The Natural Cosmeceutical

Having worked in both the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries for over 15 years I can tell you they are very different. Cosmetics have always been considered to be aesthetic, with their only real benefit of delivering limited hydration to the skin's outer layers upon application. Pharmaceuticals however, are subject to clinical trials and stringent testing specifications before any claims can be made. In recent years due to the discovery of many effective active ingredients and technological advances in delivery systems, thanks predominantly to the pharmaceutical industry, many cosmetics have been transformed into cosmeceuticals. As the name suggests, cosmeceuticals are basically the coming together of the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries to create products with proven active ingredients in superior formulations to deliver real results for conditions including anti-aging, hydration, moisturisation, pigmentation and various skin conditions.

Due to their ingredients and superior formulations, cosmeceuticals are now easily absorbed deep into the skin's layers where they can offer real benefits. Anti-Aging and Anti-Oxidant ingredients such as Alpha Lipoic Acid, Green tea, Vitamins A, C and E and Hyaluronic acid present in high concentrations work synergistically to deliver the desired results. Not only are Ecotanicals products' cosmeceutical, but they are also natural. Hence they have been referred to as "The Natural Cosmeceutical". Due to the release of many "placebo type" natural products over the years, there is a perception in the market place that natural products are ineffective and for a product to work it must contain harmful chemicals. This is no longer the case and finally we have developed highly effective products which deliver real results and are actually good for you. Thanks to the cosmeceutical.
