Yage Organics

Yage Organics is a Czech natural facial skincare brand. Behind it stands its founder, Petra, and the formulations were developed in London together with cosmetic scientist Judy Berling. The name comes from the Amazon rainforest — it refers to the sacred drink of the indigenous Cofán people.

The difference lies in concentration. According to the maker, most products contain only active ingredients and use floral hydrosols in place of plain water. The brand states that its formulations are made without silicones, synthetic fragrance, parabens, mineral oils, palm oil, SLS and SLES; for formulations with floral and fruit waters it uses only preservatives approved under the COSMOS standard. Safety and quality are, according to the brand, verified by laboratory testing in the United Kingdom and Germany.
