Excellent information! From experience, if one wants a truly 100% natural skincare product, it has to be made at home and will last only 6 months.
Not necessarily; when formulated carefully with stability and other shelf life considerations taken into account, relevant to the materials used, you can get formulations with 2-3 year shelf lives - as with any cosmetic product/formula, proper stability testing should be carried out regardless of whether its natural or not. Not achieving at least 2 years shelf life would make it hard to achieve good economies of scale too, so always formulate to achieve a 2 year shelf life at minimum, and if it will expire sooner mark the product. Remember, a lot of consumers have cosmetic products in their cupboards far beyond 6 months after purchase, and it is a company responsibility to ensure safe use as directed, including shelf life considerations if required! Happy formulating :)

I'm a bit confused about when Vitamin E (tocopherol) can be deemed natural or not.
I guess also there is an issue in that in many jurisdictions of consumer/cosmetics law the term 'natural' doesn't have a formal definition (like in the EU I believe?)?. I think that the way Belinda presents it here is "how would an industry professional or science trained person understand the term 'natural' vs 'synthetic'?", "what is the 'spirit' of genuine 'natural' claims?" etc. Some products may ostensible be natural, break this spirit of 'what is natural' by including Isopropyl myristatef or example, but not break any laws or regulations with said claim.
Hi Night Train, every company should be providing 'truth in marketing' which is why I refer back to what Certifiers consider 'natural' or suitable to use. If there is a synthetic element remaining in the product (either from processing or from inputs) then it should never be represented as truly natural. There are natural sources of vitamin E and synthetic sources - so check with your supplier if naturally derived is important in your formulations. And never claim something as 'all natural' if it contains synthetic materials from the start, or residual from processing. Hope this helps, happy formulating!
@@theinstituteofpersonalcare6401 I really enjoyed this video and information!! THANK YOU =).. would you be willing to share some of the 100% natural ingredients we can use to preserve cosmetics? I make my own natural cosmetics at home but I haven't added any preservatives to them. I have read that certain formulas do not need preservatives if they don't contain water. I need to find ways to preserve my cosmetics =)
You covered hydrogenated vegetable oils and deemed these as "natural." Would have been interested to see you include saponification.

Hi Mike, I didn't cover saponification because if you start with vegetable oils and use NaOH or KOH it is considered a natural process - consumers and certifiers alike always consider vegetable soaps to be 'natural'. I was trying to cover some of the processing that people don't really understand and terminology they wouldn't be familiar with. Hope this helps explain why! Happy formulating :)
As a manufacturer how can you make sure the ingredients provided are in fact natural when the extraction information is not always shared?
demand it from your suppliers and if they are not willing to share, then find better and more transparent suppliers.
I agree, it is really sad but most companies are not so transparent.
Very simply, before buying you must demand a proper Certificate of Analysis plus details of extraction and source. If this information is not provided, then look for another supplier.

Hi Juliana, ONLY buy from suppliers willing to provide you with the full compositional information - there are plenty of suppliers, ONLY use ones that will supply you with this information otherwise if they won't, they're either trying to hide something or don't know enough to know that is expected! In either case, not a suitable supplier in my book! Happy formulating.
Of course, for many ingredients there are not multiple suppliers.
Thank you for the video ❤️ Discussing about natural, do you think we should mandatorily comply with ISO 16128-2 : 2017? It is about Guidelines for Natural and Organic Cosmetic Ingredient. Look forward your insight too about this.. Thank you 😃😊❤️
If you want to claim 'all natural' then all of your materials/inputs should be natural/naturally derived (including actives and preservatives) whether you comply with a standard or certifier or not. That is 'truth in labelling'. If you want to market organic products/products that are 'mostly' organic or if that philosophy is important to you/your consumer, then my recommendation is that you should go through certification so that consumers can SEE (with your logo) that you are truly organic compared to others who claim 'organic' content without the certification. To go organic properly is a significant effort so you may as well be certified. Formulating natural is not as hard just make sure you aren't claiming your product is all natural if you have synthetic or nature identical (still synthetic!) ingredients present. I hope this helps, happy formulating!
@@theinstituteofpersonalcare6401 Thank you very much ! ❤️ Very clear.
Is there a truly natural substitute solubilizer for polysorbate 80 (for use in rinse off cleansing oils)?
Yes please watch this video: th-cam.com/video/kNbgHvi_lqM/w-d-xo.html and I have a part 2 of this video with newer solubilisers coming out soon... stay tuned!
I am still confused 😐
