Organic cosmetics aren't just a trendy label — they're a methodology
Organic cosmetics are cosmetics whose plant ingredients are grown by the rules of organic farming, without synthetic pesticides, and processed so the plant's active compounds are retained. Genuine organic cosmetics carry an organic mark and certificate on the packaging, and their ingredients are traceable from the field to the finished product.
What organic cosmetics really are
Organic cosmetics are cosmetics in which the plant raw materials are grown using organic farming methods. That means soil free of synthetic pesticides, without chemical enhancers and without artificially forcing growth. When a plant develops at its natural pace, it builds up the full range of essential oils, antioxidants and trace elements that we later find in the finished product.
That's why organic cosmetics aren't just a marketing buzzword. They describe a whole chain of decisions in which every step protects the plant's properties. This is also the difference between natural cosmetics and bio cosmetics that stand behind their word with a certificate.
Organic cosmetics vs conventional
The very same herb can give a completely different result depending on how it's grown. Here's where the difference lies:
That's why a bio product and a conventional product carrying the same herb name are not the same thing. The difference lies in the concentration of valuable ingredients and in the absence of unwanted residues.
One step further: the secret we add
Genuine organic cosmetics don't stop at clean soil. In our family we take one more step that most brands skip, and that's exactly what sets us apart.
We gather the nettle during the full moon, when it's at its most potent and its properties are strongest, and we spray our fields with the resulting brew several times a year. It's care that takes time and can't be rushed, but it's the reason our organic cosmetics stay truly clean.

The awards and family behind InaEssentials
Behind every bottle of organic cosmetics stands a real family and years of work. It all began back in 2001 in the small town of Panagyurishte, where our family — rather adventurously — planted its first 5 decares of lavender and rose crops.
With thousands of happy customers, the family has also earned national awards
These honours are recognition of something simple: organic cosmetics made honestly, from our own fields and with care at every step.
