Dear Kosterina Family,
In a world filled with skincare products promising miracles in a bottle, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. But here's the truth: sometimes, the simplest, purest of ingredients are the most effective. By harnessing the power of the natural ingredients that grow around us, we can provide our skin with the love and care it deserves, without the unnecessary additives or fillers.
What makes skincare “clean”?
While there isn’t a universally-accepted definition of “clean” in the skincare world, we interpret it as a commitment to real ingredients, using the Credo definition as a guide. We carefully formulate each of our products without certain ingredients that might irritate or disrupt our skin’s delicate barrier. Ingredients like parabens, sulfates, phthalates, synthetic fragrances, and other synthetic chemicals can often do more bad than good for our skin.
Should we make the switch to clean skincare?
Gentle yet Effective: Unlike synthetic ingredients that can strip your skin of its natural oils and disrupt its delicate balance, natural skincare works in harmony with your skin's natural processes. This means gentler, more nourishing care that delivers real results without causing irritation or harm.
Packed with Nutrients: Just like your body thrives on wholesome, nutrient-rich foods, your skin craves the goodness of natural ingredients. Extra Virgin Olive Oil, in particular, is a skincare superstar. Rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and essential fatty acids, it deeply moisturizes, softens, and protects your skin, leaving it glowing with health. And we formulate everything at Kosterina with carrier oils that help our signature EVOO get deeper into your skin without clogging pores.
Versatility at Its Finest: One of the best things about natural skincare is its versatility. From cleansing to moisturizing to treating specific skin concerns, there's a natural solution for every step of your routine.
Ultimately, we believe in prioritizing clean formulas that have been tried-and-true for centuries. Real ingredients are meant to nourish your skin and boost its natural function, never impede it. Treat your skin with the love that it deserves and get that glow. Your skin will thank you!
Who’s ready to commit to clean?
Peace, Love, and EVOO,
Katina & The Kosterina Team
