Earth Hour, Earth Day, Recycle, Reduce & Reuse campaigns are obvious events that
signify the increasing awareness of human actions that directly or indirectly
affects the future of our Earth. These actions are in turn indirectly affecting
the future of our next generation as well, if they are even given a chance to
have one. We have the power to give them the future they deserved. YOU have the
power to do so.
Kanga Organics is about YOU & the Earth. Kanga Organics believes anyone can make
a difference to the future of our earth. It is only a matter of making a wise
decision, and taking a choice. We aim to provide information that is essential
for your knowledge, and we hope with that knowledge, YOU will be able to make
your own decision for your own health & the future of your next generation.
Commercialization of farming has gradually upset our ecological system over
these years, with the heavy industrial usage of insecticides, pesticides,
fungicides, herbicides & sewage sludge. Such crops flourished with abundance,
and look pretty on the surface, but what exactly is contained in them, are not
vitamins, nor antioxidants anymore, but merely remnants of what remains from
those chemicals that were used to cultivate them.
Naturally, cosmetic products with ingredients that originate from such farming
means can only do more harm than good. It takes time for one to learn the art of
recognizing ingredients that are harmful in any cosmetic products, but it is
definitely not impossible to do so. To make things easy for you, check out our
Ingredients To Avoid link. The information provided is only a pinch of salt, but
do not take it lightly at its face value. We encourage you to do your own
research and find your own answers. After all, it is your own skin and health
you’re watching out for.

How to know ‘Organic’?
Due to the increase in demand for an ‘Organic’ living,
more companies are making use of the market trend to put the words ‘Natural’ &
‘Organic’ on their cosmetic products, even when their products are not
officially certified by organic cosmetic certifiers, or even contain ingredients
far from being organic or even natural.
Check out Organizations Links for a main
list of certifying organic bodies that issues certified organic seals to
products containing certified organic ingredients.
Apart from being certified
organic, of course we cannot forget that for the sake of our beauty, we should
NEVER sacrifice the poor wonderful animals, and condemn them to cruel and
painful laboratory testing, so it is also as important to look out for certified
animal cruelty free seals.

Kanga’s Mission
Kanga Organics promises to seek out not only products with seals
of certifications, but at the same time takes painstaking efforts to go through
each and every single ingredients in every product imported against the
prohibited & restricted lists of ingredients under Singapore’s Health Science
Authority check list to ensure that all products imported are safe for all
consumers.
Kanga Organics products market research has also discovered brands
that though, without official certifications by organic cosmetic certifiers, the
manufacturers are honest and transparent with their ingredients listings for all
products with nothing to hide, and their ingredients were found to be
organically or sustainably grown. Ironically, there are certified organic
products even though with seals of certifications out there that still uses
synthetic chemical ingredients.
As such, at Kanga Organics, we focus on checking
the ingredients list, no matter what status of certification seals are printed
on the products. We are please to share this discovery of amazing range of
products from around the world with YOU, and we hope YOU will enjoy the
healthier, environmental & animal friendly choices available on Kanga Organics.
Remember, saving the future of the Earth starts with YOU, and every little
effort counts. YOU make up the Earth.
