Overview: Natural cosmetics have gained significant consumer appeal over the last decade or so.as a result raw material suppliers have introduced ingredients obtained from a replenish able source such as marine and vegetable extracts. The latter i.e. replenish able is the operative word of differentiation for natural as compared to generics which are of synthetic origin. There has been many discussions regarding natural at the molecular and atomic levels among scientists and argument is that at the atomic level everything is composed of atoms ad molecules and therefore natural. The replenish able source description is likely the best fit using extracts and vegetable oils as a description. The latter being non-limiting as in its broadest sense natural means both replenish able and without chemical modification. The term naturally derived is also used to describe a natural base such as Vitamin c (ascorbic acid) which has been phosphated for color and hydrolytic stability.

The consumer perceives natural as mild and non-toxic coming from nature it must be non-toxic, however this is far from true. allergenic reactions are not uncommon using natural cosmetics. The natural movement is tied to the green movement and are synonymous. Natural and green are here to stay propelled by consumer demand.
