Overview
Logona Naturkosmetik (loosely translated as Logona Natural Cosmetics) is a skin care line based in Hanover, Germany, developed in the 1970s to meet the demands of Europeans in need of natural skin care alternatives. Logona claims all of its product ingredients are naturally-based and contain no harmful fragrances, and these products are widely sold all throughout Europe. This review will focus on Logona's anti-aging skin care line.
Logona Naturkosmetik currently is simply another skin care company focused on natural alternatives, but surprisingly enough, this brand is not as expensive as other skin care lines. Most creams are available for less than $10.00, an extremely affordable option for people seeking all-natural products. You won't find this brand in American stores, and you will probably have to travel to Europe to obtain these products (or shop online). Additionally, Logona claims to reduce all signs of aging and promote healthy, radiant skin, but it does not provide much clinical proof. Is this brand just name only or does it actually perform? It looks like it might, but their claims may be over-exaggerated.Product Details
Unfortunately Logona Naturkosmetik has not released an official ingredient list for any of their products, nor do they list any pertinent key ingredient information on their website. They only offer hints of what is contained in some of their products. This is not a good sign -- without ingredient information available, it is impossible to decipher if these products contain any allergen-causing ingredients. This might be unsafe to use for some, especially those with sensitive skin.
According to Logona Naturkosmetik, its Age Protection Day Cream (one of their most popular products) contains these key ingredients: Shea butter, broccoli seed oil, argan oil, aloe vera, samphira, white tea, vitamin E. The manufacturers claim that these ingredients improve the softness of your skin, protect it from damage, and keep skin looking young and vibrant. According to some studies, they are correct. Vitamin E is a key ingredient in improving the look of skin; additionally, white tea contains powerful antioxidants which help slow down the process of aging. According to these same studies, however, it is more potent when digested.
The Good
- Contains powerful antioxidants and vitamins, which help de-age the skin.
- Is very affordable.
The Bad
- A full ingredient list is not attainable; this means Logona Naturakosmetik products could be potentially dangerous to use.
- Is based only in Europe. Americans will need to purchase it online.
- Website does not fully explain how its products work to improve the skin's appearance.
The Bottom Line
This product line definitely has potential, and they make great use of their ingredients. It would benefit Logona Kosmetik to release more information about its ingredients so that these products can be appropriately evaluated for effectiveness. This might be a skin care line worth looking into further, especially if you desire a skin care line featuring useful, herbal products.
