone skin.
Natural butters: rich and creamy skincare
Natural butters, such as shea butter and cocoa butter, are also key cosmetic ingredients in natural cosmetics.
Shea butter, for example, is known for its moisturizing and regenerating properties, in addition to being rich in vitamins A, D, E and F.
Les beurres naturels apportent une texture riche et onctueuse aux soins, idéale pour nourrir et adoucir la peau, particulièrement en période hivernale ou pour les peaux sèches.
Cocoa butter, meanwhile, is a powerful moisturizer and protector that helps maintain skin elasticity while protecting it from external aggressions.
Marine extracts: a wave of benefits for the skin
Marine extracts, such as spirulina algae and marine collagen, are also experiencing growing popularity in the field of skincare.
Rich in minerals, vitamins and antioxidants, spirulina is particularly sought after for its ability to revitalize and tone the skin, providing a natural glow.
Marine collagen is prized for its role in skin firmness and elasticity, thus helping to prevent sagging skin.
Chez Costomise, nous pouvons intégrer ces trésors marins dans certaines de nos formules pour offrir une efficacité naturelle issue des profondeurs de l’océan.
Most sought-after cosmetic ingredients: mineral powders
Mineral powders, such as clay, zinc and mica, are also becoming increasingly popular in cosmetics, particularly for makeup and complexion care products.
Clay, for example, is used for its purifying and mattifying properties, ideal for combination to oily skin.
Zinc is known for its soothing and restorative properties, and is often included in skincare products for blemish-prone skin. Mineral powders offer a natural and gentle alternative to conventional makeup, respecting the skin while enhancing its appearance.
