The Benefits Of Using Natural Extracts In Body Care

What are natural extracts?

There's a rising beauty trend for products including natural ingredients, with the hashtag #naturalskincare clocking up more than nine million hits on Instagram and 549.3m views on TikTok.

At Grace Cole, the use of natural ingredients is more than a trending topic, however. Potent plant chemistry harnessed in naturally derived ingredients power our formulations and enable Grace Cole to deliver on our commitment to producing high performance bath & body products. We carefully select natural ingredients which have scientifically proven benefits that we know are important to our customers.

There is also a social and environmental reason behind our use of these ingredients. A natural ingredient benefits a whole chain; the community involved in its growth, harvest, and processing. The more we use natural ingredients, the more money is generated for communities growing them.

What naturally derived ingredients are in Grace Cole products?

Every single one of our Grace Cole formulations contain a combination of different naturally derived ingredients which work hard for you and your skin. Below, we talk you through the natural extracts inside some our products and their benefits.
