For more than twenty years, you’ve known us as ilike organic skin care and we’re so grateful for that trust. Recently, you may have noticed a small change on our packaging: it now reads ilike natural skin care.
So, what changed?
The short answer: almost nothing except for one word on the label.
The Heart of Our Formulas Remains the Same
Our commitment to purity, sustainability, and results hasn’t shifted an inch. We still rely on wild-harvested rosehips, nettle, birch, elderflower, and other botanicals gathered respectfully from pristine environments. These plants grow free from synthetic chemicals, GMOs, or human interference exactly as nature intended.
The only reason for the update is regulatory.
Government standards for the word “organic,” especially in the U.S. and California, now apply strictly to farm-registered crops that can be audited and certified through paperwork. Because our botanicals grow wild, not on cultivated farmland, they cannot legally carry the “organic” seal, even though they meet and often exceed its spirit.
Wild-Harvested ≠ Certified Organic
When you see “organic” on a label, it’s referring to a system of documentation: registered farmland, inspections, and a traceable supply chain. But wild plants don’t come with farm paperwork. They grow naturally in biodiverse ecosystems untouched by pesticides, fertilizers, or mass cultivation.
We chose to stay true to these wild sources rather than compromise by using plantation-grown versions just to qualify for a logo.
Certified, Tested, and Transparent
“Natural” does not mean unverified. Every ilike product is backed by multiple, science-based audits and certifications that guarantee safety, purity, and environmental care:
- COSMOS / BDIH: Verifies ingredient origin, purity, and responsible manufacturing practices aligned with Europe’s highest standards.
- Hungarian ÖKO & National Land Compliance: Confirms ethical wildcrafting and protection of native ecosystems in our country of origin.
- GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices): Ensures consistency, safety, and traceability in every jar.
- Bio Garancia Certification: Independent audits confirming our ecological and purity claims are evidence-based.
- Independent Lab Testing: Each batch undergoes microbiology, heavy metal, and pesticide testing for complete safety assurance.
- Cruelty-Free Standards: No animal testing, ever.
When “Natural” Means More Than a Label
Our wild approach often exceeds what farm certification can achieve:
- No synthetic pesticides, because nature already protects her balance.
- Biodiversity-first harvesting, we take only a fraction, ensuring regrowth.
- Gentle processing methods like cold-pressing and fermentation preserve nutrients.
- Traceable batches and full lab validation for every ingredient.
Transparency Is Our Promise
If you’re curious about what’s in your product, we’re happy to share available documentation, including Certificates of Analysis and audit summaries, wherever supplier confidentiality allows. Because true transparency isn’t a slogan; it’s a system.
The Bottom Line
We didn’t remove “organic” because we changed, we removed it because the world did. Regulations evolved, and we chose honesty over marketing convenience.
By embracing the word natural, we’re acknowledging that our ingredients are wilder than farm-grown and that’s exactly what makes them special.
Sustainable Packaging, Same Trusted Care
Our commitment to the planet extends beyond ingredients. ilike products now arrive in bottles made from 100% recycled plastic, and all packaging is fully recyclable under COSMOS environmental standards.
