Kaum etwas ist so vielseitig wie die Welt der Duft- und Aromastoffe: Über 3.000 verschiedene sind es – die meisten davon allerdings synthetisch. Und darauf solltet Ihr dringend verzichten, ganz besonders in Eurer Beauty-Routine! Hier erfahrt Ihr, warum synthetische Duftstoffe bedenklich sind.
Elderberry is incredibly diverse: it boosts your immune system, is a sweet treat and a raw material for natural cosmetics. BIRKENSTOCK NATURAL SKIN CARE uses its skincare talents in the NATURAL COMFORT line and thereby ensures that your feet are beautiful and soft.
Antioxidants and vitamin E are the best reasons why prickly pear oil is the perfect anti-aging ingredient. The presumably most expensive oil in the world definitely has a lot to offer when it comes to slowing down the natural aging of the skin. But there’s more to it than that.
It’s one of the heroes in the new BIRKENSTOCK NATURAL SKIN CARE Calming Face Oil: the Inca nut. The gentle Inca Inchi oil does not only mitigate irritations, it also activates new renewal mechanisms and makes the skin more elastic and radiant.
Natural, well-tolerated and sustainable: natural cosmetics offer many good reasons to avoid chemical ingredients. But are the products effective? Can organic beauty products really reduce wrinkles, hydrate the skin and visibly improve your complexion?

Forever and always. That’s a promise which cosmetic products simply can’t keep: no formulation can be used indefinitely. Preservation is necessary in order to maintain the quality and efficacy of the raw materials contained in a product. But did you know that parabens, for example, do not only keep germs at bay but also come with questionable disadvantages?
Constant reapplying and potential for addiction: lip care does not exactly have the best reputation. However, side effects such as these are merely due to conventional formulations and the real care effect falls by the wayside. Lips need care – that’s a fact. We will tell you, what exactly your lips need.
We cannot imagine cosmetics without them: oils. They are part of almost every formulation and serve as a basis as well as a nourishing ingredient for the skin. But not every oil is the same… While mineral oil is a typical ingredient in conventional cosmetics, natural cosmetic products contain a whole variety of plant-based oils. We will tell you all about the ups and downs.
For quite a few people, it is still the epitome of a good cleansing product: creamy lather. However, the lather does not necessarily mean that the product is effective. Surfactants – that’s the professional term for these detergent substances – can form small or large amounts of lather. They can be of natural origin or be produced chemically. What do you think: do they all have a clean slate?
