On the Wild Side at theCosmethics
On the Wild Side is a brand of 100% natural organic cosmetics manufactured directly from France. Vegan formulas, without essential oils and without synthetic preservatives.
A little history...
This brand comes from the exciting French forests, with plants harvested by hand in a wild and natural environment. With only three products when she started, she managed to revolutionize the beauty routine. It was founded by Anne-Sophie Nardy who, after having worked for a beauty company for 12 years, decided that it was time to change the concept of beauty. As it did? Simplifying your skin care routine and creating effective products in harmony with nature and your skin.
What phrase best defines this brand?
Its motto: - Ethics with security and transparency with the right price. What On the Wild Side wants to convey with these words is that if it is good for the skin, it is also good for internal well-being and for our planet.
What is wild harvesting?
Collecting wild plants has always been one of the main sources of food and medicine for people. Aromatic and medicinal plants play a fundamental role as the basis of traditional medicines and cosmetics, therefore the demand for aromatic and medicinal plants is constantly increasing.
This growing demand for wild plants poses significant challenges, both ecological and social. The pressure they put on vulnerable species can damage local ecosystems as well as harm the environment of the collectors themselves.
For this reason, collection and hunting must be carried out in a sustainable manner, in such a way that allows populations to continue to remain stable and have enough time to reproduce and grow healthily.
In this way, O n the Wild Side promotes responsible and sustainable harvesting with its products in order to promote new practices for this type of harvesting and thus preserve biodiversity. It is therefore 100% natural, vegan, organic, without essential oils or synthetic preservatives.
What wild plants do they interact with?
Each of their products is formulated with active ingredients from ancient trees, used for their cell regeneration properties and great detoxifying power. These properties will help you have beautiful, fresh and glowing skin. They come to life through birch sap and beech buds as they contain regenerating and draining properties.
Zero Waste
Its principles are based on reusing products so that they do not return to nature in the form of waste or garbage. On the Wild Side has decided not to use boxes as packaging. All containers are made from recyclable glass, with screw-on lids for easy recycling. Their boxes are made of cardboard from forests with an FSC certificate, this means that for every tree that is cut down, another tree is immediately replanted.
Our Favorite On the Wild Side Product: Exfoliating Facial Mask
This facial mask transmits a feeling of tranquility and harmony to the senses, it turns into milk when it comes into contact with water and works as an exfoliant to soften your skin and prevent irritation or redness. It gently eliminates impurities and smoothes the surface of the skin, thus accelerating the cell regeneration that we have talked so much about previously.
Like the day cream, it is a 100% natural and vegan product but it is also composed of:
- Very fine grains of rice with fruit acid.
- Sunflower oil for better skin nutrition.
- Carrot extract that helps achieve a faster and more uniform tan.
What type of exfoliation do you get with this mask?
- Mechanical, thanks to the elements contained in rice powder.
- Enzymatic, thanks to the fruit acids it contains (blueberry extract, sweet orange peel and lemon).
