Those used by Alchimia Natura
for the XENIA line
Only dermocompatible, similar to the skin,
vegetable and natural oils and waxes
Eco-compatible vegetable emulsifying
agents which are gentle on the skin
We use vegetable mother tinctures, bud
extracts, extracts of officinal plants and
fruits in oil, water, vegetable glycerin, or
dry titrated extracts of herbs, vitamins
and other active ingredients, always of
vegetable origin. High concentration of
active ingredients for greater effectiveness
and reliability
Only 100% natural essential oils so that
our cosmetics are not only fragranced, but
also have greater cosmetic properties due
to the action of the essential oils
Gentle preservatives, often adopted for
alimentary use, food-grade neutral spirit,
glycinates, natural antioxidants, essential
oils
As they contain only natural and food-grade
bio-colorings, our creams may slightly differ
in colour from one batch to the next because
we use only natural substances, and
therefore one of a kind, such as blueberries
that, depending on when they are harvested,
the climate and the exact place where they
grew, give different pink-violet shades to
the cosmetics, which become unique and
unrepeatable
Surface-active agents of vegetable
origin (from coconut, wheat, sugar),
gentle on the skin, with a high degree of
biodegradability
Only naturally photoprotective vegetable
and mineral raw materials such as zinc
oxide and titanium dioxide
We prefer glass whenever possible;
otherwise we use eco-compatible plastics,
paper and cloth bags (reusable) for
packaging the products
Those used by traditional cosmetics
Low-cost mineral oils and waxes (derived from
oil) that cover the skin with a film that tends to
clog the pores and alter the natural processes
of the skin and perspiration.
Synthetic emulsifying agents, often containing
PEG (derived from ethylene oxide) that are
more aggressive on the skin.
Extracts in propylene glycol (a by-product of the
potentially sensitizing oil), animal by-products,
active ingredients of synthetic origin, low
concentrations of active ingredients to keep
product production economical.
Synthetic fragrances, often allergenic, with no
cosmetic properties.
Aggressive preservatives, often formaldehyde
releasers that generate allergies and dermatitis
with increasing frequency.
Synthetic colorants can cause allergies and
sensitization of the skin, verified with a test on
the skin.
Aggressive surface-active agents that remove
too much grease, like Sodium lauryl sulfate and
others which are partially derived from oil, often
cause irritation and excessive dryness.
Chemical sunscreens that are potentially
sensitizing.
Often plastics that are not eco-compatible,
which cause environmental pollution.
