I think one of the questions that comes up most often during my workshops – where can you buy all the ingredients to make homemade cosmetics?

It is true that it is important to find the right suppliers/stores in order to have quality natural cosmetic products.  It is possible to find the ingredients to make your own cosmetics in many organic stores (Biocoop, Naturalia, etc.) which have grown a lot in recent years.

When choosing your natural products, above all, favor quality ingredients, from French brands, as much as possible. Do not take products that have already been processed because they will lose part of their properties and the goal is to benefit as much as possible.

Choose durable dark glass packaging to keep your products for the longest time. In fact, homemade cosmetics are best stored away from light.
