What’s the Codex Beauty code? Learn what makes Codex unique!

There’s been a lot of talk about transparency and natural ingredients in the beauty industry. At Codex Beauty, they began with a clean slate. Rather than incrementally make a blacklist of chemicals to extract from products, they drew inspiration from The Codex Alimentarius, a collection of internationally adopted food and health standards, and then developed their own set of core principles, guidelines and ethical codes of practice.

They call it the Codex Beauty Code. Here’s what it involves:

Each raw material is verified to meet defined standards that are in line with a product’s requirements and claims. Every raw material’s supplier, manufacturer and packaging material is carefully selected, tested and qualified to meet Codex Beauty’s high standard of quality. This is accomplished by thorough review of documentation and verification, including on-site audits.
