What your skin deserves to know.
European science, honestly shared. Every formula we carry meets EU cosmetic standards — formulated without the 1,600+ substances restricted abroad but still permitted in the US.
The BOTANĒ Difference
A curated selection of European-certified skincare formulated to the strictest cosmetic standards in the world.
Anyone who wants to know exactly what they are putting on their skin — and why it was chosen.
Formulated and produced in Europe under COSMOS NATURAL certification, verified by ECOCERT Greenlife.
Fulfilled from Charlotte, NC. No import duties. Direct to your door — at the same price, with the same standard.
Rooted in European Science
Every formula in our line is COSMOS NATURAL certified by ECOCERT Greenlife, with 99% natural-origin ingredients verified at every step of production. At the centre of our line is Bidens Pilosa — a botanical extract rooted in traditional use and supported by peer-reviewed research. A gentler alternative to retinol, without the redness or sensitivity.
Verified by ECOCERT Greenlife. Confirms natural-origin ingredients, sustainable sourcing, and production without harmful processes.
All formulas meet EC 1223/2009, which restricts over 1,600 substances not yet banned in the US.
No animal testing at any stage of development or production, verified across all supplier relationships.
Nikoloz T.
I started BOTANĒ after spending years frustrated by skincare that made promises it couldn't keep — and ingredients lists I couldn't parse. I knew the EU had stricter standards. I knew those formulas existed. I just wanted a way to get them to people who cared about the same things I did.
This isn't a brand built on trend cycles or influencer campaigns. It's built on the belief that what you put on your skin every morning should be exactly what it says it is — nothing more, nothing less.
How We Think
Three principles that shape every product decision we make — from ingredient selection to the language on the label.
Transparency
Full ingredient lists. Plain-language explanations. No proprietary blends or vague percentages. You should know what you are paying for.
Restraint
We will never claim more than our formulas can show. If the evidence is weak, we say so. If an ingredient is speculative, it is not in our products.
Standard
EU cosmetic compliance is our baseline, not our selling point. Every formula meets the same standard — regardless of price point or category.
The Standard We Hold Ourselves To
The EU restricts over 1,600 substances from cosmetics. The US restricts closer to eleven. That gap is not theoretical — it shapes what ends up on your skin. Every formula in our line is formulated to EU Cosmetics Regulation (EC 1223/2009), which operates under a precautionary principle: if an ingredient raises concern, it is restricted until proven safe.
We hold to that standard because we believe it is the right one — not because it is required where we operate.
How We Operate
Sustainability is not a campaign — it is a set of operational choices made across sourcing, production, and fulfilment.
99% natural-origin ingredients, verified at every step of production under COSMOS NATURAL certification.
Supplier relationships are reviewed for ethical and environmental compliance as a condition of continued partnership.
Packaging is designed to protect the formula — nothing more. No unnecessary layers, no single-use plastic where an alternative exists.
Cruelty-free at every stage — from ingredient development to finished product — across all supplier relationships.
