Thank you for the kind words

I can’t give you a personal verdict on either Origins or Sophyto, because I haven’t actually used them. Sophyto have been doing a lot of online promotions, so I think there are people who’ve reviewed it. I’ve never got my sample At least on the paper they look good — pure and organic. So from that perspective they get top marks. They are certified by the Soil Association, meaning at least 95% of the ingredients are organic.

Origins Organic line is USDA certified, with 95% and up organic content. USDA certification is probably the most respected. It means the product contain no parabens, parrafin, petroleum products, synthetic colors or fragrances, genetically modified organisms (GMOs) or nanotechnology.

In short — both of these companies are accountable to a very high organic standards. But how effective they are — I don’t know. I would recommend, if you are not sure if the products are right for you, contact the companies and ask them to send you some free samples. Most companies have little packets of their products for customers to try.

I am starting to go organic and thus doing a lot research for the best line and I also started to use Origins products but I did not find any review on Origins and started to have doubt about the line. Also because one can find Origins products in shops which is needed espicially for makeup. Well, Anyways this is my first time on this website and I nearly spent whole day reading all the valuable information. Thank you .

Can you also give your verdict for some of the products of Sophyto line like you did forWeleda products. Thank you for all the information.
Huma.

Actually, Sophyto are very organic — about 95% of their ingredients are from organic source. And they are certified by one of the strictest certifying bodies out there. Guam is a different brand. Guam is a brand that can’t get certified organic because their seaweed isn’t, so they certified BDIH natural. Sophyto do not use seaweed, so they are certified organic.

Thanks for the tip on Sea Flora. I’ll check them out. I’m a pround CDN too

I found it particularly interesting what Syphoto had to say. They said becuase they mainly use seaweeds they couldnt get proper certification or organic certification. Well if you have your waters tested and seaweeds tested you can obtain organic certification. There is a company out of Canada: Seaflora Wild Organic Seaweed Skincare. It is the ONLY 100% certified organic line in the world. So yes, it is possible to go ALL the way and get it done properly. It costs alot of $ to do it and that is the problem these companies dont want to pay and they dont have time to track down ALL of their ingredients to ensure it is not GMO or synthetically derived. http://www.sea-flora.com
