Information on the content of the resource
The use of natural ingredients in the cosmetics industry has grown significantly over the past fifteen years, driven by growing consumer interest in health and well-being, as well as organic and fair trade products. This has led to increased demand for botanical ingredients. At the same time, this sector has experienced a significant turnaround with regard to ABS awareness and commitment to ethical sourcing practices. Realizing this new-found awareness in practice, however, is not always straightforward or simple.
