ATLANTIC  OCEAN  A  SOURCE  OF  BEAUTY

The Atlantic Ocean off  Connemara, is not just spectacularly beautiful, it is also the source of the world’s most nourishing natural skincare solutions. Nurtured by the purest marine waters in Europe, a perfect habitat to produce the nutrient- rich natural sea algae that goes into every Irish Organics skincare product.

It was important for us to focus on organic, hand-harvested, renewable seaweed using sustainable harvesting techniques to create our range. We spent many years researching and developing organic products, travelling across Europe, meeting marine algae experts and professional cosmetic formulators. We were delighted to discover that the precise species of seaweed that we had been researching flourished off the west coast of Ireland.

This unique range of beauty products is made in Ireland with Irish-sourced ingredients. Completely natural beauty products, packed with the benefits of seaweed, including vitamins A, B,C, D, and E, proteins, amino acids, and a rich collection of minerals, iron, calcium, and iodine.

We partnered these quality resources with the finest naturally active botanical ingredients to create a unique, high-performance range that really works.

INSPIRED BY  NATURE

Healthy skin is a reflection of what you feed your body, inside and out. Irish Organics carefully source and select premium natural botanical ingredients to ensure our products are the purest and most potent.

We have always believed in the power of naturally active ingredients like Aloe Vera, Green Tea, Shea Butter, Apricot kernel and Avocado and the importance of  sourcing botanicals for their unique efficacy to ensure the quality of our precious ingredients.

Choosing organic ingredients ensures that there are no harsh chemicals added. Our products do not contain harmful chemicals like Parabens, Mineral Oils, Propylene Glycol, petroleum, silicone oil or Sodium Lauryl Sulfate.

NO ANIMAL TESTING

Irish Organics believe that all beauty and cosmetic products should be cruelty free.
Irish Organics skincare range does not include animal derivatives, we do not use any ingredients of animal origin, we do not test our products or ingredient on animals.
We are committed to the elimination of all animal testing on all cosmetic products and ingredients in the Cosmetic industry worldwide.

TAKING RESPONSIBILITY

We’re passionate about responsible sourcing. Our formulation and sourcing experts balance factors such as performance, sustainability and continuity of supply to determine the best source for us to use. We recognise our environmental impact and strive to reduce this wherever possible, considering everything from our packaging to the impact on the seabed, including harvesting seaweed using sustainable techniques.

OUR PACKAGING & BROCHURES

Irish Organics products are packaged using recyclable or biodegradable materials. Bottles and jars are made from easily recyclable materials such as HDPE. We constantly look for ways to make our packaging greener.

We love sharing our news with you and all our newsletters are sent via ezine / email to reduce our environmental impact. We use recyclable paper for our brochures. All our waste is composted on site.

REDUCE CARBON FOOTPRINT

Irish Organics continuously examine our production and supply chains to find any areas where there are meaningful opportunities to reduce water, energy, waste, amount of materials used. We focus on areas where real improvements can be made in greenhouse gas emissions. Transport, storage and distribution are carefully planned for maximum efficiency.

We take a balanced view of economic, social and environmental sustainability and carbon emissions are just one part of a life-cycle assessment.
