[article]  inPERSONAL CARE EUROPE > Vol. 12, N° 4 (09/2018) . - p. 70-71 Titre : Biobased testing required to screen 'natural' ingredients Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Haley Gershon, Auteur Année de publication : 2018 Article en page(s) : p. 70-71 Note générale : Bibliogr. Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Biocosmétiques Ingrédients cosmétiques Produits naturels Tests biologiques Index. décimale : 668.5 Parfums et cosmétiques Résumé : Cosmetic products often comprise petrochemical ingredients and non-biodegradable plastics such as microbeads. When cosmetics containing microbeads are used, the plastic gets rinsed off and can enter waterways. As consumers become more aware both of where their cosmetic products come from and where they end up, they tend to pay greater attention to product labels. As a result, consumer demand is flourishing for cosmetic products that are free from synthetic ingredients. The use of certain synthetic ingredients such as microbeads has become a global concern, leading several countries to limit or ban their inclusion in personal care products. These consumer trends and regulatory initiatives push manufacturers to shift to naturally sourced ingredients instead, however, the authenticity of 'natural' claims is often questioned. Biobased testing is a viable analytical tool for identifying presence of petrochemical derived ingredients such as microbeads and other additives which helps to substantiate natural claims and identify fraud.

Carbon-14 analysis : natural versus synthetic essential oil / Haley Gershon in PERSONAL CARE EUROPE, Vol. 13, N° 4 (09/2019)

[article]  inPERSONAL CARE EUROPE > Vol. 13, N° 4 (09/2019) . - p. 45-46 Titre : Carbon-14 analysis : natural versus synthetic essential oil Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Haley Gershon, Auteur Année de publication : 2019 Article en page(s) : p. 45-46 Note générale : Bibliogr. Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Carbone 14 Contrefaçon -- Lutte contre Huiles essentielles -- Analyse Produits commerciaux -- Contrefaçon Produits synthétiques Index. décimale : 668.5 Parfums et cosmétiques Résumé : As consumers favour natural essential oils over synthetic alternatives, the price of essential oil escalates, maily due to expensive production costs. The rising monetary value of plant oil tempts unscrupulus companies in the industry to produce and sell adulterated essential oils tainted with cheaper synthetic ingredients. The onus is on distributors and manufacturers downstream to identify these alduterated products before they reach the consumer market. In many cases, it is difficult to distinguish between naturally derived ingredients and synthetic alternatives. Natural product testing through carbon-14 analysis authenticates plant-sourced ingredients while also acting as a screening tool to detect synthetic alduterants manufactured from petrochemicals.

Certified content brings transparency to natural claims / Audrey Wesson in PERSONAL CARE EUROPE, Vol. 14, N° 2 (04/2020)  

[article]  inPERSONAL CARE EUROPE > Vol. 14, N° 2 (04/2020) . - p. 41-43 Titre : Certified content brings transparency to natural claims Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Audrey Wesson, Auteur ; Haley Gershon, Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Article en page(s) : p. 41-43 Note générale : Bibliogr. Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Biocosmétiques Consommateurs -- Préférences Cosmétiques -- Aspect de l'environnement Plantes -- Emploi en cosmétologie Produits naturels Index. décimale : 668.5 Parfums et cosmétiques Résumé : Natural cosmetics and personal care products are not just a fleeting trend but rather a movement that is disrupting the entire industry. The natural and organic personal care market is expected to be a $22 billion industry by 2024. Consumers all over the world are increasingly seeking more plant-based materials for nearly all aspects of their lives, and industries including packaging, energy, clothing, personal care and especially food are making the switch. The rise of plant-based eating is driven by multiple consumer concerns including reducing the environmental impact of meat production, protecting animal rights, and supporting a healthy diet. In the US between 2014 and 2017 there has been a 600% increase in Americans identifying as vegan. Even the term "plant-based" has transformed the vegan food space by making it more accessible to those who want to indulge in these healthier-for-youand-the-planet options but do not want to completely give up animal products. The increased inclusivity of veganism, vegetarianism, flexitarians and even juicing all are grounded in consumption of more plants. This trend – which is parallel and intertwined with the wellness trend — has manifested in the cosmetic industry in the demand for natural, plant-based ingredients and packaging.
