Just like every year, the professional association of ecological and organic cosmetics awarded its Trophies of Excellence. The ceremony was organized at Cosmébio’s General Assembly held in Paris last June 7, 2018.
For this fifth annual event, 18 candidates were competing in three different categories: • Sustainable development • Environment & biodiversity • Innovation To decide between them, Cosmébio used a panel of 99 consumers and the expertise of a jury of nine professionals. This year, two products were rewarded in each category. And the winners are…
