Their products are 100% natural cosmetics and always made using as many ingredients obtained from certified organic or Demeter cultivation as possible. Made from unpolluted raw, natural ingredients Dr Hauschka doesn’t use any chemicals, microplastics, or synthetic preservatives. Dr. Hauschka also has sustainable partnerships all over the world from their shea butter which is produced from an organically certified collection area in Burkina Faso and their Damask rose oil comes from countries such as Afghanistan, where they are working with the World Hunger Organisation to offer around 700 farmers who now use organic methods an alternative to opium cultivation. Furthermore, Dr Hauschka’s biodynamic farm in southern Germany protects the plants, earth, and local wildlife.
