All LAMAV products are Certified Organic and have the Certified Organic seal by the OFC. For a product to be Certified Organic, it must contain a minimum of 70% Certified Organic ingredients—which are grown, processed and controlled according to strict standards. The Certified Organic seal of approval also provides you with the peace of mind that products are free range, cruelty-free, free from GMO’s, synthetic chemicals, petrochemicals, pesticides, herbicides, hormones, antibiotics, artificial colours and fragrances.

The main difference between Certified Organic and natural products is that Certified Organic means that most of the ingredients have to be Certified Organic—which means they are cultivated without the use of synthetic fertilisers, pesticides or other synthetic chemicals. Natural products however, require the ingredients to be natural—or not synthetic—but they don’t have to be grown or cultivated in the same way. While they may come from a natural source, they may not necessarily be organic.

No, we do not include any artificial fragrances or perfumes in our products. We incorporate only Certified Organic essential oils that contain medicinal and therapeutic benefits including anti-ageing, stimulating local circulation, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and anti-fungal.
